vAL‐1, a novel polysaccharide lyase encoded by chlorovirus CVK2 [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2004 Cell wall materials isolated from Chlorella cells were degraded by the polysaccharide‐degrading enzyme vAL‐1 encoded by chlorovirus CVK2. Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometric analyses of the degradation products (oligosaccharides) revealed major oligosaccharides contain unsaturated GlcA at the reducing terminus,

Characterization of AlgMsp, an alginate lyase from Microbulbifer sp. 6532A.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Alginate is a polysaccharide produced by certain seaweeds and bacteria that consists of mannuronic acid and guluronic acid residues. Seaweed alginate is used in food and industrial chemical processes, while the biosynthesis of bacterial alginate is ...

Marine Bacteria, A Source for Alginolytic Enzyme to Disrupt Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms
Marine Drugs, 2019 Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms are typically associated with the chronic lung infection of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and represent a major challenge for treatment. This opportunistic bacterial pathogen secretes alginate, a polysaccharide that is one

Overexpression of Thermal and pH Stable Alginate Lyase of P. aeruginosa 293 and In silico Study of algL Gene [PDF]
Journal of Genetic Resources, 2021 P. aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium that produces a capsule-like polysaccharide called alginate in response to various stimuli. The mucoid strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces alginate which is an exopolysaccharide and is involved in the ...

Structural and mechanistic classification of uronic acid-containing polysaccharide lyases [PDF]
Glycobiology, 2010 Polysaccharide lyases (PLs) have been assigned to 21 families based on their sequences, with ~ 50 singletons awaiting further classification. For 19 of these families, the structure of at least one protein is known. In this review, we have analyzed the available structural information and show that presently known PL families belong to six general ...

Microbial community and functions associated with digestion of algal polysaccharides in the visceral tract of Haliotis discus hannai: Insights from metagenome and metatranscriptome analysis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Haliotis discus hannai, a species of Pacific abalone, is a highly valuable food source throughout Northeast Asia. As H. discus hannai primarily feed on brown algae and largely extract their energy from algal polysaccharides, understanding the mechanisms ...
