L-Rhamnose Dehydrogenase LraA of Aspergillus niger Shows High Substrate Specificity Matching Its Expression Profile

Journal of Fungi
L-rhamnose is one of the main monomeric sugars of rhamnogalacturonan I and II, which are polysaccharide components of pectin. In the ascomycete fungus Aspergillus niger it is metabolized through the non-phosphorylated L-rhamnose pathway, of which the ...
