Abstract
The present invention relates to trehalose phosphorylases which are useful for the industrial production of trehalose-analogs and glycosyl phosphates. More specifically, the invention discloses trehalose phosphorylases which are mutated in specific amino acid regions. These specific mutations result in modified substrate specificities of the enzymes. In addition, the present invention discloses a wild type trehalose phosphorylase from the marine organism, and mutated types thereof, which are highly thermostable and have a broad acceptor and donor specificity.
