Identification of a Pivotal Residue for Determining the Block Structure-Forming Properties of Alginate C-5 Epimerases
Stanisci, Annalucia; Tøndervik, Anne; Gaardløs, Margrethe; Lervik, Anders; Skjåk-Bræk, Gudmund; Sletta, Håvard; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Alginate is a linear copolymer composed of 1→4 linked β-d-mannuronic acid (M) and its epimer α-l-guluronic acid (G). The polysaccharide is first produced as homopolymeric mannuronan and subsequently, at the polymer level, ... -
Overall size of mannuronan C5-Epimerases influences their ability to epimerize modified alginates and alginate gels
Stanisci, Annalucia; Aarstad, Olav Andreas; Tøndervik, Anne; Sletta, Håvard; Dypås, Lene Brattsti; Skjåk-Bræk, Gudmund; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)A family of seven mannuronan C5-epimerases (AlgE1-AlgE7) produced by Azotobacter vinelandii is able to convert β-d-mannuronate (M) to its epimer α-l-guluronate (G) in alginates. Even sharing high sequence homology at the ...
