Bioinformatic characterisation of genes encoding cell wall degrading enzymes in the Phytophthora parasitica genome [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: A critical aspect of plant infection by the majority of pathogens is penetration of the plant cell wall. This process requires the production and secretion of a broad spectrum of pathogen enzymes that target and degrade the many complex ...

Wood-derived dietary fibers promote beneficial human gut microbiota [PDF]
, 2019 Woody biomass is a sustainable and virtually unlimited source of hemicellulosic polysaccharides. The predominant hemicelluloses in softwood and hardwood are galactoglucomannan (GGM) and arabinoglucuronoxylan (AGX), respectively.

Xylan-Degrading Catalytic Flagellar Nanorods [PDF]
Molecular Biotechnology, 2015 Flagellin, the main component of flagellar filaments, is a protein possessing polymerization ability. In this work, a novel fusion construct of xylanase A from B. subtilis and Salmonella flagellin was created which is applicable to build xylan-degrading catalytic nanorods of high stability.

The pattern of xylan acetylation suggests xylan may interact with cellulose microfibrils as a twofold helical screw in the secondary plant cell wall of Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
, 2014 The interaction between xylan and cellulose microfibrils is important for secondary cell wall properties in vascular plants; however, the molecular arrangement of xylan in the cell wall and the nature of the molecular bonding between the polysaccharides ...

A novel xylan degrading β-D-xylosidase: purification and biochemical characterization [PDF]
, 2012 Aspergillus ochraceus, a thermotolerant fungus isolated in Brazil from decomposing materials, produced an extracellular b-xylosidase that was purified using DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography, Sephadex G-100 and Biogel P-60 gel filtration.

Alterations of the degree of xylan acetylation inArabidopsisxylan mutants [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2014 Xylan is the second most abundant polysaccharide in secondary walls of dicot plants and one of its structural features is the high degree of acetylation of xylosyl residues. In Arabidopsis, about 60% of xylosyl residues in xylan are acetylated and the biochemical mechanisms controlling xylan acetylation are largely unknown.

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.
