A novel cold-adapted esterase FE2495 from Antarctic Flavobacterium ardleyense A2-1: Biochemical characterization and structural basis for cold-adaptation.
Cold-adapted enzymes from microorganisms living in polar zones represent promising biocatalysts for low-temperature applications. In this study, we identified a novel esterase, FE2495, from the Antarctic bacterium Flavobacterium ardleyense A2-1 and investigated underlying mechanisms for its cold-adaptive properties. Th...
