Patent ID: 7604969

Claim:
An isolated mutant glucose dehydrogenase of SEQ ID NO: 3, wherein said mutant glucose dehydrogenase consists of a replacement of the amino acid residue at position 365 with another amino acid residue, and/or consists of a substitution, deletion, insertion or addition of 1 to 10 amino acid residues other than the amino acid residue at position 365 with another or other amino acid residue at the 324th, 326th, 333rd, 334th, 368th, 369th, 376th, 377th, 418th, 419th, 436th, 433rd, 448th, 472nd, 475th, 525th or 529th positions in the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3, wherein said mutant glucose dehydrogenase has an increased substrate specificity to glucose compared to the glucose dehydrogenase of SEQ ID NO:3.
