Properties of cerebroside galactosidase [PDF]

open access: greenBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1968
SUMMARY Rat brain cerebrosidase was shown by centrifugal fractionation to be a lysosomal enzyme. The pH optimum was found to be 4.5. Taurocholate greatly stimulated its action. The addition of palmitic acid had little effect on the enzyme activity, but ceramide, sphingosine, and ceramide lactoside inhibited.

Senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase is lysosomal β‐galactosidase [PDF]

open access: yesAging Cell, 2006
SummaryReplicative senescence limits the proliferation of somatic cells passaged in culture and may reflect cellular aging in vivo. The most widely used biomarker for senescent and aging cells is senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase (SA‐β‐gal), which is defined as β‐galactosidase activity detectable at pH 6.0 in senescent cells, but the origin of SA‐β‐

β-Galactosidase and Selective Neutrality [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1979
Three hypotheses to explain the amino acid composition of proteins are inconsistent (P ≅ 10 -9 ) with the experimental data for β-galactosidase from Escherichia coli. The exceptional length of this protein, 1021 residues, permits rigorous tests of these hypotheses without complication from statistical artifacts ...

On the evolution of beta-galactosidase. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1978
The amino acid sequence of beta-galactosidase (beta-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.23) has been compared to itself and to other proteins. Two segments, each of about 380 amino acids, comprising the first three-fourths of the polypeptide chain, were found to be very similar to each other. It is concluded that they are homologous.

Whole conversion of agro-industrial wastes rich in galactose-based carbohydrates into lipid using oleaginous yeast Aureobasidium namibiae

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background Raw materials composed of easily assimilated monosaccharides have been employed as carbon source for production of microbial lipids. Nevertheless, agro-industrial wastes rich in galactose-based carbohydrates have not been introduced as ...

Identification, Characterization, and Expression of a β-Galactosidase from Arion Species (Mollusca)

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
β-Galactosidases (β-Gal, EC 3.2.1.23) catalyze the cleavage of terminal non-reducing β-D-galactose residues or transglycosylation reactions yielding galacto-oligosaccharides.

Biochemical characterization of three Aspergillus niger β-galactosidases

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2017
Background: β-Galactosidases catalyze both hydrolytic and transgalactosylation reactions and therefore have many applications in food, medical, and biotechnological fields.

Improving the Secretory Expression of an -Galactosidase from Aspergillus niger in Pichia pastoris. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
α-Galactosidases are broadly used in feed, food, chemical, pulp, and pharmaceutical industries. However, there lacks a satisfactory microbial cell factory that is able to produce α-galactosidases efficiently and cost-effectively to date, which prevents ...

Biochemical characterisation of α- and β-glucosidases and α- and β-galactosidases from red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Col.: Curculionide)

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2012
The red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier), is one of the most destructive pests of palm trees in the southeast of Iran. Digestion in the alimentary canal of the red palm weevil is facilitated by some carbohydrases.
