1. Transglycosylation by Glycoside Hydrolases - Production and modification of alkyl glycosides
Sammanfattning : To enable the transition to a green, bio-based economy, an extensive enzymatic toolbox competitive to traditional chemical procedures is needed. One strong area for enzymes is carbohydrate chemistry, due to the over-functionalized nature of carbohydrates, difficult to handle in traditional chemistry. LÄS MER
2. Novel Retaining Glycoside Hydrolases : Potential candidates for transglycosylation and hydrolysis
Sammanfattning : Our society is moving towards renewable resources, where biomass, rich incarbohydrates, is producing chemicals and fuel. However, there are severallimitations when it comes to valorisation of the carbohydrates from renewablebiomass. LÄS MER
3. Degradation of wood polysaccharides by fungal glycoside hydrolases
Sammanfattning : The enzymatic degradation of wood polysaccharides such as cellulose and hemicellulose is an important process in nature. In addition, cellulases and hemicellulases can be used in industrial applications. Fuel ethanol can potentially be produced from wood by enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose followed by yeast fermentation of the formed sugars. LÄS MER
4. Exploring thermostable glycoside hydrolases: Amylases and beta-glucosidases
Sammanfattning : Two putative cyclodextrinases (CDases) were amplified from two moderate thermophiles isolated in Iceland: Anoxybacillus flavithermus and Laceyella sacchari. They were cloned, expressed and characterized. The expression of the former was optimized in E. LÄS MER
5. Enzymatic Synthesis of Alkyl Glycosides. New Applications for Glycoside Hydrolases
Sammanfattning : The environmental problems caused by human interventions, such as the consumption of non-renewable resources and the emission of greenhouse gases are well-recognised. Calls have been made for immediate measures to develop more sustainable society worldwide. LÄS MER
