1. Xyloglucan-active enzymes : properties, structures and applications
Sammanfattning : Cellulosabaserade material är världens rikligast förekommande förnyelsebara råvara. Växters cellväggar är naturliga kompositmaterial där den kristallina cellulosan är inbäddad i en väv av hemicellulosa, strukturproteiner och lignin. LÄS MER
2. Cellulose synthases in Populus- identification, expression analyses and in vitro synthesis
Sammanfattning : Cellulose is a biopolymer of great relevance in the plant cell walls, where it constitutes the most important skeletal component. Cellulose is also an important raw material in the pulp- and paper, forest, and textile industries, among others. LÄS MER
3. Synthesis of xyloglucan oligo- and polysaccharides with glycosynthase technology
Sammanfattning : Xyloglucans are polysaccharides found as storage polymers in seeds and tubers, and as cross-linking glycans in the cell wall of plants. Their structure is complex with intricate branching patterns, which contribute to the physical properties of the polysaccharide including its binding to and interaction with other glycans such as cellulose.

4. Production and engineering of a xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase from Populus tremula x tremuloides
Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to develop a production process for the enzyme xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase from Populus tremula x tremuloides (PttXET16-34). The natural transglycosylating activity of this enzyme has previously been employed in a XET-Technology. LÄS MER
5. Functional studies of a membrane-anchored cellulase from poplar
Sammanfattning : Cellulose in particular and wood in general are valuable biomaterials for humanity, and cellulose is now also in the spotlight as a starting material for the production of biofuel. Understanding the processes of wood formation and cellulose biosynthesis could therefore be rewarding, and genomics and proteomics approaches have been initiated to learn more about wood biology.
