TL;DR
HPLC and ESI-MS analysis indicated that Cel2C can degrade laminarin and β-glucan into oligosaccharides with degrees of polymerization (DPs) of 1-7, and highlight the potential application of Cel2C as an endo-β-1, 3-glucanase in the biorefinery of laminarin biomass in related industries.
β-1,3-Glucans are structurally diverse polysaccharides widely distributed in marine algae, fungi, and plants, and their enzymatic depolymerization is important for carbon turnover, biomass processing, and polysaccharide valorization. β-1,3-Glucanases are diverse glycoside hydrolases (GHs) that cleave β-1,3-glycosidic l...

Mannans are abundant plant hemicelluloses, and endo-β-mannanases are important biocatalysts for their conversion into functional manno-oligosaccharides. Here, we report the structural and functional characterization of a glycoside hydrolase family 134 β-mannanase from Aspergillus nidulans (AnGH134) and a structure-guid...

β-Glucosidases (βGLs) play important roles in plant secondary metabolism by hydrolyzing glycosylated compounds involved in defense, signaling, and the formation of bioactive and flavor-related metabolites. In this study, a β-glucosidase from Fragaria × ananassa (Fra-βGL; FxaC_10g48920.t1) was identified and biochemical...

The hydrolytic breakdown of cellobiose into glucose, catalyzed by β-glucosidases, is the last and rate-limiting step in cellulose saccharification for producing fermentable glucose in the bioethanol industry. This limitation arises because β-glucosidase activity is inhibited by factors such as temperature, pH, and gluc...
