Tannase catalyses the hydrolysis of the galloyl ester bond of tannins to release gallic acid. It belongs to the serine esterases and has wide applications in the food, feed, beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The tannase from Lactobacillus plantarum was cloned, expressed and purified. The protein was crystallized by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method with microseeding. The crystals belonged to space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a = 46.5, b = 62.8, c = 83.8 Å, α = 70.4 ...[more]
