Optimization of Protease Secretion in Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis by Screening of Homologous and Heterologous Signal Peptides
ABSTRACT Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis are widely used for the large-scale industrial production of proteins. These strains can efficiently secrete proteins into the culture medium… Expand

Directed evolution of a bacterial α‐amylase: Toward enhanced pH‐performance and higher specific activity
α‐Amylases, in particular, microbial α‐amylases, are widely used in industrial processes such as starch liquefaction and pulp processes, and more recently in detergency. Due to the need for… Expand

An efficient transformation method for Bacillus subtilis DB104
Bacillus subtilis strains are used for extracellular expression of enzymes (i.e., proteases, lipases, and cellulases) which are often engineered by directed evolution for industrial applications. B.… Expand

Surface charge engineering of a Bacillus gibsonii subtilisin protease
In proteins, a posttranslational deamidation process converts asparagine (Asn) and glutamine (Gln) residues into negatively charged aspartic (Asp) and glutamic acid (Glu), respectively. This process… Expand
