CAZymes from the thermophilic fungus Thermoascus aurantiacus are induced by C5 and C6 sugars
Background Filamentous fungi are excellent lignocellulose degraders, which they achieve through producing carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes). CAZyme production is highly orchestrated and gene expression analysis has greatly expanded understanding of ...

N-glycan breakdown by bacterial CAZymes
Abstract The modification of proteins by N-glycans is ubiquitous to most organisms and they have multiple biological functions, including protecting the adjoining protein from degradation and facilitating communication or adhesion between cells, for example. Microbes have evolved CAZymes to deconstruct different types of N-glycans and

iCAZyGFADB: an insect CAZyme and gene function annotation database
Abstract With the continuous upgrading of high-throughput sequencing technology, a large amount of biological genome data has been deciphered and published. The research on functional genes of biological genomes urgently needs a collection of service websites with user-friendly and full annotation functions for a variety of gene function

The carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) genes of Trametes contribute to polysaccharide degradation. However, the comprehensive analysis of the composition of CAZymes and the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) of Trametes remain unclear. Here, we conducted

dbCAN-seq update: CAZyme gene clusters and substrates in microbiomes
Abstract Carbohydrate Active EnZymes (CAZymes) are significantly important for microbial communities to thrive in carbohydrate rich environments such as animal guts, agricultural soils, forest floors, and ocean sediments. Since 2017, microbiome sequencing and assembly have produced numerous metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs).

Genome-wide identification reveals conserved carbohydrate-active enzyme repertoire in termites
Termites play an important role as decomposers of organic matter in forests by utilizing their gut symbionts and associated carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) to digest wood materials. However, there is a limited understanding of the entire repertoire

Fungal ecological strategies reflected in gene transcription - a case study of two litter decomposers. [PDF]
Microbial communities interplay with their environment through their functional traits that can be a response or an effect on the environment. Here, we explore how a functional trait-the decomposition of organic matter, can be addressed based on genetic ...
