Genes for degradation and utilization of uronic acid-containing polysaccharides of a marine bacterium Catenovulum sp. CCB-QB4 [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
Background Oligosaccharides from polysaccharides containing uronic acids are known to have many useful bioactivities. Thus, polysaccharide lyases (PLs) and glycoside hydrolases (GHs) involved in producing the oligosaccharides have attracted interest in ...

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.

Integrated transcriptomics and proteomics analysis reveals muscle metabolism effects of dietary Ulva lactuca and ulvan lyase supplementation in weaned piglets [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Seaweeds, including the green Ulva lactuca, can potentially reduce competition between feed, food, and fuel. They can also contribute to the improved development of weaned piglets.

Biochemical characterization of a novel ulvan lyase from Pseudoalteromonas sp. strain PLSV. [PDF]

RSC Adv, 2018
Ulvans, complex polysaccharides found in the ulvales (green seaweed) cell wall, contain predominantly 3-sulfated rhamnose (Rha3S) linked to either d -glucuronic acid, l -iduronic acid or d -xylose.

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

Ulvan lyase assisted structural characterization of ulvan from Ulva pertusa and its antiviral activity against vesicular stomatitis virus

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2020
Marine green algae are valuable sources of diverse health-promoting bioactive components. Ulvan is suitable for biological applications due to its unique structure and numerous bioactivities. Here, the complex structure of ulvan from Ulva pertusa was analyzed using specific ulvan lyase degradation, MS, and NMR detection.

Marine Polysaccharides: Occurrence, Enzymatic Degradation and Utilization. [PDF]

Chembiochem, 2021
Algae biomass is a source for many valuable compounds for the pharmaceutical and chemical industry. Especially marine polysaccharides contain rare sugars of interest, but a major bottleneck is access to these sugars. In this mini‐review the common knowledge of marine CAZyme‐based deconstruction of these polysaccharides and the biotechnological ...

Debaryomyces hansenii, Stenotrophomonas rhizophila, and Ulvan as Biocontrol Agents of Fruit Rot Disease in Muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.)

Plants, 2022
The indiscriminate use of synthetic fungicides has led to negative impact to human health and to the environment. Thus, we investigated the effects of postharvest biocontrol treatment with Debaryomyces hansenii, Stenotrophomonas rhizophila, and a ...

Seasonal dynamics of a glycan‐degrading flavobacterial genus in a tidally mixed coastal temperate habitat

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 3192-3206, December 2023., 2023
We investigated the seasonal dynamics of abundance and activity of Zobellia, an environmentally relevant glycan‐degrading bacterial genus in coastal habitats. We show it is a stable, low‐abundance component of healthy macroalgal microbiota that can also colonise particles in the water column.

Taking Synthetic Biology to the Seas: From Blue Chassis Organisms to Marine Aquaforming

ChemBioChem, Volume 24, Issue 13, July 3, 2023., 2023
Marine bacteria have recently been established as chassis organisms for synthetic biology. Their unique capabilities for sustainable bioproduction and large‐scale bioremediation are summarized in this review, and recent advances in genetic tool development, use of marine raw materials, and emerging technologies for aquaforming are highlighted ...
