Revisiting the Regulation of the Primary Scaffoldin Gene in Clostridium thermocellum [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cellulosomes are considered to be one of the most efficient systems for the degradation of plant cell wall polysaccharides. The central cellulosome component comprises a large, noncatalytic protein subunit called scaffoldin.

Logic‐Gated HSV‐TK/GCV Suicide Gene Circuit for Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer
The BRAS comprises two modular genetic components driven by distinct tumor‐specific promoters and a failsafe layer with the NOT gate. This multi‐input logic gate circuit enables precise, specific expression of HSV‐TK in breast cancer cells with hardly expression in normal cell and effectively inhibits tumor growth in a triple‐negative breast cancer ...

Structural and biochemical properties of lichenase from Clostridium thermocellum [PDF]
The recombinant enzyme lichenase of size 30 kDa was over-expressed using E. coli cells and purified by immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) and size exclusion chromatography. The enzyme displayed high activity towards lichenan and β-glucan.

A hierarchical assembly system was established in which the coding sequences for four docking enzymes and a scaffold are co‐assembled onto a single plasmid, thereby establishing a ‘scaffoldomics’ platform for the optimisation of multi‐enzyme biosynthetic pathways.

The Cellulosome Paradigm in An Extreme Alkaline Environment
Rapid decomposition of plant biomass in soda lakes is associated with microbial activity of anaerobic cellulose-degrading communities. The alkaliphilic bacterium, Clostridium alkalicellulosi, is the single known isolate from a soda lake that demonstrates

Carbohydrate Transport by the Anaerobic Thermophile Clostridium thermocellum LQRI [PDF]
Clostridium thermocellum is an anaerobic thermophilic bacterium which degrades cellulose and ferments the resulting glucose, cellobiose, and cellodextrins predominantly to ethanol. However, relatively little information was available on carbohydrate uptake by this bacterium. Washed cells internalized intact oligomers as large as cellopentaose.

Hydrogen fuel production from sugarcane and its byproducts – a critical review
Abstract The transition to a low‐carbon economy has intensified the search for sustainable hydrogen (H2) production routes. Sugarcane and its byproducts, such as bagasse, molasses and vinasse, have emerged as promising feedstocks due to their ready availability and renewable nature. However, comprehensive evaluations of the efficiency, limitations, and

Cereal Arabinoxylans—Their Enzymatic Degradation and Relevance for Breadmaking and Human Health
ABSTRACT As the most abundant nonstarch polysaccharides in cereals, arabinoxylans (AXs) contribute significantly to the global intake of dietary fiber. They play a crucial role in the breadmaking process with respect to dough rheology and texture, bread volume, and nutritional quality, especially when starting from wheat or rye flour.

Regulation of Cellulase Formation in Clostridium thermocellum
Summary: True cellulase activity (i.e. degradation of crystalline cellulose) was markedly derepressed when cellobiose-grown cells were transferred to fructose or sorbitol, especially while the cells were adapting over many hours to these carbon sources. On the other hand, the long lag phase on glucose was not accompanied by derepression.
