Screening and Isolation of Cyclodextin Glucanotransferase Producing Fungi From Selected UNIMAS AAS Collection
Cyclodextrin (CDs) is a cyclic homogenous oligosaccharide, synthesized from starch by an enzyme called cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase, EC 2.4. 1. 19) via a process called intramolecular transglycosylation in microorganism. CGTase is produced mainly by bacteria and recent finding shows that...
