The milk clotting activity of the mutant is increased compared to the non-mutant enzyme 754970 3.4.23.23 E13A the proteolytic activity of the mutant decreases remarkably to almost a half of that of non-mutant enzyme 754970 3.4.23.23 E13D the proteolytic activity of the mutant decreases remarkably to almost a half of that of non-mutant enzyme 754970 3.4.23.23 E13P the proteolytic activity of the mutant decreases remarkably to almost a half of that of non-mutant enzyme 754970 3.4.23.23 E13Q the proteolytic activity of the mutant decreases remarkably to almost a half of that of non-mutant enzyme 754970 3.4.23.23 G186D the proteolytic activity of the mutant is similar to the non-mutant enzyme. The milk clotting activity of the mutant is increased compared to the non-mutant enzyme 754970 3.4.23.23 G186D/E13D the mutant shows a significant milk-clotting activity. The mutant rennet can decrease hydrolysis of protein during ripening of cheese. The mutant has a reduction in thermostability along with a sharp decrease in proteolytic activity 754970 3.4.23.23 G186D/E13Q the mutant has a reduction in thermostability along with a sharp decrease in proteolytic activity 754970 3.4.23.23 G186D/E13Q the mutant shows a significant milk-clotting activity. The mutant rennet can decrease hydrolysis of protein during ripening of cheese. The mutant has a reduction in thermostability along with a sharp decrease in proteolytic activity 754970 3.4.23.23 L287G the mutant shows an increase in the ratio of clotting activity to proteolytic activity as compared to the wild type enzyme 755331 3.4.23.23 N331Q the mutant enzyme is not glycosylated -, 752456 3.4.23.23 T218A/T218S/L287G the mutations lead to a significant decrease in proteolytic activity compared to the wild type enzyme 755331 3.4.23.23 T218S the mutation causes a low thermostability and moderate increase in the clotting activity compared to the wild type enzyme. The mutant shows a 3.34fold increase in the ratio of clotting activity to proteolytic activity as compared to the wild type enzyme. The mutant can serve as a promising milk coagulant that contributes to an optimal flavor development in mature cheese 755331 3.4.23.23 Y75N crystallization data 667045
