Abstract: The mutation, conferring streptomycin and deoxyglucose resistance on cells, had profound effect on the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters inferring thermostabilization of ß-glucosidase from mutant 51 SMr of Cellulomonas biazotea. Free energy of activation for substrate binding, enthalpy and entropy of activation for irreversible denaturation of mutant-derived enzyme were decreased compared with enzyme from wild organism suggesting that the mutation partly stabilized the enzyme and that mutation made it more reactive.
