Biochemical and structural features of diverse bacterial glucuronoyl esterases facilitating recalcitrant biomass conversion

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Lignocellulose is highly recalcitrant to enzymatic deconstruction, where the recalcitrance primarily results from chemical linkages between lignin and carbohydrates.

Metagenomics approach to identify lignocellulose-degrading enzymes in the gut microbiota of the Chinese bamboo rat cecum

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2021
Background: Lignocellulose is considered a renewable organic material, but the industrial production of biofuel from lignocellulose is challenging because of the lack of highly active hydrolytic enzymes.

Crystal structure and functional characterization of an oligosaccharide dehydrogenase from Pycnoporus cinnabarinus provides insights into fungal breakdown of lignocellulose

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background Fungal glucose dehydrogenases (GDHs) are FAD-dependent enzymes belonging to the glucose-methanol-choline oxidoreductase superfamily. These enzymes are classified in the “Auxiliary Activity” family 3 (AA3) of the Carbohydrate-Active enZymes ...

CAZac: an activity descriptor for carbohydrate-active enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research
Abstract The Carbohydrate-Active enZYme database (CAZy; www.cazy.org) has been providing the reference classification of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) for >30 years. Based on literature survey, the sequence-based families of CAZymes are enriched with functional data by using the International Union of Biochemistry and ...

Modelling Reactions Catalysed by Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Abstract Carbohydrate polymers are ubiquitous in biological systems and their roles are highly diverse, ranging from energy storage over mechanical stabilisation to mediating cell-cell or cell-protein interactions. The functional diversity is mirrored by a chemical diversity that results from the high flexibility of how different sugar ...

Cazypedia : carbohydrate-active enzymes, an introduction [PDF]

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2011
CAZypedia is an online, community-driven effort to assemble a comprehensive encyclopedia of the enzymes and binding proteins involved in the synthesis and degradation of complex carbohydrates. An evolving encyclopedia of carbohydrate-active enzymes – ”CAZymes” CAZypedia is inspired by, and closely connected with, the actively curated CAZy Database (www.

Systems approaches to predict the functions of glycoside hydrolases during the life cycle of Aspergillus niger using developmental mutants ∆brlA and ∆flbA.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
BackgroundThe filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger encounters carbon starvation in nature as well as during industrial fermentations. In response, regulatory networks initiate and control autolysis and sporulation.
