Directed evolution of phosphotriesterase for detoxification of the nerve agent VX
Phosphotriesterase (PTE) isolated from the soil bacterium Flavobacterium sp. is a member of the amidohydrolase superfamily. PTE catalyzes the hydrolysis of a broad spectrum of organophosphate triesters including the insecticide paraoxon, and the chemical warfare agents; GF, sarin, and soman. In addi...
