Functional metagenomic discovery and characterisation of CAZymes by microfluidic methods
Enzymes are the engines of life and the ideal reagents for efficient, sustainable biocatalytic processes. However, the compendium of currently known enzymes does not cater for all desirable activities or exhibit the required properties. Therefore, the discovery and thorough characterisation of new biocatalysts is imperative to smoothen the path for a ...

Unlocking soybean meal pectin recalcitrance using a multi-enzyme cocktail approach
Pectin is a complex plant heteropolysaccharide whose structure and function differ depending on its source. In animal feed, breaking down pectin is essential, as its presence increases feed viscosity and reduces nutrient absorption.

High-throughput CAZyme production in Aspergillus oryzae
To support the transition to a green economy, novel industrial enzymes are necessary. Enzymes of particular interest in this context are Carbohydrate-Active EnZymes (CAZymes). Novel CAZymes targeting specific substrates are in great demand, and genome sequences show that there is a vast repertoire of uncharacterized CAZyme genes, which may deliver the ...
