Improvement of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase biosynthesis by recombinant Lactococcus lactis NZ:NSP:CGT

Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) is a distinctive enzyme that has the capability of producing cyclodextrin (CD) from starch. The CD as the product of CGTase has numerous applications in various industries such as foods, cosmetics and toiletries, textiles and agrochemistry. Therefore, CGTase...

The maximum CGTase activity and productivity obtained by this carbon source were 7.99 U/mL and 1 U/mL.h, respectively.
