What is Glucoamylase Kinetics from Mutant Aspergillus about?

This document summarizes a study that purified glucoamylases produced from wild-type and mutant strains of Aspergillus niger fungus. The mutant glucoamylase was found to have slightly lower molecular mass but twice the catalytic activity for hydrolyzing soluble starch compared to the wild-type enzyme. Thermodynamic analyses also indicated the mutant enzyme was more efficient. The results suggest that mutagenesis can alter enzymatic properties to improve activities like starch hydrolysis.
