Enzymatic Oxidation of Carbohydrate Byproducts for Use in Formation of Chitosan Hydrogels. [PDF]

Chembiochem
Carbohydrates, i.e., xylooligosaccharides derived from corn cobs and lactose derived from dairy byproducts, were selectively oxidized using fungal oxidoreductases AbPDH1 (pyranose dehydrogenase from Agaricus bisporus) and FgrGalOx (galactose oxidase from Fusarium graminearum).

Novel GH115 xylan α-1,2-glucuronidases with distinct preferences for xylan-derived oligomers and polymers. [PDF]

Protein Sci
Abstract Natural polymers are promising sustainable materials for diverse applications. Xylans, major components of hemicellulose, exhibit origin‐dependent substitution patterns that determine their physicochemical properties. Targeted enzymatic modification of these substituents offers a mild and precise approach for tailoring the polymer's ...
