Temperature optimum (IMAGE)
Caption
View of the part of the enzyme that controls the temperature optimum. The loop region that is shown in dark blue is from the Antarctic bacterium and that shown in red from the pig enzyme. By introducing mutations into the Antarctic structure the loop could be moved towards the pig structure and the temperature optimum raised.
