Significats de glycoside hydrolase en anglès

Annotated metagenomic data suggested diverse glycoside hydrolase gene representation within the pooled heavy DNA.

Supernatants from both cultures possessed comparable glycoside hydrolase activities when incubated with artificial biomass substrates.

Bacteria modulate glycoside hydrolase expression in response to the changes in the composition of lignocellulosic biomass.

This enzyme is particularly interesting, because it shows no significant sequence similarity to any known glycoside hydrolase.

A new clan that links glycoside hydrolase families 28 and 49 is suggested.

Incubation of the switchgrass-adapted consortia with these alternative substrates produced shifts in glycoside hydrolase activities and bacterial community composition.

These results demonstrate that the composition of biomass substrates influences the glycoside hydrolase activities and community composition of biomass-deconstructing bacterial consortia.

Inclusion of simple organic substrates in the culture medium abrogated glycoside hydrolase activity and enriched for bacteria related to Thermus thermophilus.

Results: Each consists of 2 enzyme domains of the glycoside hydrolase family GH31 classification, yet with somewhat differing enzymatic properties.

Conclusions: This work provides the foundation for further comparative and functional analyses of plant glycoside hydrolases.

Sequence analysis reveals approximately 130 predicted glycoside hydrolases that target the major structural and storage plant polysaccharides.

The major advance of our study was the discovery of active-yet-uncultivated soil microorganisms and enrichment of their glycoside hydrolases.

Genes encoding glycoside hydrolases are found in a wide range of organisms, from archea to animals, and are relatively abundant in plant genomes.

Evaluating these enzymes as potential therapeutics, we demonstrate that these glycoside hydrolases selectively target and degrade the exopolysaccharide component of the biofilm matrix.

These findings suggest that glycoside hydrolases can exhibit activity against diverse microorganisms and may be useful as therapeutic agents by degrading biofilms and attenuating virulence.
