Production of the Polysaccharide Pullulan by Aureobasidium pullulans Cell Immobilization

open access: yesPolysaccharides, 2022
This review examines the immobilization of A. pullulans cells for production of the fungal polysaccharide pullulan. Pullulan is a water-soluble gum that exists structurally as a glucan consisting primarily of maltotriose units, which has a variety of ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

The molecular basis of polysaccharide cleavage by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases [PDF]

open access: yesNature Chemical Biology, 2016
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper-containing enzymes that oxidatively break down recalcitrant polysaccharides such as cellulose and chitin. Since their discovery, LPMOs have become integral factors in the industrial utilization of biomass, especially in the sustainable generation of cellulosic bioethanol.
