Investigation of Bacterial Cellulose Biosynthesis Mechanism in Gluconoacetobacter hansenii
The present study explores the mechanism of cellulose biosynthesis in Gluconoacetobacter hansenii. The cellulose synthase enzyme was purified as membrane fraction and solubilized by treatment with 0.1% digitonin. The enzyme was separated by native-gel electrophoresis and β -D-glucan analysis was carried out using in vitro gel assay. The cellulose synthase has glycoprotein nature and composed tw...
متن کاملRecombinant biosynthesis of bacterial cellulose in genetically modified Escherichia coli
Bacterial cellulose (BC) exhibits unique properties such as high purity compared to plant-based cellulose; however, commercial production of BC has remained a challenge, primarily due to the strain properties of cellulose-producing bacteria. Herein, we developed a functional and stable BC production system in genetically modified (GM) Escherichia coli by recombinant expression of both the BC sy...
متن کاملIn-situ glyoxalization during biosynthesis of bacterial cellulose.
A novel method to synthesize highly crosslinked bacterial cellulose (BC) is reported. The glyoxalization is started in-situ, in the culture medium during biosynthesis of cellulose by Gluconacetobacter medellensis bacteria. Strong crosslinked networks were formed in the contact areas between extruded cellulose ribbons by reaction with the glyoxal precursors. The crystalline structure of cellulos...
متن کاملCellulose structure and biosynthesis *
Carbohydrate researchers may think it is reasonable to believe that the synthesis and structure of a crystalline b-1,4 glucan would be quite straightforward; however, this is not the case. The pitfalls and detours of research have been counterbalanced by exciting new discoveries in cellulose structure, biosynthesis, and molecular biology. Cellulose exists in crystalline and noncrystalline state...
متن کاملThe Potentials and Applications of Cellulose Acetate in biosensor technology
The interest in cellulose and its derivatives has been exponentially increasing due to its excellent thermal stability, biocompatibility, chemical persistence and biodegradability. Among various cellulose derivatives, cellulose acetate (CA) has been applied in many applications including sensor systems, drug delivery systems, separation membrane, and tissue engineering. Recently, the electrospu...
