EXOPOLYSACCHARIDES IN PLANT-BACTERIAL INTERACTIONS

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1992
Rhizobial plant symbionts and bacterial plant pathogens produce exopolysaccharides that often play essential roles in the plant interaction. Many of these exopolysaccharides are acidic heteropolysaccharides that have repeating subunit structures with carbohydrate and noncarbohydrate substituents, while others are homopolysaccharides such as alginate ...

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.

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.

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 ...

Adhesive Bacterial Exopolysaccharides

2016
Exopolysaccharides promote adhesion of bacteria to biotic and abiotic surfaces and are a key component of the extracellular matrix of many biofilms. Exopolysaccharides are chemically and structurally diverse and confer considerable advances to the bacteria that produce them. The increased tolerance to antibiotics and resistance to environmental changes

Exopolysaccharides from Lactic Acid Bacteria

2007
Carbohydrates are an important part of life and are present in bacteria, fungi, viruses, yeast, plants, animals and humans. The rapid expansion of chemistry and glycobiology over the last few years has provided many new, imaginative and efficient techniques which provide further insight into the structures and biological interactions of carbohydrates ...

Microbial Biopolymers: The Exopolysaccharides

2015
Microorganisms produce several biopolymers. Of these, intracellularly produced polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and extracellularly produced exopolysaccharides (EPS) are gaining importance over the other biopolymers. These naturally produced polymers can replace plant-based or petroleum-derived polymers.

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 ...
