Transglycosylation Action of Amylases
Journal of the Japanese Society of Starch Science, 1973 By using the substrates of defined anomeric form, with very brief incubation to limit mutarotation, evidence has been obtained that the condensations require donor substrates of specific configuration. That is, crystalline glucoamylase from Rh, niveus has been found to catalyze the rapid synthesis of maltose and a slower synthesis of isomaltose ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 23, Page 3417-3443, December 2025.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 ...

ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 23, November 27, 2025.An N‐galactosyl aziridine is found to have μM range mixed inhibition constants (K i and K i’) for a fungal β‐galactosidase. Aziridine‐bearing cyclic polyols are established as irreversible covalent inhibitors of glycosyl hydrolases and have been employed as activity‐based probes.
