... to be essential for iron binding. These results suggest that the metalloenzyme αGluFa is a new member of the glycosyl hydrolase family that uses a novel mechanism for sugar glycosylation and/or transglycosylation. 1 These authors have contributed equally to this work. The transglycosylation assay...

... chitin chitinase Family 18 glycosidase mechanism glycosyl hydrolase Abbreviations used: ChiA, chitinase A; FAB, fast atom bombardment; GlcNAc, N -acetyl- d -glucosamine; N5, chitopentaose; WT, wild-type. Biochem. J. (2003) 376, 87 95 (Printed in Great Britain) 87 Family 18 chitinase...

... by reverse-transcription PCR using primers based on Edman degradation fragments. Northern blot and in situ hybridization analyses showed that Lma-p72 was expressed in the tergal and sternal glands. Sequence alignment indicates that Lma-p72 is closely related to the family 1 glycosyl hydrolases (EC 3.2.1...

... xylanase. This report describes the first isolation of a xylanase inhibitor from any organism. Key words: arabinoxylan, glycosyl hydrolase, protein protein interaction, Triticum aestiŠum, xylanase inhibitor. supernatant was collected. The pH of the solution was adjusted to 7.0 and 10 g of carboxymethyl (CM...
