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

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

Characterization of GH2 and GH42 β-galactosidases derived from bifidobacterial infant isolates
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 ...

Cerebroside galactosidase of brain
Journal of Lipid Research, 1966 The galactoside bond in cerebroside was found to be cleaved by an enzyme in rat and pig brain. Emulsified stearoyl-(14)C psychosine was used as the substrate and the extent of cleavage was studied by isolating and counting the stearoyl sphingosine (ceramide) formed.

Functional metagenomics reveals novel β-galactosidases not predictable from gene sequences. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The techniques of metagenomics have allowed researchers to access the genomic potential of uncultivated microbes, but there remain significant barriers to determination of gene function based on DNA sequence alone.

A novel Arthrobacter beta-galactosidase with homology to eucaryotic beta-galactosidases
Journal of Bacteriology, 1997 An Arthrobacter beta-galactosidase has homology with the lysosomal acid beta-galactosidases from humans and mice and with a Xanthomonas manihotis enzyme. Phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence showed an unusual pattern, with this procaryotic enzyme clustering within the animal clade.

Present status on removal of raffinose family oligosaccharides - a Review
Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2019 Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) are α-galactosyl derivatives of sucrose or glucose. They are found in a large variety of seeds from many different families such as beans, vegetables and whole grains.
