A novel thermostable α-1,3-glucanase from <i>Streptomyces thermodiastaticus</i> HF 3-3

Thermostable α-amylase from Lignocellulosic Residues Using Bacillus amyloliquefaciens

Purification and Characterization of a Novel Thermostable and Acid Stable α-Amylase from Bacillus Sp. Iranian S1

This study reports the purification and biochemical characterization of thermostable and acidic-pH-stable α-amylase from Bacillus sp. Iranian S1 isolated from the desert soil (Gandom-e-Beryan in Lut desert, Iran). Amylase production was found to be growth associated. Maximum enzyme production was in exponential phase with activity 2.93 U ml-1 at 50°C and pH 5. The enzyme was purified by isoprop...

Preparation and characterization of a novel nanobody against T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin-3 (TIM-3)

Objective(s): As T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) is an immune regulatory molecule; its blocking or stimulating could alter the pattern of immune response towards a desired condition. Based on the unique features of nanobodies, we aimed to construct an anti-TIM-3 nanobody as an appropriate tool for manipulating immune responses for future therapeutic purposes. Materials and Meth...

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 &beta;-1,6-glucanase (bg16M) from native thermophilic bacteria, Cohne...
