ABSTRACT:
An α-glucan phosphorylase having improved thermostability, which obtained by modifying natural α-glucan phosphorylase, and a method for producing this α-glucan phosphorylase having improved thermostability are provided. The natural α-glucan phosphorylase is derived from a plant, this α-glucan phosphorylase having improved thermostability has an amino acid residue which is different from that of the natural α-glucan phosphorylase in at least one position selected from the group consisting of a position corresponding to position4in a motif sequence1L or1H, a position corresponding to position4in a motif sequence2, and a position corresponding to position7in a motif sequence3L or3H, and wherein the enzyme activity of α-glucan phosphorylase having improved thermostability at 37° C., after heating in a 20 mM citrate buffer (pH 6.7) at 60° C. for 10 minutes, is 20% or more of the enzyme activity of the α-glucan phosphorylase having improved thermostability at 37° C., before heating.
