Identification of Carbohydrate Metabolism Genes in the Metagenome of a Marine Biofilm Community Shown to Be Dominated by Gammaproteobacteria and Bacteroidetes [PDF]
Polysaccharides are an important source of organic carbon in the marine environment and degradation of the insoluble and globally abundant cellulose is a major component of the marine carbon cycle.

A mutation map for human glycoside hydrolase genes [PDF]
Abstract Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are found in all domains of life, and at least 87 distinct genes encoding proteins related to GHs are found in the human genome. GHs serve diverse functions from digestion of dietary polysaccharides to breakdown of intracellular oligosaccharides, glycoproteins, proteoglycans and glycolipids. Congenital

Computational Studies of Glycoside, Carboxylic Ester, and Thioester Hydrolase Mechanisms: A Review [PDF]
This article is a review of computational work over the last ∼15 years to elucidate the catalytic mechanisms of three major enzyme classes: glycoside hydrolases, carboxylic ester hydrolases, and thioesterases.

Induction and Characterisation of Lignocellulolytic Activities from Novel Deep-Sea Fungal Secretomes
Fungi are increasingly recognised as being able to inhabit extreme environments. The deep sea is considered an extreme environment because of its low temperatures, high hydrostatic and lithostatic pressures, 3.5% salinity, and low oxygen, nutrient and ...

Structural and dynamic evolution of the amphipathic N-terminus diversifies enzyme thermostability in the glycoside hydrolase family 12 [PDF]
Understanding the molecular mechanism underlying protein thermostability is central to the process of efficiently engineering thermostable cellulases, which can provide potential advantages in accelerating the conversion of biomass into clean biofuels.

Biomass-degrading glycoside hydrolases of archaeal origin [PDF]
AbstractDuring the last decades, the impact of hyperthermophiles and their enzymes has been intensively investigated for implementation in various high-temperature biotechnological processes. Biocatalysts of hyperthermophiles have proven to show extremely high thermo-activities and thermo-stabilities and are identified as suitable candidates for ...

Degradation of switchgrass by Bacillus subtilis 1AJ3 and expression of a beta-glycoside hydrolase
Increasing demand for carbon neutrality has led to the development of new techniques and modes of low carbon production. The utilization of microbiology to convert low-cost renewable resources into more valuable chemicals is particularly important. Here,

Zwitterionic pyrrolidene-phosphonates: inhibitors of the glycoside hydrolase-like phosphorylase Streptomyces coelicolor GlgEI-V279S [PDF]
We synthesized and evaluated new zwitterionic inhibitors against glycoside hydrolase-like phosphorylaseStreptomyces coelicolor(Sco) GlgEI-V279S which plays a role in α-glucan biosynthesis.
