Abstract
The invention relates to a cellobiose phosphorylase, which catalyzes, among other things, the synthesis of cellobiose from glucose 1-phosphate and glucose. The cellobiose phosphorylase according to the invention can be understood as a mutation of the cellobiose phosphorylase from Cellulomonas uda. In comparison to cellobiose phosphorylase of the wild type, the cellobiose phosphorylase according to the invention is distinguished by improved activity and process stability, in particular temperature stability, and lower product inhibition and therefore is especially suitable for use in industrial processes.
