Fungal Glycoside Hydrolases Display Unique Specificities for Polysaccharides and Staphylococcus aureus Biofilms [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Commercially available cellulases and amylases can disperse the pathogenic bacteria embedded in biofilms. This suggests that polysaccharide-degrading enzymes would be useful as antibacterial therapies to aid the treatment of biofilm-associated bacteria ...

Forgotten Actors: Glycoside Hydrolases During Elongation Growth of Maize Primary Root [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Plant cell enlargement is coupled to dynamic changes in cell wall composition and properties. Such rearrangements are provided, besides the differential synthesis of individual cell wall components, by enzymes that modify polysaccharides in muro.

Genomic and Transcriptomic Evidence for Carbohydrate Consumption Among Microorganisms in a Cold Seep Brine Pool [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The detailed lifestyle of microorganisms in deep-sea brine environments remains largely unexplored. Using a carefully calibrated genome binning approach, we reconstructed partial to nearly-complete genomes of 51 microorganisms in biofilms from the Thuwal

Biomass-degrading glycoside hydrolases of archaeal origin [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
During the last decades, the impact of hyperthermophiles and their enzymes has been intensively investigated for implementation in various high-temperature biotechnological processes.

Differential Efficacy of Glycoside Hydrolases to Disperse Biofilms [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Chronic wounds will impact 2% of the United States population at some point in their life. These wounds are often associated with a reoccurring, chronic infection caused by a community of microorganisms encased in an extracellular polymeric substance ...

Structure- and context-based analysis of the GxGYxYP family reveals a new putative class of Glycoside Hydrolase [PDF]

open access: gold, 2014
BackgroundGut microbiome metagenomics has revealed many protein families and domains found largely or exclusively in that environment. Proteins containing the GxGYxYP domain are over-represented in the gut microbiota, and are found in Polysaccharide ...

Efficacy and safety of biofilm dispersal by glycoside hydrolases in wounds [PDF]

open access: yesBiofilm, 2021
Novel anti-biofilm and dispersal agents are currently being investigated in an attempt to combat biofilm-associated wound infections. Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are enzymes that hydrolyze the glycosidic bonds between sugars, such as those found within ...

Genes for degradation and utilization of uronic acid-containing polysaccharides of a marine bacterium Catenovulum sp. CCB-QB4 [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Background Oligosaccharides from polysaccharides containing uronic acids are known to have many useful bioactivities. Thus, polysaccharide lyases (PLs) and glycoside hydrolases (GHs) involved in producing the oligosaccharides have attracted interest in ...
