1. 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
2. Exploring glycoside hydrolase family 5 (GH5) enzymes
Sammanfattning : In 1990, the classification of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) was introduced by the scientist Bernard Henrissat. According to sequence similarity, these enzymes were separated into families with conserved structures and reaction mechanisms. 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. 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
