Abstract
Random mutations were introduced into recombinant barley beta-amylase by modified PCR to increase its thermostability. Two clones were obtai ned. One was found to have a change of Ser-351 to Pro and another, a c hange of Ala-376 to Ser, and 2.3 degrees C and 1.0 degrees C increases , respectively, in the thermostabilities compared with that of native recombinant beta-amylase.
