Engineering broad-spectrum digestion of polyuronides from an exolytic polysaccharide lyase. [PDF]
Macroalgae represents a promising source of fermentable carbohydrates for use in the production of energy efficient biofuel. The primary carbohydrate in brown algae is the uronic acid-containing alginate, whereas green algae contains a significant amount of glucuronan.

Genes for degradation and utilization of uronic acid-containing polysaccharides of a marine bacterium Catenovulum sp. CCB-QB4 [PDF]
Background Oligosaccharides from polysaccharides containing uronic acids are known to have many useful bioactivities. Thus, polysaccharide lyases (PLs) and glycoside hydrolases (GHs) involved in producing the oligosaccharides have attracted interest in ...

Polysaccharide lyases from gellan-producing Sphingomonas spp. [PDF]
A number ofSphingomonasstrains capable of synthesizing the bacterial exopolysaccharide gellan and related polymers were shown to possess constitutive gellanase activity. In each case, the degradation of deacylated gellan was due to extracellular, eliminase-type enzymes (lyases) which cleave the sequence …ß-D-glucosyl 1,4-ß-D-glucuronosyl… in the ...

Biochemical, kinetic, and spectroscopic characterization of Ruegeria pomeroyi DddW - A mononuclear iron-dependent DMSP lyase [PDF]
The osmolyte dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is a key nutrient in marine environments and its catabolism by bacteria through enzymes known as DMSP lyases generates dimethylsulfide (DMS), a gas of importance in climate regulation, the sulfur cycle, and ...

Rhamnogalacturonan lyase reveals a unique three‐domain modular structure for polysaccharide lyase family 4 [PDF]
Rhamnogalacturonan lyase (RG‐lyase) specifically recognizes and cleaves α‐1,4 glycosidic bonds between l‐rhamnose and d‐galacturonic acids in the backbone of rhamnogalacturonan‐I, a major component of the plant cell wall polysaccharide, pectin.
