Development and validation of a microarray for the investigation of the CAZymes encoded by the human gut microbiome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Distal gut bacteria play a pivotal role in the digestion of dietary polysaccharides by producing a large number of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) that the host otherwise does not produce.

Identification of d-arabinan-degrading enzymes in mycobacteria

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Bacterial cell growth and division require the coordinated action of enzymes that synthesize and degrade cell wall polymers. Here, we identify enzymes that cleave the d-arabinan core of arabinogalactan, an unusual component of the cell wall of ...

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

A glucotolerant β-glucosidase from the fungus Talaromyces amestolkiae and its conversion into a glycosynthase for glycosylation of phenolic compounds

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2020
Background The interest for finding novel β-glucosidases that can improve the yields to produce second-generation (2G) biofuels is still very high. One of the most desired features for these enzymes is glucose tolerance, which enables their optimal ...

Oligosaccharides With Defined Glycosidic Bonds Shape Gut Microbial Succession and Metabolism Via Bond‐Specific Microbial Responders

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Oligosaccharides with defined glycosidic bonds drive divergent gut microbial succession and shape unique metabolic profiles. Absolute time‐series profiling with Bayesian generalized Lotka–Volterra modeling identifies bond‐specific microbial responders, while monoculture validation and metaproteomics reveal linkage‐matched transport and cleavage modules.

Microbial Glycoside Hydrolases and Host Cell Signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Glycans, carbohydrate-based macromolecules, are present on the surfaces of all prokaryotes and eukaryotes cells. They play critical roles in cell-cell interactions, and host glycans also provide both binding sites and nutrition for commensal microbes ...

Predicting Enzyme Turnover Numbers and Enabling Rational Enzyme Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MCKcat, a deep learning framework combining multi‐scale convolution and cross‐attention, accurately predicts enzyme turnover number (kcat) by fusing sequence and reaction representations. It couples with rational design in a two‐step strategy for Bacillus aryabhattai laccase engineering, achieving a 75% positive rate with synergistically enhanced ...

Revealing the mechanism for covalent inhibition of glycoside hydrolases by carbasugars at an atomic level

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Mechanism-based inhibitors of glycoside hydrolases are useful probes for basic research and represent potential drug candidates. Here, the authors present a series of mechanism-based covalent α-galactosidase inhibitors and elucidate the kinetic and ...

GH97 is a new family of glycoside hydrolases, which is related to the α-galactosidase superfamily

open access: yesBMC 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.
