Rational transformation of Lactobacillus reuteri 121 reuteransucrase into a dextransucrase [PDF]
, 2005 Glucansucrase or glucosyltransferase (GTF) enzymes of lactic acid bacteria display high sequence similarity but catalyze synthesis of different α-glucans (e.g., dextran, mutan, alternan, and reuteran) from sucrose.

Is there still room to explore cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase-producers in Brazilian biodiversity? [PDF]
, 2018 In the present work, different Brazilian biomes aiming to identify and select cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase-producer bacteria are explored. This enzyme is responsible for converting starch to cyclodextrin, which are interesting molecules to carry ...

Room at the Top as well as at the Bottom: Structure of Functional Food Inclusion Compounds [PDF]
, 2018 Cyclodextrins (CDs) have been hanging around research laboratories, since their discovery by Villiers. When Schardinger identified the three naturally occurring forms—α, alpha; β, beta; and γ, gamma—they were called “Schardinger sugars.” Then it was ...

Cyclodextrin as a Drug Carrier Increasing Drug Solubility [PDF]
, 2017 The development of a new drug requires research and evaluation before the drug is approved to enter the market. One of the factors determining the efficacy of a drug is the aqueous solubility of the drug.

In Vitro Evaluation of the Cytotoxicity of a Folate-modified β-cyclodextrin as a New Anti-cancer Drug Delivery System [PDF]
, 2014 Many chemotherapeutic drugs are therapeutically non-selective and do not distinguish between healthy cells and tumour cells which can result in severe side effects and toxicity. Drug delivery systems can be used to target specific cells and therefore may

Characterization of immobilized alkaline cyclodextringlycosyltransferase from a newly isolated Bacillus agaradhaerens KSU-A11 [PDF]
, 2015 Alkaliphilic bacteria were isolated from soil and water samples obtained from Egyptian soda lakes (Wadi Natrun area, Egypt). Screening for cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase)-producing alkaliphilic bacteria resulted in isolation of 10 positive ...
