Application

Cellotriose, a 3-glucose cellulodextrin derived from cellulose degradation similar to cellulobiose (2-glucose), cellulotetralose (4-glucose), and cellulopentaose (5-glucose), is used by cellulosic bacteria as sources of energy. It may be used to help identify, differentiate and characterize oligosaccharide metabolizing enzymes such as endoglucanases and β-glucosidase(s). Cellotriose may be used in saccharification and ethanol fermentation research.

A 160 kDa enzyme with beta-glucosidase activity was purified from the midgut gland of the land crab Gecarcoidea natalis. The enzyme was capable of releasing glucose progressively from cellobiose, cellotriose or cellotetraose. Although beta-glucosidases (EC 3.2.1.21) have some activity towards

The activation of calcium signaling is a crucial event for perceiving environmental stress. Colonization by Piriformospora indica, a growth-promoting root endosymbiont, activates cytosolic Ca2+ in Arabidopsis roots. In this study, we examined the role and functional relevance of calcium channels

Although many endo-ß-1,4-glucanases have been isolated in invertebrates, their cellulolytic systems are not fully understood. In particular, gastropod feeding on seaweed is considered an excellent model system for production of bioethanol and renewable bioenergy from third-generation feedstocks (microalgae and seaweeds).
