A Novel Structural Fold in Polysaccharide Lyases [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007 Rhamnogalacturonan (RG) lyase produced by plant pathogenic and saprophytic microbes plays an important role in degrading plant cell walls. An extracellular RG lyase YesW from saprophytic Bacillus subtilis is a member of polysaccharide lyase family 11 and

FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 1995 Polysaccharide lyases are the products of various microorganisms, bacteriophage and some eukaryotes. All such enzymes cleave a hexose-1,4-alpha- or beta-uronic acid sequence by beta-elimination. They are in some examples, the only known type of enzymes degrading their polyanionic substrates.

A hierarchical classification of polysaccharide lyases for glycogenomics [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2010 Carbohydrate-active enzymes face huge substrate diversity in a highly selective manner using only a limited number of available folds. They are therefore subjected to multiple divergent and convergent evolutionary events. This and their frequent modularity render their functional annotation in genomes difficult in a number of cases.

Insights into the mechanism of substrate specificity in a novel PL15_3 subfamily oligo-alginate lyase VBAly15A [PDF]
Applied and Environmental MicrobiologyAlginate is a major component of brown algae cell walls and can be degraded via β-elimination by alginate lyases. These enzymes are classified into polysaccharide lyases and oligo-alginate lyases (Oals), with Oals mainly represented by the PL15 and PL17 ...
