Biochemical Studies and Production Optimization of β‐Glucosidase From Microcystis aeruginosa CACIAM 03 Using Organic Waste

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming and industrial pollutants pose significant threats to environmental sustainability. In response, enzymes have emerged as promising tools for mitigating pollution. Enzymatic hydrolysis is considered environmentally sustainable due to its biological nature.

Discovery of a Kojibiose Hydrolase by Analysis of Specificity-Determining Correlated Positions in Glycoside Hydrolase Family 65

Molecules, 2021
The Glycoside Hydrolase Family 65 (GH65) is an enzyme family of inverting α-glucoside phosphorylases and hydrolases that currently contains 10 characterized enzyme specificities. However, its sequence diversity has never been studied in detail.

How a Glycoside Hydrolase Recognizes a Helical Polyglucan [PDF]

Structure, 2017
Similarly to other biopolymers, linear polysaccharides can form double- or triple-helical structures. How enzymes recognize and manage this quaternary structure is an unresolved question. In this issue of Structure, Pluvinage et al. (2017) shed light on the structural complementarity between family GH81 glycoside hydrolase and the quaternary structure ...

Polycationic Peptide Engineering of Phage Endolysins Expands Host Range and Enhances Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Activities Against Bacillus Species

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exponential rise in antimicrobial resistance has highlighted the urgent need for the development of alternative antibacterial strategies, including phage‐derived and engineered protein agents such as endolysins and artilysins. In this study, we report the rational design, expression, and functional characterization of novel artilysins ...

Genome-Wide Analysis of Whole Human Glycoside Hydrolases by Data-Driven Analysis in Silico

, 2019
Glycans are involved in various metabolic processes via the functions of glycosyltransferases and glycoside hydrolases. Analysing the evolution of these enzymes is essential for improving the understanding of glycan metabolism and function.

GH172 Difructose Dianhydride I Synthase: A Two‐Stepped Journey via Glycosylation and Cyclization Using QM/MM Metadynamics

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Unlocking the chemistry of caramel by simulations and experimental validation. αFFase1${\alpha }\rm{FFase1}$ converts inulobiose into difructose dianhydride I, one component of caramel, through two steps: a rate‐limiting glycosylation (with a rare sugar ring flip) followed by a cyclization step, guided by residues E85, K147, and N226.
