Biochemical characterization of three Aspergillus niger β-galactosidases
Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2017 Background: β-Galactosidases catalyze both hydrolytic and transgalactosylation reactions and therefore have many applications in food, medical, and biotechnological fields.

Recombinant production and characterization of six novel GH27 and GH36 α-galactosidases from Penicillium subrubescens and their synergism with a commercial mannanase during the hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass [PDF]
Bioresource Technology, 2020 α-Galactosidases are important industrial enzymes for hemicellulosic biomass degradation or modification. In this study, six novel extracellular α-galactosidases from Penicillium subrubescens were produced in Pichia pastoris and characterized.

Characterization of GH2 and GH42 β-galactosidases derived from bifidobacterial infant isolates [PDF]
AMB Express, 2019 Bifidobacteria are among the first and most abundant bacterial colonizers of the gastrointestinal tract of (breast-fed) healthy infants. Their success of colonising the infant gut is believed to be, at least partly, due to their ability to metabolize ...
