Selection of lactic acid bacteria strain for simultaneous production of α- and β-galactosidases
Galactosidases are group of enzymes gaining increasing attention in recent times due to the fact they catalyse hydrolysis of galatose-containing oligosaccharide, which reduce digestibility of various food and feed products.

The mucin-degradation strategy of Ruminococcus gnavus:The importance of intramolecular trans-sialidases [PDF]
We previously identified and characterized an intramolecular trans-sialidase (IT-sialidase) in the gut symbiont Ruminococcus gnavus ATCC 29149, which is associated to the ability of the strain to grow on mucins. In this work we have obtained and analyzed

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

Galactooligosaccharides formation during enzymatic hydrolysis of lactose: towards a prebiotic enriched milk [PDF]
The formation of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) in skim milk during the treatment with several commercial β-galactosidases (Bacillus circulans, Kluyveromyces lactis and Aspergillus oryzae) was analyzed in detail, at 4°C and 40°C.

In the present study, we created the weight gain models with Min and Yorkshire pigs and conducted the metagenomics and metabolomics of colon contents and transcriptomics of colon tissue. Further, we revealed the characteristics and functions of the colonic microbiota in Min and Yorkshire pigs and analyzed their interactions with the host. Overall, this

A novel Arthrobacter beta-galactosidase with homology to eucaryotic beta-galactosidases
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.
