Curation of characterized glycoside hydrolases of Fungal origin [PDF]
Database, 2011 Fungi produce a wide range of extracellular enzymes to break down plant cell walls, which are composed mainly of cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose. Among them are the glycoside hydrolases (GH), the largest and most diverse family of enzymes active on these substrates.

Thermostable glycoside hydrolases in Biorefining [PDF]
, 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.

GH97 is a new family of glycoside hydrolases, which is related to the α-galactosidase superfamily
BMC Genomics, 2005 Background As a rule, about 1% of genes in a given genome encode glycoside hydrolases and their homologues. On the basis of sequence similarity they have been grouped into more than ninety GH families during the last 15 years.

Transglycosylation by Glycoside Hydrolases - Production and modification of alkyl glycosides [PDF]
, 2015 To enable the transition to a green, bio-based economy, an extensive enzymatic toolbox competitive to traditional chemical procedures is needed. One strong area for enzymes is carbohydrate chemistry, due to the over-functionalized nature of carbohydrates, difficult to handle in traditional chemistry.

Forgotten Actors: Glycoside Hydrolases During Elongation Growth of Maize Primary Root
Frontiers 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.

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 ...
