Alginate Lyases: Sources, Mechanism of Activity and Potencial Application
Alginate lyases are group of enzymes which catalyze depolymerization of alginate into oligosaccharides. Alginate lyase have been widely used in many applications such as in production of bioactive oligosaccharides, control of polysaccharide rheological ...

Alginate synthesis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: the role of AlgL (alginate lyase) and AlgX [PDF]
Previous studies localized an alginate lyase gene (algL) within the alginate biosynthetic gene cluster at 34 min on the Pseudomonas aeruginosa chromosome. Insertion of a Tn501 polar transposon in a gene (algX) directly upstream of algL in mucoid P. aeruginosa FRD1 inactivated expression of algX, algL, and other downstream genes, including algA.

Modeling the architecture of depolymerase-containing receptor binding proteins in Klebsiella phages [PDF]
Klebsiella pneumoniae carries a thick polysaccharide capsule. This highly variable chemical structure plays an important role in its virulence. Many Klebsiella bacteriophages recognize this capsule with a receptor binding protein (RBP) that contains a ...

Expression and Characterization of an Alginate Lyase and Its Thermostable Mutant in Pichia pastoris
Alginate is one of the most abundant polysaccharides in algae. Alginate lyase degrades alginate through a β-elimination mechanism to produce alginate oligosaccharides with special bioactivities. Improving enzyme activity and thermal stability can promote
