Rational engineering of a mesohalophilic carbonic anhydrase to an extreme halotolerant biocatalyst

Enzymes expressed by highly salt-tolerant organisms show many modifications compared with salt-affected counterparts including biased amino acid and lower α-helix content, lower solvent accessibility and negative surface charge. Here, we show that halotolerance can be generated in an enzyme solely b...
