The dynamic light scattering, CD and NMR characterizations indicate that the wild‐type (WT) and STI/A mutant share similar structural and dimerization properties, thus implying that in addition to dimerization, the extra domain might have other mechanisms to regulate the catalytic machinery. Based on this, a super-active triple-mutant STI ⁄ A with a 3.7-fold activity enhancement was thus engineered by mutating residues Ser284, Thr285 and Ile286 to Ala. The dynamic light scattering, CD and NMR characterizations indicate that the wild-type (WT) and STI ⁄ A mutant share similar structural and dimerization properties, thus implying that in addition to dimerization, the extra domain might have other mechanisms to regulate the catalytic machinery. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) was used to measure the apparent molecular mass resulting from monomer-dimer equilibrium of the wild-type and mutated proteases at three different NaCl concentrations. ./cache/cord-320175-w00rcvd8.txt ./txt/cord-320175-w00rcvd8.txt
