Unraveling mannan biosynthesis in poplar and spruce: functional characterization of Cellulose Synthase‐Like family A (CSLA) genes

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 282-298, January 2026.
Summary Hemicelluloses are key chemical constituents of plant cell walls, influencing structure, strength, and interactions between cellulose and lignin. While xylan has been widely studied and shown to affect cell wall integrity, the function of mannan remains largely unexplored.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

FEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 23, Page 3417-3443, December 2025.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

A Preliminary and Comparative Study on the Valorization of Marang (Artocarpus odoratissimus Blanco) Fruit Waste Through Enzyme‐Assisted Pectin Extraction

Food Bioengineering, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 428-446, December 2025.
Functional pectin that was produced by enzyme‐assisted extraction of marang (Artocarpus odoratissimus Blanco) peel and core demonstrated promising physico‐chemical and functional properties, and cellulase and xylanase were found to be the most effective enzymes in improving the yield and quality.

Comparison of natural hemicellulose and chemically acetylated xylan as substrates for the determination of acetyl-xylan esterase activity in Aspergilli

Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 1990
Abstract Native hemicellulose obtained as a result of an aqueous phase thermochemical treatment of aspen wood was tested as a substrate for the determination of acetyl-xylan esterase activities of a number of Aspergilli cultures. The native hemicellulose contained about 60% xylose, of which every two out of three xylose residues were acetylated ...

Xylanase and Acetyl Xylan Esterase Activities of XynA, a Key Subunit of the Clostridium cellulovorans Cellulosome for Xylan Degradation [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2002
ABSTRACT The Clostridium cellulovorans xynA gene encodes the cellulosomal endo-1,4-β-xylanase XynA, which consists of a family 11 glycoside hydrolase catalytic domain (CD), a dockerin domain, and a NodB domain.
