The structure of a family 168 glycoside hydrolase from the marine bacterium Muricauda eckloniae

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section F, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 281-286, July 2025.
The structure of a putative fucoidan‐degrading glycoside hydrolase assigned to glycoside hydrolase family 168 reveals a (β/α)8 fold. The catalytic machinery and potential substrate specificity were investigated through a structural comparison with a Fun168A oligosaccharide complex.The genome of the marine bacterium Muricauda eckloniae sp.

Extraction of sulfated polysaccharides by autohydrolysis of brown seaweed Fucus vesiculosus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The extraction of sulfated polysaccharides (fucoidan) by autohydrolysis (AH) of brown seaweed Fucus vesiculosus was studied. Experimental assays were performed under different conditions of temperature (160 to 200°C) and reaction time (10 to 30 min ...

Wenyingzhuangia fucanilytica sp. nov., a sulfated fucan utilizing bacterium isolated from shallow coastal seawater

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016
A Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, strictly aerobic, non-flagellated, non-gliding and yellow-pigmented bacterial strain, designated as strain CZ1127T, capable of utilizing sulfated fucan, was isolated from shallow coastal seawater of Jiaozhou Bay, Qingdao, PR China. Its taxonomic position was investigated by a polyphasic approach. CZ1127T grew at 15-

Isolation and Culture of a Marine Bacterium Degrading the Sulfated Fucans from Marine Brown Algae [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Biotechnology, 2006
Fucoidans are matrix polysaccharides from marine brown algae, consisting of an alpha-L-fucose backbone substituted by sulfate-ester groups and masked with ramifications containing other monosaccharide residues. In spite of their interest as biologically active compounds in a number of homologous and heterologous systems, no convenient sources with ...

Plant polysaccharide‐capped nanoparticles: A sustainable approach to modulate gut microbiota and advance functional food applications

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 2, March 2025.
Abstract Plant‐derived polysaccharides have emerged as sustainable biopolymers for fabricating nanoparticles (polysaccharide‐based nanomaterials [PS‐NPs]), presenting unique opportunities to enhance food functionality and human health. PS‐NPs exhibit exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability, and structural versatility, enabling their integration ...

Mild acid hydrolysis of sulfated fucans: a selective 2-desulfation reaction and an alternative approach for preparing tailored sulfated oligosaccharides [PDF]

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2005
Sulfated fucans from marine invertebrates have simple, linear structures, composed of repeating units of oligosaccharides. Most of these polysaccharides contain 3-linked fucosyl units, but each species of invertebrate has a specific pattern of sulfation.
