Xylan extraction from pretreated sugarcane bagasse using alkaline and enzymatic approaches
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background New biorefinery concepts are necessary to drive industrial use of lignocellulose biomass components. Xylan recovery before enzymatic hydrolysis of the glucan component is a way to add value to the hemicellulose fraction, which can be used in ...

Developing pericarp of maize: a model to study arabinoxylan synthesis and feruloylation
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Cell walls are comprised of networks of entangled polymers that differ considerably between species, tissues and developmental stages. The cell walls of grasses, a family that encompasses major crops, contain specific polysaccharide structures such as ...

Conversion of xylan by recyclable spores of Bacillus subtilis displaying thermophilic enzymes
Microbial Cell Factories, 2017 Background The Bacillus subtilis spore has long been used to display antigens and enzymes. Spore display can be accomplished by a recombinant and a non-recombinant approach, with the latter proved more efficient than the recombinant one.

Structure of Hardwood Xylan and Specificity ofStreptomyces β-Xylanase toward the Xylan [PDF]
Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 1994 Three kinds of xylo-oligosaccharides having structures of 3(2)-beta-xylosylxylobiose, 3(2)-beta-xylobiosylxylobiose, and 2(2)-beta-xylobiosyl-xylobiose were isolated from an enzymatic hydrolysate of hardwood xylan with Streptomyces beta-xylanase. The structures suggest that the hardwood xylan has both (1-->2)- and (1-->3)-beta-D-xylopyranosyl linkages ...

Hyperthermostable acetyl xylan esterase [PDF]
Microbial Biotechnology, 2009 Summary An esterase which is encoded within a Thermotoga maritima chromosomal gene cluster for xylan degradation and utilization was characterized after heterologous expression of the corresponding gene in Escherichia coli and ...

Efficient Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Biomass Hemicellulose in the Absence of Bulk Water
Molecules, 2019 Current enzymatic methods for hemicellulosic biomass depolymerization are solution-based, typically require a harsh chemical pre-treatment of the material and large volumes of water, yet lack in efficiency. In our study, xylanase (E.C.

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.
