Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9803639A1] A fungal glucoamylase including a mutation pair Asn20Cys coupled with Ala27Cys forming a disulfide bond between the two members of the pair. The mutation provides increased thermal stability and reduced isomaltose formation to the enzyme. A fungal glucoamylase including a 311-314Loop mutation, wherein reduced isomaltose formation is provided by the mutation, is also provided. A fungal glucoamylase, including a mutation Ser411Ala wherein increased pH optimum and reduced isomaltose formation is provided by the mutation, is also provided. Combinations of the mutations in engineered glucoamylases are also provided as are combinations with other glucoamylase mutations that provide increased thermal stability, increased pH optimum and reduced isomaltose formation for cumulative improvements in the engineered glucoamylases.
