Interest in chitin-degrading enzymes has grown over the years, and microbial chitinases are the most attractive and promising candidates for the control of plant pests (fungi and insects). Currently, there are many studies on chitinases produced by cultivable microorganisms; however, almost none of them have achieved acceptable applicability as a b...

Carbohydrates are structurally and functionally diverse materials including polysaccharides, and marine organisms are known to have many enzymes for the breakdown of complex polysaccharides. Here, we identified an α-l-fucosidase enzyme from the marine bacterium Vibrio sp. strain EJY3 (VejFCD) that has dual α-1,4-glucosidic and β-1,4-galactosidic sp...

The pericarp of longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) is rich in secondary metabolites and typically yellow-brown or gray-yellow in appearance. Here, we obtained a specific longan type, called red pericarp (RP) longan, which has a strong red pericarp. To understand the coloring mechanism of RP longan, metabolome and transcriptome data were used to analy...

Biocontainment systems have been developed to mitigate the concerns regarding biosafety and environmental risk because of the possible escape of genetically modified organisms into the environment following large-scale outdoor cultivation. Here, we present a biocontainment system entailing genetically modified Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942, also...

Stereoselectivity, a distinctive characteristic of lipase (EC 3.1.1.3), refers to the ability to differentiate between enantiomeric positions (sn-1 and sn-3) in triacylglycerol (TAG). This property has been determined based on the time course of enantiomeric excess of diacylglycerol (DAG) considering several consecutive steps of lipase-catalyzed hy...
