In this paper, an efficient and convenient Fe3O4/PMG/IDA-Ni2+ nanoparticles that applied to purify and immobilize his-tagged β-glucosidase was synthesized, in which, Fe3O4/PMG (poly (N, N'-methylenebisacrylamide-co-glycidyl methacrylate) core/shell microspheres were synthesized firstly using distillation-precipitation polymerization, then iminodiacetic acid (IDA) was used to open epoxy rings on...

β-Glucosidase, which hydrolyzes cellobiose into two glucoses, plays an important role in the process of saccharification of the lignocellulosic biomass. In this study, we optimized the activity of β-glucosidase of brown-rot fungus Fomitopsis pinicola KCTC 6208 using the response surface methodology (RSM) with various concentrations of glucose, yeast extract and ascorbic acid, which are the most...

Background: Zymomonas mobilis is an efficient ethanol fermentation strain, but its narrow substrate range limits its fermentation in lignocellulose hydrolysate. As a potential consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) stain for bioethanol production, the ability of cellulose utilization was necessary. In this study, extracellular expression of β-glucosidase on Z. mobilis was studied as the first step fo...

β-Glucosidase is an important enzyme for production of ethanol from lignocellulose. With hydrolytic activity on cellooligosaccharides, especially cellobiose, β-glucosidase removes product inhibitory effect on cellulases and forms fermentable sugars. In this study, β-glucosidase encoding gene (BGL1) from traditional starter yeast Saccharomycosis fibuligera BMQ908 was cloned and expressed in Pich...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is recognized as a serious global health problem that is characterized by high blood sugar levels. Type 2 DM is more common in diabetic populations. In this type of DM, inhibition of α-glucosidase is a useful treatment to delay the absorption of glucose after meals. As a megabiodiversity country, Indonesia still has a lot of potential unexploited forests to be developed a...

Glucosidase II, an asparagine-linked oligosaccharide processing enzyme, is a resident glycoprotein of the endoplasmic reticulum. In kidney tubular cells, in contrast to previous findings on hepatocytes, we found by light and electron microscopy immunoreactivity for glucosidase II predominantly in post-Golgi apparatus structures. The majority of immunolabel was in endocytotic structures beneath ...

In order to better understand how to prevent enzymatic greenning, it is important to understand  kinetic properties of polyphenol oxidase.  we investigated the effect of SDS on the rate of catechol oxidation by small cherry tomato partial purified PPO. PPO activity increased with increasing SDS concentration. The most effective concentration of SDS was 0.8, 1 and 1.25 mM in according to pH and ...

Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonei are distinguished unambiguously by the combined use of five test characters: nitrate reductase, beta-glucosidase, acid production from fructose, penicillinase, and trehalase. Typically, M. fortuitum was nitrate reductase positive, beta-glucosidase positive; M. chelonei was nitrate reductase negative, beta-glucosidase negative, penicillinase pos...

background: diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease. decreasing postprandial hyperglycemia by retarding glucose absorption through inhibiting carbohydrates digesting enzymes (α-amylase and α-glucosidase) is one of many approaches used for the management of this disease. this study was aimed at evaluating the normoglycaemic potential of helianthus annuus leaf. methods: the effect of the in vitro ...

in an attempt to develop alternative medicine for the treatment of diabetes and related complications, the antidiabetic potential of the fruits of c rataegus pinnatifida was evaluated. the antidiabetic potential of the methanol (meoh) extract as well as different solvent soluble fractions of the fruits of c . pinnatifida was evaluated via α-glucosidase, protein tyrosine phosphatase 1b (ptp1b), ...
