To elucidate the influence of wood polysaccharide components on lignin formation in vitro, models for polysaccharide matrix in wood secondary cell wall were fabricated from two types of bacterial cellulosic films, flat film (FBC) and honeycomb-patterned film (HPBC), as basic frameworks by depositing xylan onto the films. An endwise type of dehydrogenative polymerization, "Zutropfverfahren", of coniferyl alcohol was attempted in the films with/without xylan. The resultant dehydrogenation polymer (DHP) was generated inside and outside xylan-deposited films, whereas DHP was deposited only outside the films without xylan. The amount of the generated DHP in the xylan-deposited films was larger than that in the films without xylan. The frequency of 8-O-4' interunitary linkage in DHP was also increased by the xylan deposition. These results suggest that xylan acts as a scaffold for DHP deposition in polysaccharides matrix and as a structure regulator for the formation of the 8-O-4' linkage. In addition, mechanical properties, i.e., tensile strength and modulus of elasticity (MOE), of both cellulosic films were found to be augmented by the deposition of xylan and DHP. Especially, DHP deposition remarkably enhanced MOE. Such effects of xylan on DHP formation and augmentation of mechanical strength were clearly observed for HPBC, revealing that HPBC is a promising framework model to investigate wood cell wall formation in vitro.

Antarctic snow harbors diverse microorganisms, including pigmented algae and bacteria, which create colored snow patches and influence global climate and biogeochemical cycles. However, the genomic diversity and metabolic potential of colored snow remain poorly understood. We conducted a genome-resolved study of microbiomes in colored snow from 13 patches (7 green and 6 red) on the Fildes Peninsula, Antarctica.

Xylooligosaccharides (XOS), consisting 2-6 xylose residues, are a new type of prebiotic and functional oligosaccharides, and can usually be produced from the xylan-riched lignocellulosic biomass by acetic acid (HAc) hydrolysis, while the waste HAc was a problem to the environment. In this study, the main aim was to recover and reuse the waste HAc in XOS production. First, it was found that a temperature of 190 °C and a hydrolysis time of 60 min were favorable for XOS production by HAc hydrolysis, and the by-products xylose and furfural were the main inhibitors, hindering the reuse of the waste HAc.

Carnivorous plants have fascinated botanists and ecologists with their various unusual adaptations in organ structure, physiology, and complex interactions with other organisms since the time of Charles Darwin. Species of the genus (bladderworts, family Lentibulariaceae) are carnivorous plants that prey mainly on invertebrates using traps (bladders) of leaf origin. In the traps, there are glandular trichomes called quadrifids, which produce digestive enzymes and absorb the products of prey digestion.

Celery () can be considered as a model plant for studying pectin-enriched primary cell walls. In addition to parenchyma cells with xyloglucan-deficient walls, celery petioles contain collenchyma, a mechanical tissue with thickened cell walls of similar composition. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of these tissues at both early and late developmental stages, integrating data on polysaccharide yield, composition, localization, and transcriptome analysis.

The basidiomycete strain LE-BIN1700 (Agaricales, ) is able to grow on agar media supplemented with individual components of lignocellulose such as lignin, cellulose, xylan, xyloglucan, arabinoxylan, starch and pectin, and also to effectively destroy and digest birch, alder and pine sawdust. produces a unique repertoire of proteins for the saccharification of the plant biomass, including predominantly oxidative enzymes such as laccases (family AA1_1 CAZymes), GMC oxidoreductases (family AA3_2 CAZymes), FAD-oligosaccharide oxidase (family AA7 CAZymes) and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (family LPMO X325), as well as accompanying acetyl esterases and loosenine-like expansins. Metabolomic analysis revealed that, specifically, monosaccharides and carboxylic acids were the key low molecular metabolites in the culture liquids in the experimental conditions.
