Highly thermostable and alkaline α-amylase from a halotolerant-alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. AB68 α-amilase alcalina termoestável de Bacillus sp AB68 halotolerante-alcalifílico
An alkaliphilic and highly thermostable α-amylase producing Bacillus sp. was isolated from Van soda lake. Enzyme synthesis occurred at temperatures between 25ºC and 40ºC. Analysis of the enzyme by SDS-PAGE revealed a single band which was estimated to be 66 kDa. The enzyme was active in a b...
