Purification and properties of glucosyltransferase fromAureobasidium

Journal of Industrial Microbiology, 1994
Purification and properties of glucosyltransferase, which produces panose (Glc alpha 1-->6Glc alpha 1-->4Glc) and isomaltose (Glc alpha 1-->6Glc) from maltose (Glc alpha 1-->4Glc), are reported. The enzyme, from Aureobasidium, was purified to homogeneity by fractionations involving ammonium sulfate and DEAE-Cellulofine, S-Sepharose Fast Flow and ...

Study of ceramide glucosyltransferase

, 2001
Ceramide glucosyltransferase (CGT) is a key enzyme in glycosphingolipid (GSL) biosynthesis in eukaryotic cells. Inhibition of enzyme activity by an N-alkylated imino sugar, N-butyl-deoxynojirimycin (NB-DNJ), has been evaluated for the therapeutic treatment of inherited glycosphingolipid lysosomal storage diseases.

The determination of glucosyltransferase

Biotechnology Letters, 1979
A new procedure for the determination of glucosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.24) activity in amyloglucosidase preparations has been developed. The procedure is based on the rapid separation of glucosyltransferase from amyloglucosidase on carboxymethyl bio-gel A.

Cytotoxic Glucosyltransferases of Legionella pneumophila

2013
Legionella is a gram-negative bacterium and the causative pathogen of legionellosis-a severe pneumonia in humans. A large number of Legionella effectors interfere with numerous host cell functions, including intracellular vacuole trafficking and maturation, phospholipid metabolism, protein ubiquitination, pro-/anti-apoptotic balances or inflammatory ...

Regulation of Streptococcus gordonii Glucosyltransferase

1997
The early dental plaque organism Streptococcus gordonii has a single glucosyltransferase (GTF) enzyme that makes both α1,3- and α1,6-linked glucans from sucrose(5). The glucans made by the parental strain Challis CH1 confer a hard, cohesive, sucrose-promoted phenotype (Spp+) to colonies grown on sucrose agar(3). Spp− variants, which are soft on sucrose

The glucosyltransferases of Streptococcus salivarius

Australian Dental Journal, 1994
AbstractThis review covers some of the more recent developments in the understanding of the different glucosyltransferases (GTFs) secreted by oral streptococci, particularly those produced by Streptococcus salivarius — a species that has been intensively studied at the Institute of Dental Research in Sydney.

Glucosyltransferase isozymes in algae

Phytochemistry, 1967
Abstract Purified phosphorylase preparations from representative members of three algal Groups were subjected to two-dimensional electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel. Three groups of closely associated isozymes were found in each preparation. Two isozymes of the conventional phosphorylase type were present in preparations from blue-green and from ...

Novel glucosyltransferases

The present invention describes a protein having glucosyltransferase activity. This protein is derived from lactobacilli, which are food-grade microorganisms with the Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status. The protein produces a glucan with a unique structure having 4-linked, 6-linked and 4,6-linked anhydroglucose units or in the presence of ...
