Investigation of the determinants of thermal stability of the nitrile hydratase from Geobacillus pallidus RAPc8

The mechanisms of thermal stability have been a long studied subject for many years with the aim of enhancing thermal stability of protein molecules to enhance their application in industry. The nitrile hydratases group of enzymes catalyse the hydrolysis of nitriles to amides using an exothermic cat...
