Abstract
The invention relates to an isolated polypeptide with an glycosyl transferase enzymatic activity for producing dextrans with α(1→2) sidechains, comprising at least one region for bonding to glucan and a catalytically active region situated beyond the region bonding to glucan. The invention further relates to polynucleotides coding for said enzymes and vectors containing the same.
