Application

4-O-Methyl-D-glucurono-D-xylan has been used in a study to assess ecto-glycanases and metabolic stability of the capsule in Cryptococcus neoformans. It has also been used in a study that investigated soluble chromogenic substrates for the assay of xylanases and glucanases.

We have identified a number of ecto-glycanases (glycosylhydrolases) associated with the capsule and/or the cell wall of Cryptococcus neoformans. The enzyme activities detected included alpha-mannosidase, alpha-, and beta -glucosidase, alpha-, and beta-galactosidase, beta-xylosidase, beta-glucuronidase, and endo-beta-1,3-glucanase. Small portions of the

Dicarboxylic acids offer several applications in detergent builder and biopolymer fields. One of these acids, 4-O-methyl d-glucaric acid, could potentially be produced from glucuronoxylans, which are a comparatively underused fraction of wood and agricultural biorefineries. Accordingly, an enzymatic pathway was

New soluble chromogenic substrates were prepared for specific and rapid assays of endo-1,4-beta-xylanases and endo-1,4-beta-glucanases. A soluble beechwood 4-O-methyl-D-glucurono-D-xylan was dyed with Remazol brilliant blue R, and hydroxyethylcellulose was coupled to Ostazin brilliant red H-3B. The assays are based on

A glycosyl hydrolase family 10 endoxylanase from Bacillus sp. HJ14 was grouped in a separated cluster with another six Bacillus endoxylanases which have not been characterized. These Bacillus endoxylanases showed less than 52% amino acid sequence identity with other endoxylanases
