Article Synopsis
- A bacterial carbonic anhydrase (CA) was purified from Corynebacterium flavescens to convert CO into calcium carbonate (CaCO), which can be used in industries such as papermaking, construction, and steel.
- The purified CA has a molecular mass of 29.00 kDa, optimal activity at 35 °C and pH 7.5, and demonstrated a significant CO conversion efficiency of 65.05 mg CaCO/mg protein.
- The study also analyzed the CA's kinetics and inhibition patterns, noting that metals like Na, K, Mn, and Al inhibit its activity, while Zn and Fe offer slight enhancement, with further insights gained from in silico analysis of its active site and
