Is there still room to explore cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase-producers in Brazilian biodiversity?

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
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 ...

Hidden O‐Deglycosylation Activity Triggers O → C Rearrangement for Aryl Di‐C‐Glucoside Formation by the C‐Glycosyltransferase From Fortunella crassifolia

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Here, we uncovered an unexpected O‐deglycosylation activity of the C glycosyltransferase (FcCGT), forming phloretin (1) from phloretin 2'‐O‐glucoside (2). In the presence of UDP, FcCGT catalyzes the O→C rearrangement to yield nothofagin (3). Upon additional UDP‐glucose, further C‐glycosylation occurs, forming phloretin 3',5'‐di‐C‐glucoside (4 ...

Functional demonstrations of starch binding domains present in Ostreococcus tauri starch synthases isoforms [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Starch‑binding domains are key modules present in several enzymes involved in polysaccharide metabolism. These non‑catalytic modules have already been described as essential for starch‑binding and the cata‑ lytic activity of starch synthase ...

Enhancing Cold Adaptation of Bidomain Amylases by High‐Throughput Computational Engineering

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 29, July 14, 2025.
This work uncovers molecular determinants of cold adaptation in bidomain amylases by combining MD simulations and biochemical assays, revealing that increased domain separation drives enhanced activity at low temperatures. Guided by this principle, high‐throughput in silico linker screening of mesophilic psA was performed, yielding variant psA121 with ...
