Endoglucanases: insights into thermostability for biofuel applications
Obtaining bioethanol from cellulosic biomass involves numerous steps, among which the enzymatic conversion of the polymer to individual sugar units has been a main focus of the biotechnology industry. Among the cellulases that break down the polymeric cellulose are endoglucanases that act synergistically for subsequent hydrolytic reactions. The endoglucanases that have garnered relatively more ...
متن کاملSpecific characteristics of family 45 endoglucanases from Mucorales in the use of textiles and laundry.
We examined the characteristics of family 45 endoglucanases (glycoside hydrolases family 45; GH45) from Mucorales belonging to Zygomycota in the use of textiles and laundry. The defibrillation activities on lyocell fabric of family 45 endoglucanases from Mucorales, such as RCE1 and RCE2 from Rhizopus oryzae, MCE1 and MCE2 from Mucor circinelloides, and PCE1 from Phycomyces nitens, were much hig...
متن کاملVirus-specific thermostability and heat inactivation profiles of alphaviruses.
Serological diagnosis is a critical component for disease surveillance and is important to address the increase in incidence and disease burden of alphaviruses, such as the chikungunya (CHIKV) and Ross River (RRV) viruses. The gold standard for serological diagnosis is the plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT), which demonstrates the neutralizing capacity of serum samples after the remova...
متن کاملSexual isolation in Acinetobacter baylyi is locus-specific and varies 10,000-fold over the genome.
Naturally transformable bacteria acquire chromosomal DNA from related species at lower frequencies than from cognate DNA sources. To determine how genome location affects heterogamic transformation in bacteria, we inserted an nptI marker into random chromosome locations in 19 different strains of the Acinetobacter genus (>24% divergent at the mutS/trpE loci). DNA from a total of 95 nptI-tagged ...
متن کاملFold-specific substitution matrices for protein classification
MOTIVATION Methods that focus on secondary structures, such as Position Specific Scoring Matrices and Hidden Markov Models, have proved useful for assigning proteins to families. However, for assigning proteins to an attribute class within a family these methods may introduce more free parameters than are needed. There are fewer members and there is less variability among sequences within a fam...
