Structure-function analysis of plant fructosyltransferases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Fructans are an important class of plant carbohydrates that consist of linear or branched chains of fructosyl moieties. Their synthesis requires fructosyltransferases (FTs) that catalyze the transfer of fructosyl units from a donor substrate (sucrose ...

Electrically Readable Lateral Flow Assay Using Organic Transistors for Diagnostic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electrolyte‐gated organic field‐effect transistors (EGOFETs) are integrated with lateral flow (LF) paper fluidics to create a reusable, portable, and low‐cost point‐of‐care (PoC) diagnostic test. The devices are validated for Human Immunoglobulin G detection, achieving high sensitivity (0.1 fm), selectivity, and reproducibility with rapid results in 20–

New Structural Insights on Carbohydrate-active Enzymes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Glycoscience, 2007
Studies of the structure and function of Carbohydrate-Active enZymes (CAZymes) have made a great deal of progress over the last decade. The glycoside hydrolase (GH) family is a prominent class of CAZymes. There are more than 100 GH families, with wide variations in their 3 D structures (folds).

Dexime: A Selectively Enzyme‐Degradable Hydrogel for Protein Therapeutic Release

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A dextrin‐oxime hydrogel (dexime) is produced using ketone or aldehyde modified dextrin and tetra‐oxyamine modified poly(ethylene glycol). The rheological and mechanical properties of dexime are tunable. Dexime is injectable, cytocompatible, hydrolytically stable, and selectively degradable by α‐amylase.

The Phylogenomic Diversity of Herbivore-Associated Fibrobacter spp. Is Correlated to Lignocellulose-Degrading Potential

open access: yesmSphere, 2018
Members of the genus Fibrobacter are cellulose-degrading bacteria and common constituents of the gastrointestinal microbiota of herbivores. Although considerable phylogenetic diversity is observed among members of this group, few functional differences ...

Carbohydrate-active Enzymes from Extremophiles

open access: yesJournal of Applied Glycoscience, 2006
The term “extremophiles” is used for organisms that thrive under extreme conditions, and are designated the enzymes that are active and tolerant under extreme reaction conditions “extremozymes”. We have long been engaged in the screening, gene cloning, and industrial applications of alkaline enzymes from alkaliphilic bacilli.

Thiolated Polymers in 3D Bioprinting: Control of Gelation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Thiolated polymers are established as programmable bioinks for 3D bioprinting, integrating versatile crosslinking chemistries with redox‐responsive control. This work demonstrates how molecular design and external triggers define gelation kinetics, printability windows, and structural fidelity, enabling stable, high‐resolution constructs and advancing ...
