As global milk production continues to rise, the disposal of expired milk contributes to environmental pollution and valuable resource wastage. This study presents the development of a novel L-arabinose isomerase, designated BmAIase12, and its applic...
D-Tagatose is a rare sugar of interest as a low-calorie sweetener, and enzymatic isomerization of D-galactose is a practical production route. L-arabinose isomerase (L-AI; EC 5.3.1.4) is a promising catalyst for the above process, but many characteri...
D-tagatose is a rare sugar that occurs naturally and combines high sweetness with a low caloric value. It has several beneficial effects, including anticariogenic activity, modulation of the intestinal microbiota, and potential benefits for diabetes...
D-Tagatose is a low-calorie sugar substitute that has gained increased attention as a functional sweetener owing to its nutraceutical and prebiotic properties. Traditionally, D-tagatose is produced via the enzymatic conversion of L-galactose to D-tag...
L-Arabinose isomerase (L-AI) has been commonly used as an efficient biocatalyst to produce D-tagatose via the isomerization of D-galactose. However, it remains a significant challenge to efficiently synthesize D-tagatose using the native (wild type)...
d-Tagatose, a functional sweetener, is converted from d-galactose by l-arabinose isomerase, which catalyzes the conversion of l-arabinose to l-ribulose. In this study, the araA gene encoding l-arabinose isomerase from Klebsiella pneumoniae was cloned...
D-tagatose is a functional sweetener with glucose-regulating and prebiotic properties, but its bioproduction from D-galactose faces many limitations, particularly the high production costs. In particular, the current biosynthesis of D-tagatose suffer...
D-tagatose, a low-calorie sugar substitute, widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries, can be produced from the substrate D-galactose using L-arabinose isomerase (L-AI). L-AI genes derived from Lactobacillus fermentum (LFAI), Lactobacillu...
l-Arabinose isomerase (EC 5.3.1.4) (l-AI) from Enterococcus faecium DBFIQ E36 was overproduced in Escherichia coli by designing a codon-optimized synthetic araA gene. Using this optimized gene, two N- and C-terminal His-tagged-l-AI proteins were prod...
D-tagatose is a high-value, low-calorie sweetener that can be produced from dairy lactose via a two-step enzymatic route: lactose hydrolysis to galactose followed by galactose isomerization to tagatose. Here, we combined genomics, in silico structura...
The use of ketohexose isomerases is a powerful tool in lactose whey processing, but these enzymes can be very sensitive and expensive. Development of immobilized/stabilized biocatalysts could be a further option to improve the process. In this work,...
d-tagatose is a low-calorie alternative to sucrose natural monosaccharide that is nearly as sweet. As a ketohexose, d-tagatose has disease-relieving and health-promoting properties. Due to its scarcity in nature, d-tagatose is mainly produced through...
Agricultural and industrial activities are increasing pollution of water bodies with low doses of xenobiotics that have detrimental effects on aquaculture. The aim of this work was to determine the possibility of using Levilactobacillus brevis 47f cu...
We have developed a sustainable three-stage process for the revaluation of cheese whey permeate into D-tagatose, a rare sugar with functional properties used as sweetener. The experimental conditions (pH, temperature, cofactors, etc.) for each step w...
The Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) and Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathways are considered the most abundant catabolic pathways found in microorganisms, and ED enzymes have been shown to also be widespread in cyanobacteria, algae and plants...
The genera Parageobacillus and Geobacillus comprise thermophilic, spore-forming bacteria. The extraordinary heat resistance of their spores, together with their ability to form biofilms and produce thermostable enzymes, makes them a relevant cause of...
d-tagatose is a popular functional monosaccharide produced from lactose by β-galactosidase and arabinose isomerase. In this study, two d-alanine-deficient heterologous gene expression systems were constructed, B. subtilis 168 D1 and B. subtilis...
As electrode nanomaterials, thermally reduced graphene oxide (TRGO) and modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were used to design bioelectrocatalytic systems for reliable D-tagatose monitoring in a long-acting bioreactor where the valuable sweetener D-...
