A pipeline for targeted metagenomics of environmental bacteria. [PDF]

, 2020
BackgroundMetagenomics and single cell genomics provide a window into the genetic repertoire of yet uncultivated microorganisms, but both methods are usually taxonomically untargeted.

A special issue of Essays in Biochemistry on current advances about CAZymes and their impact and key role in human health and environment.

Essays in Biochemistry, 2023
Carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) and their biochemical characterization have been the subject of extensive research over the past ten years due to their importance to carbohydrate metabolism in different biological contexts.

dbCAN-seq update: CAZyme gene clusters and substrates in microbiomes

Nucleic Acids Research, 2022
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).

Comprehensive Genome Analysis of Cellulose and Xylan-Active CAZymes from the Genus Paenibacillus: Special Emphasis on the Novel Xylanolytic Paenibacillus sp. LS1

Microbiology spectrum, 2023
Xylan is the most abundant hemicellulose in the lignocellulosic (plant) biomass that requires cooperative deconstruction by an arsenal of different xylanolytic enzymes to produce xylose and xylooligosaccharides.

Bioinformatic characterisation of genes encoding cell wall degrading enzymes in the Phytophthora parasitica genome [PDF]

, 2016
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 ...

Potential and expression of carbohydrate utilization by marine fungi in the global ocean

Microbiome, 2021
Background Most of the research on the cycling of carbon in the open-ocean has focused on heterotrophic prokaryotes and eukaryotic phytoplankton, but the role of pelagic fungi remains largely enigmatic.

Molecular analysis of the early interaction between the grapevine flower and Botrytis cinerea reveals that prompt activation of specific host pathways leads to fungus quiescence [PDF]

, 2017
Grape quality and yield can be impaired by bunch rot, caused by the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea. Infection often occurs at flowering, and the pathogen stays quiescent until fruit maturity.

Insight into plant cell wall degradation and pathogenesis of Ganoderma boninense via comparative genome analysis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Background G. boninense is a hemibiotrophic fungus that infects oil palms (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) causing basal stem rot (BSR) disease and consequent massive economic losses to the oil palm industry.
