Microbial fructosyltransferases and the role of fructans [PDF]
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2009 Microbial fructosyltransferases are polymerases that are involved in microbial fructan (levan, inulin and fructo-oligosaccharide) biosynthesis. Structurally, microbial fructosyltransferase proteins share the catalytic domain of glycoside hydrolases 68 family and are grouped in seven phylogenetically related clusters. Fructosyltransferase-encoding genes

Transforming a Fructan:Fructan 6G-Fructosyltransferase from Perennial Ryegrass into a Sucrose:Sucrose 1-Fructosyltransferase [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2008 AbstractFructosyltransferases (FTs) synthesize fructans, fructose polymers accumulating in economically important cool-season grasses and cereals. FTs might be crucial for plant survival under stress conditions in species in which fructans represent the major form of reserve carbohydrate, such as perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne). Two FT types can be

Identification and structural basis of an enzyme that degrades oligosaccharides in caramel
Biophysics and Physicobiology, 2023 Cooking with fire produces foods containing carbohydrates that are not naturally occurring, such as α-d-fructofuranoside found in caramel. Each of the hundreds of compounds produced by caramelization reactions is considered to possess its own ...

Genetic regulation of fructosyltransferase in Streptococcus mutans [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1994 Streptococcus mutans possesses several extracellular sucrose-metabolizing enzymes which have been implicated as important virulence factors in dental caries. This study was initiated to investigate the genetic regulation of one of these enzymes, the extracellular fructosyltransferase (Ftf).

The large subunit determines catalytic specificity of barley sucrose:fructan 6‐fructosyltransferase and fescue sucrose:sucrose 1‐fructosyltransferase [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2004 Plant fructosyltransferases are highly homologous in primary sequence and typically consist of two subunits but catalyze widely different reactions. Using functional expression in the yeast Pichia pastoris, we show that the substrate specificity of festuca sucrose:sucrose 1‐β‐d‐fructosyltransferase (1‐SST) and barley sucrose:fructan 6‐β‐d ...
