Abstract
A thermostable beta -glycosidase (Tn-gly) from Thermus nonproteolyticus HG1 02 has been cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant e nzyme, with a molecular mass of 48.9 kDa, was purified to homogeneity. It c an hydrolyze a wide range of oligosaccharides and perform transglycosylatio n. Crystals of the recombinant enzyme were grown by the hanging-drop vapour -diffusion technique with MPD and NaCl as precipitants. They belong to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 66.7, b = 94.6, c = 176.5 Angstrom.
