International audience. We report here the development of a straightforward, sensitive, and quantitative NMR-based method for high-throughput characterization of carbohydrate structure and screening of carbohydrate active enzyme (CAZyme) specificity. Automated assays starting from gene library expression to carbohydrate structure determination directly from crude reaction media have been established and successfully used to screen a library of 4032 CAZymes obtained by combinatorial engineering, at a rate of 480 enzyme variants per day. This allowed one to accurately discriminate 303 enzyme variants with altered specificity. The results demonstrate the potential of high-throughput NMR technology in novel biocatalysts in glycomics, to mine artificial and natural enzyme diversity for

We used combinatorial engineering to investigate the relationships between structure and linkage specificity of the dextransucrase DSR-S from Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL B-512F, and to generate variants with altered specificity...

Structural Investigation of the Thermostability and Product Specificity of Amylosucrase from the Bacterium Deinococcus geothermalis

Archive ouverte | Guerin, Frédéric | CCSD

Amylosucrases are sucrose-utilizing alpha-transglucosidases that naturally catalyze the synthesis of alpha-glucans, linked exclusively through alpha 1,4-linkages. Side products and in particular sucrose isomers such as turanose an...

Functional metagenomics reveals novel pathways of prebiotic breakdown by human gut bacteria
