Cellulase and Chitinase of Earthworms

open access: yesNature, 1951
LITTLE is known of the digestive enzymes of the earthworm. The presence of protease, amylase and lipase has been reported in the gut contents in isolated instances. Since up to 10 per cent of the top four inches of soil in grassland may pass through the intestines of worms in a year1, their digestive abilities are of a relevance to transformation of ...

Sequential fractionation and polyoxometalate‐catalyzed oxidation of lignocellulosic biomass improves cellulose purity and formic acid yield

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Lignocellulosic biomass is an important source of renewable chemicals and materials but its full valorization is necessary in order to achieve economic and sustainability goals. This study proposes a two‐step approach for the valorization of lignocellulosic biomass combining solvent‐assisted fractionation and catalytic oxidation with molecular

Function of four tryptophan residues on Cel7A catalytic efficiency: Insight into cellulase screening strategy based on natural cellulose or cellulose analogs

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 2, Page 143-153, February 2023., 2023
Mutating four tryptophan residues in the catalytic domain of Cel7A from PpCel7A resulted in reduced binding affinity, which showed four tryptophan residues in Cel7A played a critical role in substrate binding. Interestingly, no clear relationship was found between the cellobiohydrolase activity of PpCel7A variants against p‐nitrophenol‐d‐cellobioside ...

Interdependent recruitment of CYC8/TUP1 and the transcriptional activator XYR1 at target promoters is required for induced cellulase gene expression in Trichoderma reesei.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2021
Cellulase production in filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei is highly responsive to various environmental cues involving multiple positive and negative regulators.

Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Is Involved in the Decarboxylation of Aspartate in the Bundle Sheath of Maize [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We recently showed that maize (Zea mays L.) leaves contain appreciable amounts of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK; R.P. Walker, R.M. Acheson, L.I. Técsi, R.C. Leegood [1997] Aust J Plant Physiol 24: 459–468).

Adsorption and mechanism of cellulase enzymes onto lignin isolated from corn stover pretreated with liquid hot water

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2016
BackgroundIn the bioconversion of lignocellulosic substrates, the adsorption behavior of cellulase onto lignin has a negative effect on enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose, decreasing glucose production during enzymatic hydrolysis, thus decreasing the ...

Abscission: Role of Cellulase [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1969
Cellulase (beta-1,4-glucan-glucanohydrolase EC 3.2.1.4) activity increased during abscission and was localized in the cell separation layer of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Red Kidney (bean), Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. Acala 4-42 (Cotton) and Coleus blumei Benth. Princeton strain (Coleus) abscission zone explants. Cellulase activity was optimum at pH 7, was

Isolation of Anammoxosomes From the Aggregate Culture of Ca. Brocadia Sapporoensis and Assembly of Ladderane Liposomes

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Ladderane lipids in anammox bacteria can find use in artificial liposomes for drug delivery. This study developed the isolation of ladderane‐rich anammoxosome organelles from previously challenging aggregate mixed culture of Ca. Brocadia sapporoensis.

Enhancement of Vibrio parahaemolyticus resistance and immune responses in Exopalaemon carinicauda by synergistic bacteriostasis of Crataegus pinnatifida Bunge and oxytetracycline

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 53, Issue 6, Page 1183-1196, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Natural plant extracts (NPEs) may offer an effective alternative to minimize the consequences caused by antibiotic resistance in the marine industry. In this study, the anti‐Vibrio parahaemolyticus activities of several antibiotics and NPEs alone and in combinations were evaluated.

Structure- and context-based analysis of the GxGYxYP family reveals a new putative class of glycoside hydrolase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundGut microbiome metagenomics has revealed many protein families and domains found largely or exclusively in that environment. Proteins containing the GxGYxYP domain are over-represented in the gut microbiota, and are found in Polysaccharide ...
