Targeted discovery of glycoside hydrolases from a switchgrass-adapted compost community. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Development of cellulosic biofuels from non-food crops is currently an area of intense research interest. Tailoring depolymerizing enzymes to particular feedstocks and pretreatment conditions is one promising avenue of research in this area.

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

Supplementing with non-glycoside hydrolase proteins enhances enzymatic deconstruction of plant biomass. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The glycoside hydrolases (GH) of Caldicellulosiruptor bescii are thermophilic enzymes, and therefore they can hydrolyze plant cell wall polysaccharides at high temperatures. Analyses of two C.

Thermostable Glycoside Hydrolases in Biorefinery Technologies [PDF]
Current Biotechnology, 2014 Glycoside hydrolases, which are responsible for the degradation of the major fraction of biomass, the polymeric carbohydrates in starch and lignocellulose, are predicted to gain increasing roles as catalysts in biorefining applications in the future bioeconomy.

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.

Engineering the stability and the activity of a glycoside hydrolase [PDF]
Protein Engineering Design and Selection, 2010 Glycosidases, the enzymes responsible in nature for the catabolism of carbohydrates, are well-studied catalysts widely used in industrial biotransformations and oligosaccharide synthesis, which are also attractive targets for drug development. Glycosidases from hyperthermophilic organisms (thriving at temperatures > 85 °C) are also interesting models ...

Several genes encoding enzymes with the same activity are necessary for aerobic fungal degradation of cellulose in nature. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The cellulose-degrading fungal enzymes are glycoside hydrolases of the GH families and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases. The entanglement of glycoside hydrolase families and functions makes it difficult to predict the enzymatic activity of glycoside ...
