Abstract: Inulosucrase (E.C. 2.4.1.9) is a bacterial fructosyltransferase that synthesizes inulin-type fructooligosaccharide, using sucrose as a substrate. We modulated the size of fructooligosaccharide synthesized by Lactobacillus reuteri 121 inulosucrase using rational designed mutagenesis. Nine residues: D478,… read more here.
