TLDR
Analysis of the oligosaccharides generated by endo-(1-->4)-beta-mannanase digestion confirmed that the GGM comprises a backbone of predominantly alternating 4- and 4,6-Manp, 4-Glcp, terminal Galp and 2-Galp, small amounts and terminal Arap and terminal Xylp, and approximately 0.03 mol acetyl per mol of glucosyl residue.About:

Hemicelluloses for fuel ethanol: A review.
Francisco M. Gírio,César Fonseca,Florbela Carvalheiro,Luís C. Duarte,Susana Marques,Rafał Bogel-Łukasik +5 more
TL;DR: The various hemicelluloses structures present in lignocellulose, the range of pre-treatment and hydrolysis options including the enzymatic ones, and the role of different microbial strains on process integration aiming to reach a meaningful consolidated bioprocessing are reviewed.

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
Determining the polysaccharide composition of plant cell walls
TL;DR: Analysis time will vary depending on both the method used and the tissue type, and ranges from 2 d for a simple neutral sugar composition to 2 weeks for a carboxyl reduction/methylation linkage analysis.

Fungal enzyme sets for plant polysaccharide degradation
TL;DR: This mini-review will discuss the enzymes needed for complete degradation of plant polysaccharides and will give an overview of the latest developments concerning fungal carbohydrate-active enzymes and their corresponding families.

The MUR3 Gene of Arabidopsis Encodes a Xyloglucan Galactosyltransferase That Is Evolutionarily Related to Animal Exostosins
Michael Madson,Christophe Dunand,Xuemei Li,Rajeev Verma,Gary Vanzin,Jeffrey L. Caplan,Douglas A. Shoue,Nicholas C. Carpita,Wolf-Dieter Reiter +8 more
TL;DR: This finding suggests that components of the plant cell wall and of the animal extracellular matrix are synthesized by evolutionarily related enzymes even though the structures of the corresponding polysaccharides are entirely different from each other.
