Plant-polysaccharide-degrading enzymes from Basidiomycetes.
SUMMARY Basidiomycete fungi subsist on various types of plant material in diverse environments, from living and dead trees and forest litter to crops and grasses and to decaying plant matter in soils. Due to the variation in their natural carbon sources, basidiomycetes have highly varied plant-polysaccharide-degrading capabilities. This topic is not as well studied for basidiomycetes as for asc...
متن کاملApproaches to Dispersing Medical Biofilms
Biofilm-associated infections pose a complex problem to the medical community, in that residence within the protection of a biofilm affords pathogens greatly increased tolerances to antibiotics and antimicrobials, as well as protection from the host immune response. This results in highly recalcitrant, chronic infections and high rates of morbidity and mortality. Since as much as 80% of human b...
متن کاملPost - ruminal supplementation of ex - ogenous polysaccharide - degrading enzymes
polysaccharidase activity of duodenal digesta [1]. In theory, increased levels of PDE in the intestine of ruminants could affect digestibility and nutrient absorption. To test this possibility, an incomplete Latin square experiment with four heifers (469±6.Okg) and three treatments was conducted. Control (C) no enzyme addition; PDE-treated feed (EF) 48.Og PDE head&dquo; day’’ (1:1 mixture of a ...
متن کاملDispersal of Biofilms by Secreted, Matrix Degrading, Bacterial DNase
Microbial biofilms are composed of a hydrated matrix of biopolymers including polypeptides, polysaccharides and nucleic acids and act as a protective barrier and microenvironment for the inhabiting microbes. While studying marine biofilms, we observed that supernatant produced by a marine isolate of Bacillus licheniformis was capable of dispersing bacterial biofilms. We investigated the source ...
متن کاملEffect of polysaccharide admixtures on expression of multiple polysaccharide-degrading enzymes in Microbulbifer strain CMC-5
Microbulbifer strain CMC-5 produces agarase, alginate lyase, xylanase, carboxymethyl cellulase and carrageenase. The extracellular production of the above carbohydrases was investigated by growing Microbulbifer strain CMC-5 in a sea water based medium containing homologous/heterologous polysaccharides as a single substrate or as a combination of mixed assorted substrate. Presence of singular ho...
