TLDR
The esterase acted in synergism with other xylanolytic enzymes, which was reflected in increased production of phenolic acids from wheat straw xylo-oligosaccharides in the presence of xylanases of Trichoderma reesei.About:

Aspergillus Enzymes Involved in Degradation of Plant Cell Wall Polysaccharides
Ronald P. de Vries,Jaap Visser +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge of the cell wall polysaccharide-degrading enzymes from aspergilli and the genes by which they are encoded and describes the enzymatic pathways followed by tailored modifications by using specific enzymes purified from these fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exogenous enzymes for pigs and poultry
Michael R. Bedford,H. Schulze +1 more
TL;DR: Improved knowledge of ANF structure will result in development of enzymes directed towards far more specific targets, which enhances the likelihood of success and should reduce the overall enzyme usage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and functions of feruloylated polysaccharides
TL;DR: Cell wall polysaccharides contain a small amount of ester-linked hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives, such as p-coumaric and ferulic acids, which can be coupled oxidatively to form the acid dimers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ferulic acid: an antioxidant found naturally in plant cell walls and feruloyl esterases involved in its release and their applications.
Sindhu Mathew,T. Emilia Abraham +1 more
TL;DR: Ferulic acid obtained from agricultural byproducts is a potential precursor for the production of natural vanillin, due to the lower production cost, and the dehydrodimers of ferulic acid are important structural components in the plant cell wall and serve to enhance its rigidity and strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional classification of the microbial feruloyl esterases
TL;DR: The proposed sub-classification scheme is discussed in terms of the evolutionary relationships existing between carbohydrate esterases, and four sub-classes have been characterised and termed type-A, B, C and D.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent
TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.

Ether linkage between phenolic acids and lignin fractions from wheat straw
Augustin Scalbert,B. Monties,Jean-Yves Lallemand,Jean-Yves Lallemand,Eric Guittet,Eric Guittet,Christian Rolando,Christian Rolando +7 more
TL;DR: Ferulic acid ethers accounted for 1.1% dry wt of alkali extracted lignin and might explain the high solubility of Gramineae lignins in soda.

Occurrence and nature of ferulic acid substitution of cell-wall polysaccharides in graminaceous plants
M.Meryl Smith,Roy D. Hartley +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the cell walls of wheat bran were treated with Oxyporus "cellulase" (a mixture of polysaccharide hydrolases) in order to release compounds containing ferulic acid bound to carbohydrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linkage of p-coumaroyl and feruloyl groups to cell-wall polysaccharides of barley straw
TL;DR: In this article, the cell walls of barley straw were treated with Oxyporus cellulase, which released compounds containing p-coumaroyl and feruloyl groups bound to carbohydrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenolic components of the primary cell wall. Feruloylated disaccharides of D-galactose and L-arabinose from spinach polysaccharide.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the feruloylation of cell-wall polymers is not a random process, but occurs at very specific sites, probably on the arabinogalactan component of pectin.
