Characterisation of a phylogenetically distinct PL25 family ulvan lyase from a seaweed biomass enriched metagenome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ulvan is a polysaccharide available from green seaweed with beneficial properties for various applications. The full potential of ulvan requires enzymatic degradation of the polymer, thus producing ulvan oligosaccharides. This study expands the armoury of characterised ulvan lyases.

Phycocyanobilin biosynthesis in Galdieria sulphuraria requires isomerization of phycoerythrobilin synthesized by bilin reductases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The biosynthesis of bilins, tetrapyrroles essential for light harvesting and sensing, is performed by specific enzymes (FDBRs). In Galdieria sulphuraria, both phycobiliprotein types bind phycocyanobilin, despite lacking the canonical synthesizing gene PCYA. Instead, PEBA and PEBB are encoded, producing phycoerythrobilin, proposed to be later isomerized

Pigment and fatty acid profiling reveal differences in epiphytic microphytes among tropical Thalassodendron ciliatum meadows

open access: yes, 2020
Tropical seagrasses support abundant and diverse epiphytic microalgae that form the base of seagrass food webs. To help better understand the influence of structural variability of tropical seagrass meadows on associated microalgal epiphytes, we ...

Novel Hydrurus species (Chrysophyceae) and their adaptations to high‐altitude European and Arctic snowfields

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Colored snow caused by green algae (Chlorophyceae) is well known, but melting snowpacks can also harbor golden‐brown blooms consisting of Chrysophyceae. We collected 14 samples of cryoflora in the Austrian and Swiss Alps, the High Tatras in Slovakia, and in Arctic Svalbard. Eight laboratory unicellular flagellated strains were established from

Classification, naming and evolutionary history of glycosyltransferases from sequenced green and red algal genomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The Archaeplastida consists of three lineages, Rhodophyta, Virideplantae and Glaucophyta. The extracellular matrix of most members of the Rhodophyta and Viridiplantae consists of carbohydrate-based or a highly glycosylated protein-based cell wall while ...
