Maltose 193-200 TEM-1 beta-lactamase Escherichia coli 65-84 15555998-2 2004 The gene encoding TEM1 beta-lactamase was circularly permuted in a random fashion and subsequently randomly inserted into the gene encoding Escherichia coli maltose binding protein. Maltose 157-164 TEM-1 beta-lactamase Escherichia coli 18-37 14741221-7 2004 For one of these enzymes, the presence of maltose increased k(cat) by 70% and k(cat)/K(m) by 80% and resulted in kinetic parameters that were almost identical to TEM-1 beta-lactamase. Maltose 42-49 TEM-1 beta-lactamase Escherichia coli 162-182
