Comparative Characterization of Aspergillus Pectin Lyases by Discriminative Substrate Degradation Profiling

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Fungal genomes often contain several copies of genes that encode carbohydrate active enzymes having similar activity. The copies usually have slight sequence variability, and it has been suggested that the multigenecity represents distinct reaction ...

Gene family expansions and contractions are associated with host range in plant pathogens of the genus Colletotrichum [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Many species belonging to the genus Colletotrichum cause anthracnose disease on a wide range of plant species. In addition to their economic impact, the genus Colletotrichum is a useful model for the study of the evolution of host ...

Structure and functional genes associated with carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycling processes in periphyton: A comparison between natural and artificial rivers

River, EarlyView.
Network analysis of functional genes among prokaryotes, and eukaryotes in natural and artificial rivers. Abstract Periphyton in aquatic ecosystems plays vital roles in the elemental cycle process and is vulnerable to anthropogenic interference. However, few studies have explored the elemental cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and ...

A new family of β-helix proteins with similarities to the polysaccharide lyases

Acta Crystallographica Section D Biological Crystallography, 2014
Microorganisms that degrade biomass produce diverse assortments of carbohydrate-active enzymes and binding modules. Despite tremendous advances in the genomic sequencing of these organisms, many genes do not have an ascribed function owing to low sequence identity to genes that have been annotated.

Contribution of cell wall modifying enzymes on the texture of fleshy fruits: The example of apple [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2013
Cell walls consist of polysaccharide assemblies (pectin, hemicelluloses and cellulose), whose structure and interactions vary depending on fruit genetic, and its stage and conditions of development.

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Characterisation of a phylogenetically distinct PL25 family ulvan lyase from a seaweed biomass enriched metagenome

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ulvan is a polysaccharide available from green seaweed with beneficial properties for various applications. The full potential of ulvan requires enzymatic degradation of the polymer, thus producing ulvan oligosaccharides. This study expands the armoury of characterised ulvan lyases.

Transcriptional adapter ADA2 regulates yield and end‐use quality through liquid–liquid phase separation in wheat

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The transcriptional adapter ADA2 interacts with the histone acetyltransferase GCN5 to regulate starch and storage protein content in wheat grains through histone acetylation. ADA2 undergoes phase separation and is modulated by GCN5, affecting histone acetyltransferase activity and gene transcription.
