Biosynthesis of Microbial Exopolysaccharides

1982
Publisher Summary This chapter surveys current knowledge of the production and synthesis of microbial exopolysaccharides. Although the emphasis is on bacterial polymers, relevant information is included on similar products from yeasts, fungi, and other eukaryotes.

The exopolysaccharide properties and structures database: EPS-DB. Application to bacterial exopolysaccharides

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2019
The EPS Database (EPS-DB) is a web-based, platform-independent database of bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) providing access to detailed structural, taxonomic, growth conditions, functional properties, genetic, and bibliographic information for EPSs. It is freely available on the Internet as a website at http://www.epsdatabase.com.

Exopolysaccharides of Agrobacterium tumefaciens

2018
Agrobacterium exopolysaccharides play a major role in the life of the cell. Exopolysaccharides are required for bacterial growth as a biofilm and they protect the bacteria against environmental stresses. Five of the exopolysaccharides made by A. tumefaciens have been characterized extensively with respect to their structure, synthesis, regulation, and ...

EXOPOLYSACCHARIDES IN PATHOGENICITY OF ERWINIA AMYLOVORA

Acta Horticulturae, 1993
The genetics of the two major exopolysaccharides of Erwinia amylovora, levan and amylovoran, were determined. Transposon mutants lacking levan synthesis were fully virulent on immature pears and showed retarded fireblight symptoms on shoots of pear seedlings.

New perspectives for Lactobacilli exopolysaccharides

Biotechnology Advances, 2011
Lactobacilli have the ability to produce different kinds of exopolysaccharides (EPS) exhibiting a wide diversity of structures. EPS are classified, according to their composition into homopolysaccharides and heteropolysaccharides. One of their most described applications is their utilization as texturing agents naturally synthesized in the fermented ...

Exopolysaccharides of Paenibacillus polymyxa: A review

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
Paenibacillus polymyxa (P. polymyxa) is a member of the genus Paenibacillus, which is a rod-shaped, spore-forming gram-positive bacterium. P. polymyxa is a source of many metabolically active substances, including polypeptides, volatile organic compounds, phytohormone, hydrolytic enzymes, exopolysaccharide (EPS), etc. Due to the wide range of compounds

Bacterial capsular polysaccharides and exopolysaccharides

2010
Bacteria often produce an external layer of polysaccharides, characterized by a definite primary structure, which in turn is responsible for sometimes remarkable physicochemical properties. Although the number of monosaccharides which constitute the polymers is rather low, the great number of different polysaccharides defined up to now shows the ...
