Observations of reaction intermediates and the mechanism of aldose-ketose interconversion by D-xylose isomerase. [PDF]
Crystallographic studies of D-xylose isomerase (D-xylose ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.5) incubated to equilibrium with substrate/product mixtures of xylose and xylulose show electron density for a bound intermediate. The accumulation of this bound intermediate shows that the mechanism is a non-Michaelis type. Carrell et al. [Carrell, H. L., Glusker, J. P.,

Xylose isomerase from Piromyces:Characterization and engineering for improving S. cerevisiae-based lignocellulosic bioethanol production [PDF]
Lignocellulosic bioethanol has been recognized as a possible fossil fuel alternative. This so-called “second-generation” bioethanol has gained growing interest as it can be produced using agricultural waste material or side products in the food industry ...

Tin-containing zeolites are highly active catalysts for the isomerization of glucose in water [PDF]
The isomerization of glucose into fructose is a large-scale reaction for the production of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS; reaction performed by enzyme catalysts) and recently is being considered as an intermediate step in the possible route of biomass ...

Structure-based directed evolution improves S. cerevisiae growth on xylose by influencing in vivo enzyme performance [PDF]
Background: Efficient bioethanol production from hemicellulose feedstocks by Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires xylose utilization. Whereas S. cerevisiae does not metabolize xylose, engineered strains that express xylose isomerase can metabolize xylose by

Sn-Beta zeolites with borate salts catalyse the epimerization of carbohydrates via an intramolecular carbon shift [PDF]
Carbohydrate epimerization is an essential technology for the widespread production of rare sugars. In contrast to other enzymes, most epimerases are only active on sugars substituted with phosphate or nucleotide groups, thus drastically restricting ...

Structural Insights into the Epimerization of β-1,4-Linked Oligosaccharides Catalyzed by Cellobiose 2-Epimerase, the Sole Enzyme Epimerizing Non-anomeric Hydroxyl Groups of Unmodified Sugars [PDF]
Cellobiose 2-epimerase (CE) reversibly converts d-glucose residues into d-mannose residues at the reducing end of unmodified β1,4-linked oligosaccharides, including β-1,4-mannobiose, cellobiose, and lactose.

Covariation between oxygen and hydrogen stable isotopes declines along the path from xylem water to wood cellulose across an aridity gradient [PDF]
Oxygen and hydrogen isotopes of cellulose in plant biology are commonly used to infer environmental conditions, often from time series measurements of tree rings.
