Abstract
Immobilization of Haloalkane dehalogenase LinB from Sphingobium japonicum UT26 for Biotechnological Applications
Haloalkane dehalogenases are enzymes capable of converting a broad range of aliphatic halogenated compounds to corresponding alcohols. These dehalogenase-based biotransformations are attractive for various biological processes, e.g. biocatalysis, bioremediation and detoxification, which often require protein immobilization.
