Efficient cloning system for construction of gene silencing vectors in Aspergillus niger [PDF]

, 2008
An approach based on Gateway recombination technology to efficiently construct silencing vectors was developed for use in the biotechnologically important fungus Aspergillus niger. The transcription activator of xylanolytic and cellulolytic genes XlnR of

Acacia Xylan as a Substitute for Commercially Available Xylan and Its Application in the Production of Xylooligosaccharides [PDF]

ACS Omega, 2020
Over the past two decades, birchwood and beechwood xylans have been used as a popular substrate for the characterization of xylanases. Recently, major companies have discontinued their commercial production. Therefore, there is a need to find an alternative to these substrates. Xylan extraction from Acacia sawdust resulted in 23.5% (w/w) yield.

Nanohaloarchaea as beneficiaries of xylan degradation by haloarchaea

Microbial Biotechnology, 2023
AbstractClimate change, desertification, salinisation of soils and the changing hydrology of the Earth are creating or modifying microbial habitats at all scales including the oceans, saline groundwaters and brine lakes. In environments that are saline or hypersaline, the biodegradation of recalcitrant plant and animal polysaccharides can be inhibited ...

Comparative Analysis of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Miscanthus Xylan using Aspergillus niger, Hypocrea orientalis, and Trichoderma reesei Xylan-degrading Enzymes

BioResources, 2014
Xylan-degrading enzymes from Aspergillus niger and Hypocrea orientalis were characterized by enzyme activity assays and protein profiling with SDS-PAGE and LC-MS/MS. The hydrolysis of Miscanthus xylan by xylan-degrading enzymes from A.

Mutations of Arabidopsis TBL32 and TBL33 Affect Xylan Acetylation and Secondary Wall Deposition. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Xylan is a major acetylated polymer in plant lignocellulosic biomass and it can be mono- and di-acetylated at O-2 and O-3 as well as mono-acetylated at O-3 of xylosyl residues that is substituted with glucuronic acid (GlcA) at O-2.

Engineering of Bioenergy Crops: Dominant Genetic Approaches to Improve Polysaccharide Properties and Composition in Biomass. [PDF]

, 2020
Large-scale, sustainable production of lignocellulosic bioenergy from biomass will depend on a variety of dedicated bioenergy crops. Despite their great genetic diversity, prospective bioenergy crops share many similarities in the polysaccharide ...

In muro deacetylation of xylan affects lignin properties and improves saccharification of aspen wood

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
Background Lignocellulose from fast growing hardwood species is a preferred source of polysaccharides for advanced biofuels and “green” chemicals. However, the extensive acetylation of hardwood xylan hinders lignocellulose saccharification by obstructing

Effect of citric acid on properties of (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane modified xylan/polyvinyl alcohol composite film

Cailiao gongcheng, 2023
In order to improved the defects of xylan-based films such as strong hygroscopicity and low mechanical strength, a collaborative modification protocol of citric acid (CA) and MPTMS-modified xylan (MSMX) was proposed.

Surface properties of xylan and xylan derivatives measured by inverse gas chromatography [PDF]

Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 2016
Abstract Xylan (the most common hemicellulose in wood and annual plants) and xylan derivatives have a very wide field of uses for which physico-chemical surface properties play an important role (e.g. in composites or barrier materials). In the present work, for the first time, inverse gas chromatography (at infinite dilution conditions) was used to ...
