Homology to peptide pattern for annotation of carbohydrate-active enzymes and prediction of function [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2017 Background Carbohydrate-active enzymes are found in all organisms and participate in key biological processes. These enzymes are classified in 274 families in the CAZy database but the sequence diversity within each family makes it a major task to ...

dbCAN3: automated carbohydrate-active enzyme and substrate annotation. [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Res, 2023 Abstract Carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) are made by various organisms for complex carbohydrate metabolism. Genome mining of CAZymes has become a routine data analysis in (meta-)genome projects, owing to the importance of CAZymes in bioenergy, microbiome, nutrition, agriculture, and global carbon recycling.
