Non-conventional expression of recombinant chitinase A originated from Bacillus licheniformis DSM8785, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae INVSc1 [PDF]
Chitinases are glycosyl hydrolases, that cleave the β-1,4 linkage between N-acetyl glucosamines present in chitin chains. Chitin is the second most abundant polysaccharide on Earth after cellulose, and it is produced in the exoskeleton of crustaceans and

The Neurospora crassa dfg5 and dcw1 genes encode α-1,6-mannanases that function in the incorporation of glycoproteins into the cell wall. [PDF]
The covalent cross-linking of cell wall proteins into the cell wall glucan/chitin matrix is an important step in the biogenesis of the fungal cell wall.

Glycosylation is a fundamental co-translational and/or post-translational modification process where an attachment of sugars onto either proteins or lipids can alter their biological function, subcellular location and modulate the development and ...

Heterotrophic microorganisms in marine sediments produce extracellular enzymes to hydrolyze organic macromolecules, so their products can be transported inside the cell and used for energy and growth. Therefore, extracellular enzymes may mediate the fate

Safety and Modulatory Effects of Humanized Galacto-Oligosaccharides on the Gut Microbiome
Complex dietary carbohydrate structures including β(1–4) galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are resistant to digestion in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract and arrive intact to the colon where they benefit the host by selectively stimulating microbial ...

Draft Genome Sequences of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium LT2 with Deleted Chitinases That Are Emerging Virulence Factors. [PDF]
Chitinases are glycosyl hydrolases that catalyze the hydrolysis of the β-1,4 linkages in complex carbohydrates and those that contain GlcNAc. These enzymes are considered emerging virulence factors during infection because the host glycan changes.

New families in the classification of glycosyl hydrolases based on amino acid sequence similarities.
301 glycosyl hydrolases and related enzymes corresponding to 39 EC entries of the I.U.B. classification system have been classified into 35 families on the basis of amino-acid-sequence similarities [Henrissat (1991) Biochem. J.

Crystal Structure of Imaginal Disc Growth Factor-2 [PDF]
Imaginal disc growth factor-2 (IDGF-2) is a member of a recently described family of Drosophila melanogaster-soluble polypeptide growth factors that promote cell proliferation in imaginal discs.
