Cross-linked enzyme crystals.

Abstract:

:The active site of cross-linked enzyme crystals can be further modified by chemical means, yielding a new type of chemically engineered enzyme. In the past year, the characteristics of cross-linked protein crystals as microporous materials have been studied and used as stationary phases in chromatographic separations.
