The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Heterologous expression and functional characterization of a GH10 endoxylanase from \u3ci\u3eAspergillus fumigatus\u3c/i\u3e var. \u3ci\u3eniveus\u3c/i\u3e with potential biotechnological application [PDF]

, 2019
Xylanases decrease the xylan content in pretreated biomass releasing it from hemicellulose, thus improving the accessibility of cellulose for cellulases. In this work, an endo-β-1,4-xylanase from Aspergillus fumigatus var.

Biochemical characterization of the xylan hydrolysis profile of the extracellular endo-xylanase from Geobacillus thermodenitrificans T12

BMC Biotechnology, 2017
Background Endo-xylanases are essential in degrading hemicellulose of various lignocellulosic substrates. Hemicellulose degradation by Geobacillus spp. is facilitated by the hemicellulose utilization (HUS) locus that is present in most strains belonging ...

Gallic Acid‐Responsive microRNAs Reprogram Lignification During Drought Acclimation Process in Spearmint

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mentha spicata L. (spearmint) is a high‐value aromatic and medicinal species, whose productivity is strongly affected by water deficit. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying drought acclimation in this mint remain largely unexplored. Thus, here, we investigated the microRNA‐mediated regulatory processes triggered in M.

Tuning Xylan Polymerisation Enhanced Fibre Digestibility Without Biomass Loss in Sheepgrass (Leymus chinensis)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leymus chinensis (sheepgrass), a dominant perennial grass of the Eurasian Steppe, is a crucial source of carbohydrates and energy for ruminants. However, the lignocellulose recalcitrance severely limits its digestibility. Here, we targeted xylan, a major hemicellulose interacting with cellulose and lignin in cell wall. To improve digestibility,

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

Bioprospecting xylanase enzymes from environmental samples [PDF]

, 2014
Hemicelluloses are a group of heteropolysaccharides which accounts for 33% by dry weight of the total lignocellulosic biomass. Xylan is one of the most important and abundantly found hemicellulose which has diverse structures according to the source from

Chemical Modification of Xylan

, 2021
Our study is part of the general context of valuing by-products from the wood industry, which consists of the chemical modification of xylan by synthesis of branched copolymers such as xylan-g-PLLA. The used xylan is extracted from chestnut and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) is the catalyst.

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...
