All possible di-O-acetates and mono-O-acetates of p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-arabinofuranoside were prepared by chemoenzymatic way using lipases. The 2,3-di-O-acetate was obtained in 90% yield by deacetylation of the primary acetyl group of per-O-acetylated p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-arabinofuranoside by Candida cylindracea lipase (CCL) or Candida rugosa lipase (LAY). The 2,5- and 3,5-di-O-acetates were obtained by acetylation of p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-arabinofuranoside by Pseudomonas cepacia lipase (LPS-30) in organic solvents. The 5-O-acetate was regioselectively synthesised in 95% yield by acetylation of p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-arabinofuranoside catalysed by porcine pancreas lipase. Finally, the 2- and 3-O-acetates of p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-arabinofuranoside were obtained in two steps. The enzymatic di-O-acetylation of p-nitrophenyl alpha-L-arabinofuranoside by LPS-30 was followed by enzymatic hydrolysis of the primary acetyl group by CCL or LAY.

Human consumption of larch arabinogalactan has a significant effect on enhancing probiotic microflora in the gut, and it also promotes the production of short-chain fatty acids. Bacterial members of Lachnospiraceae family are important and play significant roles in maintaining our gut health. However, it is less known about biochemistry of members of this family by which they utilize non-cellulosic fiber in the gut.

strain TW1, a gram-positive facultative anaerobic bacterium, was isolated as a xylanolytic microorganism from the wastes of a pineapple processing factory. A gene encoding one of its xylanolytic enzymes, a β-xylosidase, was cloned and sequenced. Sequence analysis revealed that this β-xylosidase, named Xyl43A, was composed of a glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 43 subfamily 12 catalytic module and an unknown function module (UM).

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is defined as the acquisition by an organism of hereditary material from a phylogenetically unrelated organism. This process is mostly observed among bacteria and archaea, and considered less likely between microbes and multicellular eukaryotes. However, recent studies provide compelling evidence of the evolutionary importance of HGT in eukaryotes, driving functional innovation.

α-l-Arabinofuranosidase (Abf), a debranching enzyme that can remove arabinose substituents from arabinoxylan, promotes the hydrolysis of hemicellulose in plant biomass. However, the functional specificity of Abfs from different glycoside hydrolase (GH) families on the digestion of arabinoxylan and their synergistic interaction with xylanase have not been systematically studied. In this work, we characterized three Abfs (AxhA, AbfB, and AbfC) from GH62, GH54, and GH51 families in An76.
