Bioprospecting of indigenous resources for the exploration of exopolysaccharide producing lactic acid bacteria

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2018
Exploration of biodiversity lead towards the discovery of novel exopolysaccharide (EPS) producing microbes that have multiple applications. The safety compatibility status of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) makes it an attractive candidate for the production ...

Designing of a novel dextransucrase efficient in acceptor reactions

open access: yes, 2021
Dextransucrase is produced by Leuconostoc, Streptococcus and Lactobacillus Species. The enzyme synthesizes dextran and acceptor products some of which act as prebiotics that are increasingly used in such industries as food, medicine, and cosmetics.

Cloning and characterization of a Weissella confusa dextransucrase and its application in high fibre baking. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Wheat bran offers health benefits as a baking ingredient, but is detrimental to bread textural quality. Dextran production by microbial fermentation improves sourdough bread volume and freshness, but extensive acid production during fermentation may ...

Distribution of dextransucrase in Streptococcus mutans and observations on the effect of soluble dextran on dextransucrase activities [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 1977
Total and insoluble dextransucrase activities were measured in cell-associated and supernatant fractions of Streptococcus mutans GS-5 grown in several media. Although the amount of cell-associated and supernatant activity varied greatly as a function of medium, the total activity appeared constant.

Transglycosylation of gallic acid by using Leuconostoc glucansucrase and its characterization as a functional cosmetic agent

open access: yesAMB Express, 2017
Gallic acid glycoside was enzymatically synthesized by using dextransucrase and sucrose from gallic acid. After purification by butanol partitioning and preparative HPLC, gallic acid glucoside was detected at m/z 355 (C13, H16, O10, Na)+ by matrix ...

Effect of acceptor carbohydrates on oligosaccharide and polysaccharide synthesis by dextransucrase DsrM from Weissella cibaria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The digestibility of isomalto-oligosaccharides (IMO) as well as their metabolism by gut microbiota depends on the degree of polymerization and the ratio of α-(1→4) to α-(1→6) linkages.
