The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Athe_2052 is an ABC transporter substrate‐binding protein that recognizes xyloglucan heptasaccharide (XXXG), a soluble breakdown product of plant xyloglucan. The crystal structure of Athe_2052, together with binding assays and computational modeling, shows how XXXG is recognized by this sugar transporter.

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 11, Page 4013-4029, November 2026.The small cyclic peptide CP32 effectively inhibits Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of potato and tomato late blight. Combined biochemical and phenotypic analyses demonstrate that CP32 disrupts cell wall biosynthesis, a key process in pathogen infection, resulting in a marked reduction of disease symptoms in plants.

Crystal structure of endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase from Streptomyces avermitilis
Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 8, Page 962-971, August 2026.The crystal structure of S. avermitilis endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase belonging to GH30 subfamily 5 reveals the first structural framework for endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanase. The β‐1,6‐galactobiose‐bound complex identifies the catalytic subsites and a distal secondary sugar‐binding site, providing insight into β‐1,6‐galactan recognition.Endo‐β‐1,6‐galactanases ...

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 3388-3421, July 2026.This study demonstrates a two‐stage catalytic bioreactor system that converts real food waste into high‐purity biohydrogen and biohythane. In Stage‐1, an enriched Clostridium thermocellum culture combined with Ni2+─Fe2+ bimetallic catalysis enhances hydrolysis efficiency and hydrogenase activity, resulting in a 77% increase in H2 yield and 75.8% purity

Application of Long Sequence Reads To Improve Genomes for Clostridium thermocellum AD2, Clostridium thermocellum LQRI, and Pelosinus fermentans R7 [PDF]
Genome Announcements, 2016 ABSTRACT We and others have shown the utility of long sequence reads to improve genome assembly quality. In this study, we generated PacBio DNA sequence data to improve the assemblies of draft genomes for Clostridium thermocellum AD2, Clostridium thermocellum LQRI, and ...
