Activity of fungal β-glucosidases on cellulose

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background Fungal beta-glucosidases (BGs) from glucoside hydrolase family 3 (GH3) are industrially important enzymes, which convert cellooligosaccharides into glucose; the end product of the cellulolytic process.

Irreversible inhibitors and activity-based probes as research tools in chemical glycobiology [PDF]

, 2011
In this review, we will discuss the enzymes that are involved in the synthesis and degradation of glycoconjugates and we will give an overview of the inhibitors and activity-based probes (ABPs) that have been used to study these.

The effect of pretreatment on VFA production from tofu and tempeh wastewater through anaerobic digestion batch

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Tofu and tempeh, derived from soybeans, are widely consumed for their nutritional value and high protein content. However, the production of these foods generates nutrient‐rich wastewater that poses environmental challenges while offering opportunities for valorization.

Trends in the utilization, expenditure and costs of noninsulin glucose‐lowering drugs in the Medicaid population: Steady increases in glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist and sodium–glucose transporter‐2 inhibitor use, prices and expenditure

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This study aimed to analyse changes in the utilization, expenditure and average cost of noninsulin glucose‐lowering drugs (GLDs) between 2008 and 2023. Methods This was a retrospective observational study of 2008–2023 data from the National Medicaid State Drug Utilization database.

Synthesis and Glycosidase Inhibition Studies of Novel Exoglycals Targeting GH3 Family Enzymes: Insights from Comparative Analysis with Macrolide Antibiotics

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A series of structurally diverse exoglycals was synthesized using a modified Julia‐olefination approach from sugar‐derived precursors. These glycosidase transition‐state mimics were further diversified via CuAAC chemistry to yield triazole‐conjugated analogues.

Deciphering domain structures of Aspergillus and Streptomyces GH3-β-Glucosidases: a screening system for enzyme engineering and biotechnological applications

BMC Research Notes
The glycoside hydrolase family 3 (GH3) β-glucosidases from filamentous fungi are crucial industrial enzymes facilitating the complete degradation of lignocellulose, by converting cello-oligosaccharides and cellobiose into glucose.

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To
