Global Distribution of Carbohydrate Utilization Potential in the Prokaryotic Tree of Life
mSystems, 2022 Microorganisms dominate all ecosystems on Earth and play a key role in the turnover of organic matter. By producing enzymes, they degrade complex carbohydrates, facilitating the recycling of nutrients and controlling the carbon cycle.

Using Carbohydrate Interaction Assays to Reveal Novel Binding Sites in Carbohydrate Active Enzymes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Carbohydrate active enzymes often contain auxiliary binding sites located either on independent domains termed carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs) or as so-called surface binding sites (SBSs) on the catalytic module at a certain distance from the active ...

Lentinus crinitus response to blue light on carbohydrate-active enzymes
Bioscience Journal, 2020 Fungi are capable of sensing light from ultraviolet to far-red and they use light as a source of information about the environment anticipating stress and adverse conditions. Lentinus crinitus is a lignin-degrading fungus which produces laccase and other

Bacteriophage-encoded virion-associated enzymes to overcome the carbohydrate barriers during the infection process [PDF]
, 2017 Bacteriophages are bacterial viruses that infect the host after successful receptor recognition and adsorption to the cell surface. The irreversible adherence followed by genome material ejection into host cell cytoplasm must be preceded by the passage ...

A long noncoding RNA promotes cellulase expression in Trichoderma reesei
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2018 Background Due to its capability to secrete large quantities of plant biomass degrading enzymes (PBDE), Trichoderma reesei is widely applied for industrial purposes. In nature, expression of PBDE is efficiently regulated in this fungus.
