Identification of a novel fungus, Leptosphaerulina chartarum SJTU59 and characterization of its xylanolytic enzymes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Xylanolytic enzymes are widely used in processing industries, e.g., pulp and paper, food, livestock feeds, and textile. Furthermore, certain xylanotic enzymes have demonstrated the capability to improve the resistance and immunity of plants. Screening of

Fungal xylanolytic enzymes: Diversity and applications
Bioresource Technology, 2022 As important polysaccharide degraders in nature, fungi can diversify their extensive set of carbohydrate-active enzymes to survive in ecological habitats of various composition. Among these enzymes, xylanolytic ones can efficiently and sustainably degrade xylans into (fermentable) monosaccharides to produce valuable chemicals or fuels from, for example

Biochemical characterization of two thermostable xylanolytic enzymes encoded by a gene cluster of Caldicellulosiruptor owensensis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The xylanolytic extremely thermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor owensensis provides a promising platform for xylan utilization. In the present study, two novel xylanolytic enzymes, GH10 endo-β-1,4-xylanase (Coxyn A) and GH39 β-1,4-xylosidase (Coxyl

Sensitization to xylanolytic enzymes: an underestimated health hazard among bakers. [PDF]
Occup Med (Lond), 2016 The most important occupational allergens in baking include flour and enzymes, especially α-amylase. Although xylanolytic enzymes have previously been described as sensitizers, they may be overlooked during assessment of bakery workers with work-related symptoms.To report a case of a baker who suffered from work-related respiratory, ocular and skin ...

Genomic and secretomic analyses of Blastobotrys yeasts reveal key xylanases for biomass decomposition [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and BiotechnologyXylanolytic enzyme systems in ascomycetous yeasts remain underexplored, despite the presence of yeasts in various xylan-rich ecological niches. In this study, we investigated the secreted xylanolytic machineries of three Blastobotrys species—B. mokoenaii,

Anaerobic fungi and their cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes
Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek, 1993 Anaerobic fungi are the inhabitants of the digestive tract of herbivorous mammals, ruminants as well as non-ruminants. One of the major characteristics of all anaerobic fungi examined thus far, is their production and secretion of a range of polysaccharide-degrading enzymes, including cellulases, xylanases and glucoside-hydrolases.

Characterization and identification of the xylanolytic enzymes from Aspergillus fumigatus Z5. [PDF]
BMC Microbiol, 2015 Plant biomass, the most abundant natural material on earth, represents a vast source of food and energy in nature. As the main component of plant biomass, xylan is a complex polysaccharide comprising a linear β(1,4)-linked backbone of xylosyl residues substituted by acetyl, arabinosyl, glucuronysyl and 4-O-methylglucuronycyl residues.Aspergillus ...

Thermostability of xylanolytic enzymes produced by Lentinula edodes UFV70. [PDF]
Braz J Microbiol, 2012 Xylanolytic enzymes produced by Lentinula edodes UFV70, cultivated in eucalyptus sawdust/rice bran medium, were stable at 50, 60 and 65°C for 21 hours, losing only 15-25% activity. Fungus incubation at 50°C for 12 hours and at 65°C for 24 hours increased the amount of xylose produced.
