The cleaved-off different short molecules may undergo complete hydrolysis: ① acetyl xylan esterase removes the terminal acetate residues by break the ester linkage, α-D-glucuronidase attacks the α-1,2-glycosidic bond and releases the glucuronic acid side chain, and β-xylosidase hydrolyzes the ...
β-Glucosidases are a class of enzymes (EC: 3.2.1.21) that can hydrolyze the terminal, nonreducing β-D-glucosyl residues by hydrolyzing the β-1,4 glycosidic bond of various glycoconjugates including glucosides, oligosaccharides, and 1-O-glucosyl esters, to form glucose. ...
In particular, multiple α- and β-glucans like cellulose, dextran, curdlan and cyclic α- and β-glucan, among others, have been produced in bacteria [2]. Compared to other polysaccharides, CβG have the advantage of not requiring a primer or acceptor substrate for its synthesis since Cgs...
Mechanistic insights into glycosidic bond activation in cellulose pyrolysis were obtained via first-principles density functional theory calculations that explain the peculiar similarity in kinetics for different stereochemical glycosidic bonds (beta vs alpha) and establish the role of the three-dimensional ...
Cellulose is composed of β-D-glucan units linked by (1→4)glycosidic bondsthat are formed by a simple polymerization of glucose residues from a substrate such as UDP-glucose (O'Sullivan, 1997;Delmer and Amor, 1995). The stereochemistry conferred by the glycosidic linkage creates a linear exte...

(2007; 2009) purified two XET isoenzymes from extracts of barley seedlings to a near monodisperse form and showed that the barley HvXET5 and HvXET6 enzymes catalyse the in vitro formation of covalent linkages between xyloglucan oligosaccharide acceptors and celluloses, and between xyloglucan ...

. Chitin, the second most abundant natural polymer, after cellulose, is a linear polysaccharide of GlcNAc linked by β-1,4-glycosidic bonds (Lv et al. Highly efficient and selective biocatalytic production of glucosamine from chitin. Green Chem., 2017, 19, 527-535). The degradation products o...
The term “cellulase” refers to a category of enzymes capable of hydrolyzing cellulose (β-1,4-glucan or β-D-glucosidic linkages) to shorter oligosaccharides, cellobiose and/or glucose. Cellulases include 1,4-β-D-glucan glucanohydrolase (“endoglucanase” or “EG”); 1,4-β-D-glucan ce...
