Molecular mechanics studies of factors affecting overall rate in cascade reactions: Multi‐enzyme colocalization and environment

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Millions of years of evolution have optimized many biosynthetic pathways by use of multi‐step catalysis. In addition, multi‐step metabolic pathways are commonly found in and on membrane‐bound organelles in eukaryotic biochemistry. The fundamental mechanisms that facilitate these reaction processes provide strategies to bioengineer metabolic ...

Dietary fibre optimisation in support of global health

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2024.
Dietary fibre is an essential component of healthy diets. It exerts its actions on the human host largely via the intestinal microbiota. The interplay of fibre, microbiota and health are discussed in the context of different lifestyle settings across the globe. Finally, fibre‐based intervention strategies to improve health are considered.

Structural and molecular insights into a bifunctional glycoside hydrolase 30 xylanase specific to glucuronoxylan

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 121, Issue 7, Page 2067-2078, July 2024.
Abstract Glycoside hydrolase (GH) 30 family xylanases are enzymes of biotechnological interest due to their capacity to degrade recalcitrant hemicelluloses, such as glucuronoxylan (GX). This study focuses on a subfamily 7 GH30, TtXyn30A from Thermothelomyces thermophilus, which acts on GX in an “endo” and “exo” mode, releasing methyl‐glucuronic acid ...

Do Rumen Bacteroidetes Utilize an Alternative Mechanism for Cellulose Degradation?

open access: yesmBio, 2014
Uncultured and therefore uncharacterized Bacteroidetes lineages are ubiquitous in many natural ecosystems which specialize in lignocellulose degradation.

Effect of the combined intervention of low‐FODMAPs diet and probiotics on IBS symptoms in Western China: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 3993-4004, June 2024.
Low‐FODMAPs diet and low‐FODMAPs diet combined with probiotics could significantly relieve the symptoms of IBS patients. The addition of probiotics increased the abundance of several gut microbiota, including Ruminococcus, Coprococcus, Acidaminococcus et al. Pearson correlation analysis confirmed that alterations of the microbiota induced by probiotics

Community and functionality of fungi in the gastrointestinal tracts of herbivores revealed by omics

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2018
Fungi are the major microbes to exploit fiber degrading enzymes. Anaerobic fungi possess hydrogenosomes and cellulosomes to improve their energy supply in anaerobic environment, and their thick cell wall or spore-like structure help them adapt adverse ...

Ecological, beneficial, and pathogenic functions of the Type 9 Secretion System

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 6, June 2024.
This mini review delves into the broad spectrum of proteins secreted by the bacterial type 9 secretion system (T9SS). It focuses on the roles of T9SS‐secreted proteins in pathogenesis, bacterial interactions, host colonization, and the maintenance of ecosystem health.

The prospects of cellulase-producing bacteria for the bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Sciences, 2009
Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable and abundant resource with great potential for bioconversion to value-added bioproducts. However, the biorefining process remains economically unfeasible due to a lack of biocatalysts that can overcome costly ...
