Homology to peptide pattern for annotation of carbohydrate-active enzymes and prediction of function [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Carbohydrate-active enzymes are found in all organisms and participate in key biological processes.These enzymes are classified in 274 families in the CAZy database but the sequence diversity within each family makes it a major task to ...

Synthesis and Glycosidase Inhibition Studies of Novel Exoglycals Targeting GH3 Family Enzymes: Insights from Comparative Analysis with Macrolide Antibiotics

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A series of structurally diverse exoglycals was synthesized using a modified Julia‐olefination approach from sugar‐derived precursors. These glycosidase transition‐state mimics were further diversified via CuAAC chemistry to yield triazole‐conjugated analogues.

Catalysis by hen egg-white lysozyme proceeds via a covalent intermediate [PDF]

, 2001
Hen egg-white lysozyme (HEWL) was the first enzyme to have its three-dimensional structure determined by X-ray diffraction techniques(1). A catalytic mechanism, featuring a long-lived oxo-carbenium-ion intermediate, was proposed on the basis of model ...

Comparative Analysis of Fungal Communities and the Key “Golden‐Flower” Fungi in Fu Brick Tea From Seven Chinese Regions and Their Effects on the Quality of Summer‐Autumn Tea

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
This study systematically investigated 52 Fu brick tea (FBT) samples collected from seven representative regions in China. High‐through put sequencing revealed that Aspergillus, Wallemia, and Candida were the predominant fungal genera across the samples.

A discrete genetic locus confers xyloglucan metabolism in select human gut Bacteroidetes [PDF]

, 2014
A well-balanced human diet includes a significant intake of non-starch polysaccharides, collectively termed 'dietary fibre', from the cell walls of diverse fruits and vegetables. Owing to the paucity of alimentary enzymes encoded by the human genome, our

Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.
