Screening glycosynthase activity : We report the cloning and characterization of a new glycosynthase Cel5A:E307G from a family 5 glycosynthase by using a chemical complementation LEU2 enrichment assay. This enzyme catalyzes the efficient synthesis of an endo ‐β‐1,3‐glycosidic linkage between lactose‐fluoride donor and p ‐nitrophenyl β‐cellobioside acceptor substrates.
