Probing the pH Effects on Sugar Binding to a Polysaccharide Lyase [PDF]
Polysaccharide lyases (PLs) are an important class of proteins that are excreted from bacteria to degrade sugars in the extracellular matrix of the host. The PL from S. maltophilia (Smlt1473) was found to have pH-specific degradation of three varying polysaccharides: alginate, celluronic acid, and hyaluronic acid (J. Biol. Chem. 2014, 289, 18022-18032).

Application of marine bacterial alginate lyases in wastewater treatment, biofilm removal and green technology [PDF]
Alginate lyases are a class of enzymes capable of cleaving alginate, a major structural polysaccharide present in the cell walls of brown algae. In recent years, marine bacteria have emerged as a valuable and diverse source of these enzymes, owing to ...

Variations in Cell Wall-Modifying Enzyme Activities and Physicochemical Properties of Pectin in Kiwifruit during Postharvest Softening [PDF]
In this study, we monitored changes in fruit hardness, cell wall-modifying enzyme activities such as polygalacturonase (PG), pectin methylesterase (PME), pectin lyases (PL) and β-galactosidase (β-Gal), and physiochemical properties of three cell wall ...

Development and validation of a microarray for the investigation of the CAZymes encoded by the human gut microbiome. [PDF]
Distal gut bacteria play a pivotal role in the digestion of dietary polysaccharides by producing a large number of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) that the host otherwise does not produce.
