Optimum temperature characteristics and stability against temperature of BglA. (a) Enzyme activity of BglA (●) plotted against different temperatures (30–75°C). Maximum activity can be noticed at an optimum temperature, i.e., 50°C. (b) residual activity percentage of BglA (●) is plotted after incubation at different temperatures irrelatively and a sharp decrease in activity can be seen after 60°C.
