TL;DR: In this article, a novel laccase was derived from an edible mushroom Russula virescens by using a protocol that comprised ammonium sulfate saturation, ion-exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl-cellulose, carboxymethyl-cellsulose and quaternary amine-separharose, and finally gel-based protein liquid chromatography.

TL;DR: The PCG has great potential in the feed industries for removal of non-digestible oligosaccharide from legumes and can be exploited commercially for improving the nutritional value of soymilk.

TL;DR: The results showed that the general properties of the enzyme offer potential for use of this α-galactosidase in several production processes, indicating the importance of tryptophan residue(s) at or near the active site.

TL;DR: Investigation by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) demonstrated its ability to hydrolyze raffinose and stachyose, suggesting that PMG can be exploited in degradation of non-digestible oligosaccharides from food and feed industries.

TL;DR: An amylase with a molecular mass of 55 kDa and an N-terminal sequence exhibiting similarity to enzyme from Bacteroides thetaitaomicron was isolated from fruiting bodies of the monkey head mushroom Hericium erinaceum and was enhanced by Mn2+ and Fe3+ ions, but inhibited by Hg2+ ions.
