Biochemical Characterization and Degradation Pattern of a Novel Endo-Type Bifunctional Alginate Lyase AlyA from Marine Bacterium Isoptericola halotolerans

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2018
Alginate lyases are important tools to prepare oligosaccharides with various physiological activities by degrading alginate. Particularly, the bifunctional alginate lyase can efficiently hydrolyze the polysaccharide into oligosaccharides.

Alginate Oligosaccharides Inhibit Fungal Cell Growth and Potentiate the Activity of Antifungals against Candida and Aspergillus spp. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The oligosaccharide OligoG, an alginate derived from seaweed, has been shown to have anti-bacterial and anti-biofilm properties and potentiates the activity of selected antibiotics against multi-drug resistant bacteria.

Consequences of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator mutations on inflammatory cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent studies in cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane regulator (CFTR) mutations and function have shed light on its involvement in disease progression. The extent of cell and tissue distribution of CFTR facilitates systemic dysfunction of ion transport ...

Pathogen-induced defense and innate immunity in macroalgae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Animals and vascular plants are known to defend themselves facultatively against pathogens, with innate receptors mediating their resistance. Macroalgal defense against microorganisms, in contrast, has until recently been regarded mainly as constitutive.

Approaches in biotechnological applications of natural polymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Natural polymers, such as gums and mucilage, are biocompatible, cheap, easily available and non-toxic materials of native origin. These polymers are increasingly preferred over synthetic materials for industrial applications due to their intrinsic ...

Continuous Packed Bed Reactor with Immobilized β-Galactosidase for Production of Galactooligosaccharides (GOS) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The β-galactosidase from Bacillus circulans was covalently attached to aldehyde-activated (glyoxal) agarose beads and assayed for the continuous production of galactooligosaccharides (GOS) in a packed-bed reactor (PBR).

Preparation and structure elucidation of alginate oligosaccharides degraded by alginate lyase from Vibro sp. 510 [PDF]

open access: yesCarbohydrate Research, 2004
Alginate that was purified from the fermentation solution of marine bacteria Vibro sp. 510 under specific reaction conditions was hydrolyzed by alginate lyase. Seven oligosaccharides, including di-, tri- and tetrasaccharides, were isolated through low-pressure, gel-permeation chromatography (LP-GPC) and semipreparative strong-anion exchange (SAX) fast ...
