Effect on Broiler Production Performance and Meat Quality of Feeding Ulva lactuca Supplemented with Carbohydrases [PDF]
Animals, 2022 The aim of the study was to test if feeding 15% U. lactuca to broilers, alone or combined with carbohydrases, enhanced meat nutritional quality, without compromising growth performance.

Ulvan Lyases Isolated from the Flavobacteria Persicivirga ulvanivorans Are the First Members of a New Polysaccharide Lyase Family [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2011 Ulvans are complex sulfated polysaccharides found in the cell walls of green algae belonging to the genus Ulva. These polysaccharides are composed of disaccharide repetition moieties made up of sulfated rhamnose linked to either glucuronic acid, iduronic acid, or xylose.

Structure-function analyses of a PL24 family ulvan lyase reveal key features and suggest its catalytic mechanism. [PDF]
J Biol Chem, 2018 Ulvan is a major cell wall component of green algae of the genus Ulva, and some marine bacteria encode enzymes that can degrade this polysaccharide. The first ulvan-degrading lyases have been recently characterized, and several putative ulvan lyases have been recombinantly expressed, confirmed as ulvan lyases, and partially characterized.

Revised domain structure of ulvan lyase and characterization of the first ulvan binding domain. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 AbstractBiomass waste products from green algae have recently been given new life, as these polysaccharides have potential applications in industry, agriculture, and medicine. One such polysaccharide group called ulvans displays many different, potentially useful properties that arise from their structural versatility.

A novel ulvan lyase family with broad-spectrum activity from the ulvan utilisation loci of Formosa agariphila KMM 3901. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 AbstractUlvan, which is one of the major structural polysaccharides of the cell walls of green macroalgae, is degraded by ulvan lyases via the β-elimination mechanism with the release of oligosaccharides that have unsaturated 4-deoxy-L-threo-hex-4-enopyranosiduronic acid (∆) at the non-reducing end. These ulvan lyases belong to the PL24 or PL25 or PL28

Metabolic engineering enables Bacillus licheniformis to grow on the marine polysaccharide ulvan [PDF]
Microbial Cell Factories, 2022 Background Marine algae are responsible for half of the global primary production, converting carbon dioxide into organic compounds like carbohydrates. Particularly in eutrophic waters, they can grow into massive algal blooms.

Dietary Ulva lactuca and CAZyme supplementation improve serum biochemical profile and hepatic composition of weaned piglets [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Ulva lactuca is a seaweed with antinutritional cell wall for monogastrics. Carbohydrate-Active enZymes (CAZymes) supplementation can potentially cause its disruption. This study evaluates four diets: Ctrl—control diet; UL—control + 7% U.

Structural and functional characterization of PL28 family ulvan lyase NLR48 from Nonlabens ulvanivorans. [PDF]
J Biol Chem, 2018 Ulvan is a complex sulfated polysaccharide present in the cell wall of green algae of the genus Ulva (Chlorophyta). The first ulvan-degrading polysaccharide lyases were identified several years ago, and more were discovered through genome sequencing of marine bacteria. Ulvan lyases are now grouped in three polysaccharide lyase (PL) families in the CAZy
