The functions of plant glycoside hydrolases and transglycosidases have been studied using
different biochemical and molecular genetic approaches. These enzymes are involved in the …

Mannan is the major constituent of hemicelluloses in softwoods. Mannan hydrolyzing
enzymes cleave the 1, 4-β-mannopyranosyl linkages of the hetero-1, 4-β-d-mannans to yield …

Proteomic analysis of the stigmatic exudate of Lilium longiflorum and Olea europaea led to
the identification of 51 and 57 proteins, respectively, most of which are described for the first …

To metabolize both dietary fiber constituent carbohydrates and host glycans lining the
intestinal epithelium, gut bacteria produce a wide range of carbohydrate-active enzymes, of …

Background The rapid burgeoning of available protein data makes the use of clustering
within families of proteins increasingly important. The challenge is to identify subfamilies of …

β-mannanase SACTE_2347 from cellulolytic Streptomyces sp. SirexAA-E is abundantly
secreted into the culture medium during growth on cellulosic materials. The enzyme is …

Endo-β-mannosidase, which hydrolyses the Manβ1-4GlcNAc linkage of N-glycans in an
endo-manner, was discovered in plants. During the course of the purification of the enzyme …

In the present study, out of three isoforms of α-mannosidase identified in the crude extract of
defatted Custard apple seed powder, isoform III has been purified to homogeneity by two …

Plant complex-type N-glycans are characterized by the presence of α1, 3-linked fucose
towards the proximal N-acetylglucosamine residue and β1, 2-linked xylose towards the β …

Boron (B) is essential for the normal growth and development of oilseed rape. To gain better
insight into the metabolic processes of Brassica napus in response to B starvation, a time …
