Biochemical Characterization of Recombinant Thermostable Cohnella sp. A01 β-Glucanase
Background: Typically, non-cellulytic glucanase, including fungi and yeast cell wall hydrolyzing enzymes, are released by some symbiotic fungi and plants during the mycoparasitic fungi attack on plants. These enzymes are known as the defense mechanisms of plants. This study intends to investigate the biochemical properties of β-1,6-glucanase (bg16M) from native thermophilic bacteria, Cohne...
متن کاملCrystal structure of endo-1,4-β-glucanase from Eisenia fetida
The saccharification process is essential for bioethanol production from woody biomass including celluloses. Cold-adapted cellulase, which has sufficient activity at low temperature (<293 K), is capable of reducing heating costs during the saccharification process and is suitable for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation. Endo-1,4-β-glucanase from the earthworm Eisenia fetida (EF-EG2) ...
متن کاملConserved Cys residue influences catalytic properties of potato endo-(13)-β-glucanase GLUB20-2
The synthesis and degradation of (13)-β-glycosidic bonds between glucose moieties are essential metabolic processes in plant cell architecture and function. We have found that a unique, conserved cysteine residue, positioned outside the catalytic centre of potato endo-(13)-β-glucanase — product of the gluB20-2 gene, participates in determining the substrate specificity of the enzyme. The same...
متن کاملMicroplate Diffusion Assay for Screening of β-Glucanase-Producing Microorganisms
A method is described to screen fungal strains rapidly for overexpression of extracellular β-1,4-endoglucanase in the presence of high levels of sugar compounds. The semi-quantitative assay utilizes microplates in a 96-well format and an azurine dye covalently cross-linked (AZCL) chromogenic substrate. The digestion of AZCL-hydroxyethyl-β-1,4-endoglucanase results in the release of a blue dye d...
متن کاملThe Eng1 β-Glucanase Enhances Histoplasma Virulence by Reducing β-Glucan Exposure.
UNLABELLED The fungal pathogen Histoplasma capsulatum parasitizes host phagocytes. To avoid antimicrobial immune responses, Histoplasma yeasts must minimize their detection by host receptors while simultaneously interacting with the phagocyte. Pathogenic Histoplasma yeast cells, but not avirulent mycelial cells, secrete the Eng1 protein, which is a member of the glycosylhydrolase 81 (GH81) fami...
