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.

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.

The power of seaweeds as plant biostimulants to boost crop production under abiotic stress
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 45, Issue 9, Page 2537-2553, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Abiotic stresses like drought and salinity are major factors resulting in crop yield losses and soil degradation worldwide. To meet increasing food demands, we must improve crop productivity, especially under increasing abiotic stresses due to climate change.

Polysaccharide degradation by the Bacteroidetes: mechanisms and nomenclature
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 13, Issue 5, Page 559-581, October 2021., 2021 Summary The Bacteroidetes phylum is renowned for its ability to degrade a wide range of complex carbohydrates, a trait that has enabled its dominance in many diverse environments. The best studied species inhabit the human gut microbiome and use polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs), discrete genetic structures that encode proteins involved in the ...
