  1. 1. galactmannan degradation by fungi and gut bacteria : structural enzymology and fine -tuned substrate specifcity

    Författare :Sumitha Krishnaswamyreddy; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :fine-tuned substrate specificity; β-mannanase; β-mannosidases; synergy; α-galactosidases; mannan converison in gut; transglycosylation; polysaccharide utilisation locus; phylogenetic analysis; MALDI-TOF MS;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractThe degradation of plant based β-mannan polysaccharides represents one of the many challenges efficiently tackled by microorganisms living in different habitats. In this thesis, glycoside hydrolases (GHs) involved in mannan degradation from two different organisms, Aspergillus nidulans (paper I and II) and Bacteroides ovatus (paper III and IV) were studied.

  3. 2. Strategies for the Discovery of Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes from Environmental Bacteria

    Författare :Johan Larsbrink; Vincent Bulone; Harry Brumer; Birte Svensson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CAZyme discovery; xyloglucan; polysaccharide-utilisation locus; microbiota; α-xylosidase; GH31; transglucosidase; human gut; SRA - Molekylär biovetenskap; SRA - Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is a comparative study of approaches in discovery of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes). CAZymes synthesise, bind to, and degrade all the multitude of carbohydrates found in nature. LÄS MER
