Discovery and characterization of cadherin domains in Saccharophagus degradans 2-40.
Saccharophagus degradans strain 2-40 is a prominent member of newly discovered group of marine and estuarine bacteria that recycle complex polysaccharides. The S. degradans 2-40 genome codes for 15 extraordinary long polypeptides, ranging from 274 to 1,600 kDa. Five of these contain at least 52 cadherin (CA) and cadherin-like (CADG) domains, the types of which were reported to bind calcium ions...
متن کاملCadherin domains in the polysaccharide-degrading marine bacterium Saccharophagus degradans 2-40 are carbohydrate-binding modules.
The complex polysaccharide-degrading marine bacterium Saccharophagus degradans strain 2-40 produces putative proteins that contain numerous cadherin and cadherin-like domains involved in intercellular contact interactions. The current study reveals that both domain types exhibit reversible calcium-dependent binding to different complex polysaccharides which serve as growth substrates for the ba...
متن کاملGenomic and proteomic analyses of the agarolytic system expressed by Saccharophagus degradans 2-40.
Saccharophagus degradans 2-40 (formerly Microbulbifer degradans 2-40) is a marine gamma-subgroup proteobacterium capable of degrading many complex polysaccharides, such as agar. While several agarolytic systems have been characterized biochemically, the genetics of agarolytic systems have been only partially determined. By use of genomic, proteomic, and genetic approaches, the components of the...
متن کاملCrystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of neoagarobiose hydrolase from Saccharophagus degradans 2-40.
Many agarolytic bacteria degrade agar polysaccharide into the disaccharide unit neoagarobiose [O-3,6-anhydro-alpha-L-galactopyranosyl-(1-->3)-D-galactose] using various beta-agarases. Neoagarobiose hydrolase is an enzyme that acts on the alpha-1,3 linkage in neoagarobiose to yield D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose. This activity is essential in both the metabolism of agar by agarolytic ba...
متن کاملGlobal metabolite profiling of agarose degradation by Saccharophagus degradans 2-40.
Saccharophagus degradans is a potent degrader of marine and plant cell wall polysaccharides. In particular, it is capable of degrading and metabolizing agarose that is the main component of marine red algae. To understand its degradation and metabolism of agarose along with the agarase expression profile, S. degradans was grown using different carbon sources including galactose, agarose, glucos...
