Efficient Biotransformation of Icariin to Baohuoside I Using Two Novel GH1 β-Glucosidases
Epimedium Folium (EF) is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, and its primary bioactive ingredients, such as icariin, are flavonoid glycosides. A rare EF flavonoid, baohuoside I, exhibits superior bioactivities and enhanced bioavailability compared to ...

Structural Analysis of Free N-Glycans in α-Glucosidase Mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Lack of the Evidence for the Occurrence of Catabolic α-Glucosidase Acting on the N-Glycans. [PDF]
Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces two different α-glucosidases, Glucosidase 1 (Gls1) and Glucosidase 2 (Gls2), which are responsible for the removal of the glucose molecules from N-glycans (Glc3Man9GlcNAc2) of glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum ...

Dissecting Cellular Function and Distribution of β-Glucosidases in Trichoderma reesei
Although β-glucosidases play an important role in fungal cellulase induction and production, our current understanding does not provide a global perspective on β-glucosidase function.

The multiple strategies of an insect herbivore to overcome plant cyanogenic glucoside defence. [PDF]
Cyanogenic glucosides (CNglcs) are widespread plant defence compounds that release toxic hydrogen cyanide by plant β-glucosidase activity after tissue damage.

Structual and biochemical characterisation of the endoplasmic reticulum alpha-glucosidases [PDF]
ER alpha-glucosidases I and II are glycosyl hydrolases that play a key role in eukaryotic glycoprotein folding quality control. Removal of two glucose residues from the N-glycan attached to a protein allows association with calnexin or calreticulin which
