Annotation and comparative analysis of the glycoside hydrolase genes in
BMC Genomics, 2010 Background Glycoside hydrolases cleave the bond between a carbohydrate and another carbohydrate, a protein, lipid or other moiety. Genes encoding glycoside hydrolases are found in a wide range of organisms, from archea to animals, and are relatively ...

Proteomic analysis of a novel Bacillus Jumbo phage revealing glycoside hydrolase as structural component [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Tailed phages with genomes of larger than 200 kbp are classified as Jumbo phages and exhibited extremely high uncharted diversity. The genomic annotation of Jumbo phage is often disappointing because most of the predicted proteins, including structural ...

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.

Increase of intestinal bacterial sialidase activity exacerbates acute colitis in mice
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022 The availability of endogenous and dietary carbohydrates in the gastrointestinal tract influences the composition of the gut microbiota. Carbohydrate foraging requires the action of bacterially-encoded glycoside hydrolases, which release mono- and ...

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts, 2023 Background The combination of cellulase and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) is known to boost enzymatic saccharification of cellulose. Although the synergy between cellulases (GH5, 6 or 7) and LPMOs (AA9) has been extensively studied, the ...
