Optimization of recombinant amylase expression using response surface methodology (RSM)

The Anoxybaccilus DT3-1 is a newly found bacterium that is able to express amylase. The gene that encodes the amylase was recently cloned and expressed in E. coli system. However, the expression level was far too low to be used. The main objective of this study is to enhance the recombinant amylase...
