Open AccessCharacterization of a novel aspartic protease from Trichoderma asperellum for the preparation of duck blood peptides
A novel aspartic protease gene (TaproA1) from Trichoderma asperellum was successfully expressed in Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris). TaproA1 showed 52.8% amino acid sequence identity with the aspartic prote...

Global transcriptomic analysis of functional oligosaccharide metabolism in Pediococcus pentosaceus
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are important in food fermentation and may enhance overall host health. Previous studies to explore LAB metabolism mainly focused on the genera Lacticaseibacillus and Lactococcus. Pedio...

Biochemical characterization of a novel α-L-fucosidase from Pedobacter sp. and its application in synthesis of 3′-fucosyllactose and 2′-fucosyllactose
Fucosyllactoses have gained much attention owing to their multiple functions, including prebiotic, immune, gut, and cognition benefits. In this study, human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) 2′-fucosyllactose (α-L-Fu...

Metabolic engineering of Clostridium tyrobutyricum for n-butanol production from sugarcane juice
Clostridium tyrobutyricum is a promising organism for butyrate and n-butanol production, but cannot grow on sucrose. Three genes (scrA, scrB, and scrK) involved in the sucrose catabolic p...

Modulating the function of a β-1,3-glucanosyltransferase to that of an endo-β-1,3-glucanase by structure-based protein engineering
A glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 17 β-1,3-glucanosyltransferase (RmBgt17A) from Rhizomucor miehei CAU432 (CGMCC No. 4967) shared very low sequence homology (∼20 % identity) with that of other β-1,3-glucanases, d...

Characterization of two novel family 12 xyloglucanases from the thermophilic Rhizomucor miehei
Two novel glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 12 xyloglucanase genes (designated RmXEG12A and RmXEG12B) were cloned from the thermophilic fungus Rhizomucor miehei. Both genes contained open reading frames of 729 bp e...

High-level expression of a specific β-1,3-1,4-glucanase from the thermophilic fungus Paecilomyces thermophila in Pichia pastoris
In this study, a novel β-1,3-1,4-glucanase gene (designated as PtLic16A) from Paecilomyces thermophila was cloned and sequenced. PtLic16A has an open reading frame of 945 bp, encoding 314 amino acids. The deduced...
