Discovery and Characterization of Microbial Esterases for Fiber Modification
Carboxyl esterases, particularly arylesterases, were predicted from 16 microbial genomes, and then expressed in E. coli. Of the more than 175 cloned genes, 86 were expressed in soluble form. These were screened for activity using a range of both commercial and natural substrates. Forty-eight protein...
