Purification and characterization of cutinase from a fluorescent Pseudomonas putida bacterial strain isolated from phyllosphere.

TLDR
Cutinase, an extracellular enzyme, was induced by cutin in a fluorescent Pseudomonas putida strain that was found to be cohabiting with an apparently nitrogen-fixing Corynebacterium, suggesting that bacterial cutinase is an "active serine" enzyme.

Microbial Ecology and Physiology of Feed Degradation within the Rumen

TL;DR: Manipulation of feed materials is likely to control the rate of digestion in ruminants and the long-term control of this process will proceed from genetic engineering based on the emerging understanding of the molecular mechanisms of bacterial adhesion and specific enzyme activities.
