Unravelling the hidden power of esterases for biomanufacturing of short-chain esters
Scientific Reports, 2023 Microbial production of esters has recently garnered wide attention, but the current production metrics are low. Evidently, the ester precursors (organic acids and alcohols) can be accumulated at higher titers by microbes like Escherichia coli. Hence, we

Carbohydrate esterases involved in deacetylation of food components by the human gut microbiota
Essays in Biochemistry, 2023 Abstract Non-carbohydrate modifications such as acetylations are widespread in food stuffs as well as they play important roles in diverse biological processes. These modifications meet the gut environment and are removed from their carbohydrate substrates by the resident microbiota.

Bioinformatic characterisation of genes encoding cell wall degrading enzymes in the Phytophthora parasitica genome [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: A critical aspect of plant infection by the majority of pathogens is penetration of the plant cell wall. This process requires the production and secretion of a broad spectrum of pathogen enzymes that target and degrade the many complex ...

AMB Express, 2022 Acetylxylan esterase plays a crucial role in xylan hydrolysis as the acetyl side-groups restrict endoxylanase action by stearic hindrance. In this study, an acetylxylan esterase (AXE-HAS10: 960 bp & 319 a.a) putative ORF from Halalkalibacterium ...

Carbohydrate esterases of family 2 are 6‐O‐deacetylases
FEBS Letters, 2009 Three acetyl esterases (AcEs) from the saprophytic bacteria Cellvibrio japonicus and Clostridium thermocellum, members of the carbohydrate esterase (CE) family 2, were tested for their activity against a series of model substrates including partially acetylated gluco‐, manno‐ and xylopyranosides.

Analysis of a conserved cellulase transcriptional regulator reveals inducer-independent production of cellulolytic enzymes in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]
, 2013 Cellulose is recalcitrant to deconstruction to glucose for use in fermentation strategies for biofuels and chemicals derived from lignocellulose. In Neurospora crassa, the transcriptional regulator, CLR-2, is required for cellulolytic gene expression and

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.This review highlights recent advances in integrating biocatalysis and chemocatalysis in continuous flow to create streamlined, sustainable processes. It examines chemo‐enzymatic cascades combining at least one enzymatic and one chemical step, discusses challenges such as enzyme immobilization, leaching, and reactor clogging, and presents solutions ...
