Cereal Arabinoxylans—Their Enzymatic Degradation and Relevance for Breadmaking and Human Health
Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT As the most abundant nonstarch polysaccharides in cereals, arabinoxylans (AXs) contribute significantly to the global intake of dietary fiber. They play a crucial role in the breadmaking process with respect to dough rheology and texture, bread volume, and nutritional quality, especially when starting from wheat or rye flour.

Characterization of the Lipopolysaccharide from a \u3cem\u3eRhizobium phaseoli\u3c/em\u3e Mutant that is Defective in Infection Thread Development [PDF]
, 1987 The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from a Rhizobium phaseoli mutant, CE109, was isolated and compared with that of its wild-type parent, CE3. A previous report has shown that the mutant is defective in infection thread development, and sodium dodecyl sulfate ...

Pharmacokinetic profile of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate association in healthy male individuals [PDF]
, 2005 Osteoarthrosis is a chronic joint disease that, once patent, leads to a progressive functional disability. As proteochondroitin sulfates are the major contents of the cartilage, it is expected that the ingestion of glucosamine and chondroitin might ...

Matrix: a complex amalgam of structures and functions in tumor microenvironment
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 10, Page 1552-1569, October 2025.The matrix is a dynamic, intricate three‐dimensional mesh of biomolecules with both structural and functional properties. This review deals with the complexity of this ‘molecular amalgam’ in the tumor microenvironment and highlights its importance in the maintenance and evolution of tumors by describing certain matrix biomolecules, such as ...

Molecular Evolution and Gene Diversity of Dermatan Sulfate Sulfotransferases in Ascidians
Proteoglycan Research, Volume 3, Issue 4, October 2025.ABSTRACT Ascidians (Chordata, Tunicata) are model organisms for studying molecules, particularly sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), due to their phylogenetic proximity to vertebrates and unique GAG variants. Over‐sulfated dermatan sulfate (DS) contributes to proteoglycan diversity and cellular processes in metazoans.

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 17, 15 September 2025.Heparanase 1 (HPSE1) and Heparanase 2 (HPSE2) exhibit opposing expression patterns and functions in pathological contexts, such as cancer. Here, we describe their specific expression in immune cells and their implications in skin diseases. Although they are structurally similar and considered to be ‘cousins’, we found no common ancestor and that HPSE2 ...

RapA2 is a calcium-binding lectin composed of two highly conserved cadherin-like domains that specifically recognize Rhizobium leguminosarum acidic exopolysaccharides [PDF]
, 2012 In silico analyses have revealed a conserved protein domain (CHDL) widely present in bacteria that has significant structural similarity to eukaryotic cadherins. A CHDL domain was shown to be present in RapA, a protein that is involved in autoaggregation

2-O-methyl-
Biochemical Journal, 1976 Acid hydrolysis of the extracellular polysaccharide of Porphyridium cruentum (a unicellular red alga) produced a mixture of aldobiuronic acids and free hexuronic acids. Fractionation of this mixture on an ion-exchange column yielded a hexuronic acid characterized as the title compound.
