New Bacterial Carbohydrate Oxidases: Structure-Function Insights and Biotechnological Applications
| Resumo: | "Plant biomass is an abundant and renewable source of carbohydrates which act as substrates for microbial growth and ecosystem transformation. To access and modify these complex molecules, microorganisms have evolved specialized enzymatic systems, such as carbohydrate oxidases, capable of highly specific and selective reactions. These oxidoreductases promote the regioselective oxidation of hydroxyl groups, utilizing molecular oxygen as an electron acceptor, and produce hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct.(...)" |
