A carbohydrate-binding family 48 module enables feruloyl esterase action on polymeric arabinoxylan

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2019
Feruloyl esterases (EC 3.1.1.73), belonging to carbohydrate esterase family 1 (CE1), hydrolyze ester bonds between ferulic acid (FA) and arabinose moieties in arabinoxylans.

The active site of a carbohydrate esterase displays divergent catalytic and noncatalytic binding functions. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2009
Multifunctional proteins, which play a critical role in many biological processes, have typically evolved through the recruitment of different domains that have the required functional diversity.

Understanding the structural and functional properties of carbohydrate esterases with a special focus on hemicellulose deacetylating acetyl xylan esterases [PDF]

Mycology, 2018
Acetyl and methyl esterifications are two major naturally found substitutions in the plant cell-wall polysaccharides. The non-cellulosic plant cell-wall polysaccharides such as pectin and hemicellulose are differentially esterified by the O-acetyl and ...

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

Electronic 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.

Multimodular fused acetyl–feruloyl esterases from soil and gut Bacteroidetes improve xylanase depolymerization of recalcitrant biomass

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background Plant biomass is an abundant and renewable carbon source that is recalcitrant towards both chemical and biochemical degradation. Xylan is the second most abundant polysaccharide in biomass after cellulose, and it possesses a variety of ...

Structure of a carbohydrate esterase from Bacillus anthracis [PDF]

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2006
Family 4 carbohydrate esterases (CEs) catalyse the N- or O-deacetylation of substrates such as acetylated xylan, chitin, and peptidoglycan. CEs are classified into 14 families by sequence homology (see http://afmb.cnrs-mrs.fr/CAZY1). Family 4 is by far the largest of the CE families, with over 1000 open reading frames.
