Extremophilic Microorganisms as a Source of Emerging Enzymes for the Food Industry: A Review. [PDF]
Enzymes such as amylases, lipases, proteases, xylanases, laccases, pullulanase, chitinases, pectinases, esterases, isomerases, and dehydrogenases could be derived from extremophilic organisms like thermophiles, psychrophiles, acidophiles, alkaliphiles, and halophiles. These enzymes or extremozymes are applicable in the production of safe foods (such as

To investigate the effect of cyclodextrin glucosyltransferase (CGTase) produced by the recombinant strain pET-28a(+)-cgt-T1/BL21 (DE3) on the synthesis of 2-O-α-D-glucoside (AA-2G), the recombinant protein CGTase-T1 was expressed in the fermentation ...

Molecular Modeling of a Predominant β-CGTase G1 and Analysis of Ionic Interaction in CGTase [PDF]
The protein 3D structure for CGTase G1 was determined by homology modeling and a good structure was generated after three rounds of energy minimization process. The ERRAT and Verify3D scores for the predicted structure were determined as 98.07 and 90.991%, respectively.

The Cyclization Mechanism of Cyclodextrin Glycosyltransferase (CGTase) as Revealed by a γ-Cyclodextrin-CGTase Complex at 1.8-Å Resolution [PDF]
The enzyme cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase is closely related to alpha-amylases but has the unique ability to produce cyclodextrins (circular alpha(1-->4)-linked glucoses) from starch. To characterize this specificity we determined a 1.8-A structure of an E257Q/D229N mutant cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase in complex with its product gamma ...

Nutritional Composition, Functionality, and Processing Technologies for Amaranth
The current production levels of the major staple food crops are not sufficient to fulfill the projected global food requirements, with more than 75% of total grain production being maize (corn), wheat, and rice together. Accordingly, there is an acute need to explore alternative crops such as amaranth with the potential to play a crucial role in ...

Safety evaluation of glucosylated steviol glycosides as a food additive in different food categories
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Food Additive and Flavourings (FAF) assessed the safety of glucosylated steviol glycosides proposed for use as a new food additive in different food categories. Glucosylated steviol glycosides consist of a mixture of glucosylated steviol glycosides, containing 1–20 additional glucose units bound to the parent steviol ...

Enzymkatalysierte späte Modifizierungen: Besser spät als nie
Späte Modifizierungen sind unerlässlich für die Diversifizierung von Verbindungen in der Synthese. Da Enzyme effiziente Werkzeuge für milde, Katalysator‐kontrollierte Funktionalisierungen bieten, sind neue biokatalytische Methoden für eine große Fülle orthogonaler Reaktionen entstanden.

Enzymatic Late‐Stage Modifications: Better Late Than Never
Late‐stage modification is an indispensable approach for compound diversification in synthesis. Since enzymes offer particularly powerful means for mild, catalyst‐controlled functionalisations, in recent years several novel biocatalytic methods have emerged enabling a broad array of orthogonal reactions.

Recent Progress on Cellulose‐Based Ionic Compounds for Biomaterials
Ionic cellulose‐based compounds as either polymeric cellulose derivatives or ionic nanocellulose have gained tremendous attention within the last years due to their remarkable properties, especially their biological properties. Recent advances about various ionic cellulose‐based compounds with diverse functional moieties either along the cellulose ...

Alkyl glycoside surfactants having long carbohydrate groups including carboxyl groups were synthesized. The carboxyl groups were introduced by chemoenzymatic oxidation and the elongation of the carbohydrate groups was achieved using cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) as catalyst.
