A Novel Colletotrichum graminicola Raffinose Oxidase in the AA5 Family. [PDF]
ABSTRACT We describe here the identification and characterization of a copper radical oxidase from auxiliary activities family 5 (AA5_2) that was distinguished by showing preferential activity toward raffinose. Despite the biotechnological potential of carbohydrate oxidases from family AA5, very few members have been ...
