The 1,4-β-D-glucan glucanohydrolases from Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Re-assessment of their significance in cellulose degradation mechanisms
TLDR
Strong synergistic action is induced by the enzymes acting in concert with cellobiohydrolases (CBHI and CBHII) from the same organism, indicating a highly effective enzymatic system for cellulose degradation.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of cellulose by basidiomycetous fungi.
Petr Baldrian,Vendula Valášková +1 more
TL;DR: The efficiency and regulation of cellulose degradation differs among wood-rotting, litter-decomposing, mycorrhizal or plant pathogenic fungi and yeasts due to the different roles of cellulOSE degradation in the physiology and ecology of the individual groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial hydrolysis of polysaccharides.
TL;DR: In general, the systems produced by different microorganisms for the hydrolysis of a particular polysaccharide comprise similar enzymes from the same families, which are complex on two quite different levels.

Plant-Polysaccharide-Degrading Enzymes from Basidiomycetes
Johanna Rytioja,Kristiina Hildén,Jennifer Yuzon,Annele Hatakka,Ronald P. de Vries,Miia R. Mäkelä +5 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge on plant polysaccharide depolymerization by basidiomycete species from diverse habitats and compares these data to those for the most broadly studied ascomycete genus, Aspergillus, to provide insight into specific features of basidiaomycetes with respect to plant poly Saccharide degradation.

Comparative Transcriptome and Secretome Analysis of Wood Decay Fungi Postia placenta and Phanerochaete chrysosporium

TL;DR: The two species display distinct expression patterns for oxidoreductase-encoding genes that are consistent with an extracellular Fenton system and include the upregulation of genes involved in iron acquisition, in the synthesis of low-molecular-weight quinones, and possibly in redox cycling reactions.

Fungal Biodegradation of Lignocelluloses
Annele Hatakka,Kenneth E. Hammel +1 more
TL;DR: Many fungi degrade cellulose and hemicelluloses using extracellular hydrolytic enzymes, but fungi that degrade woody biomass are the only ones to efficiently degrade polysaccharides encased in lignin.

A photometric adaptation of the somogyi method for the determination of glucose
TL;DR: In this paper, the reliability of the various Somogyi-Shaffer-Hartmann (SHH) copper reagents for glucose determination in biological material has been established, which can be accomplished by omission of the iodide and iodate in their preparation, since these interfere with the molybdate color reagents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence from picomole quantities of proteins electroblotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes.
TL;DR: Small amounts of myoglobin, beta-lactoglobulin, and other proteins and peptides can be spotted or electroblotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes, stained with Coomassie Blue, and sequenced directly, suggesting that PVDF membranes are superior supports for sequence analysis of picomole quantities of proteins purified by gel electrophoresis.

A gas-liquid solid phase peptide and protein sequenator.
TL;DR: A new miniaturized protein and peptide sequenator has been constructed which uses gas phase reagents at the coupling and cleavage steps of the Edman degradation, characterized by a high repetitive yield during the degradation, low reagent consumption, low maintenance requirements, and a degradative cycle time of only 50 min using a complete double cleavage program.
