Welcome to CBM11 The eleventh Carbohydrate Bioengineering Meeting (CBM11) focuses on various aspects of carbohydrate-acting enzymes and biomolecules, their mode of action, structure and structure function relationships, engineering and applications. The applications spread from health and nutrition to material sciences. The subjects are highly topical in the present world, where sustainable use of renewables is a key interest, not just for scientists, but for the whole society, governments and industries. Thanks to the contributions of the participants we have been able to design a programme which covers the recent developments in the focus areas of the meeting. The present programme in Espoo includes 55 talks and flash presentations and 133 poster presentations. The roots of CBM11 go back to Helsingør, Denmark and 1995, when the first CBM meeting was organized twenty years ago. The major aim of the meeting is again to bring together colleagues and scientists active in various fields of carbohydrates, biomolecules and carbohydrate-active enzymes. Our target has been to generate a pleasant environment for knowledge sharing, generating collaborations, and hopefully also for constituting an incubator for many future project ideas. The meeting takes place in Otaniemi, in a beautiful natural cape of the Baltic Sea in Espoo, the home of Aalto University engineering schools and VTT. The programme runs in Dipoli, a famous conference building designed in early 1960´s by Raili and Reima Pietilä showing the interplay of light, Finnish pine wood, copper, and natural rocks. If you are interested in architecture, you may want to take a walk in the campus area, which is designed by the most famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto and to stop by in the main building of Aalto University and the main library, both from 1960’s. On the behalf of the local Organizing Committee we would like to express our gratitude to all our sponsor companies and to all persons who have contributed to organizing this meeting. We wish you a fruitful meeting of scientific excellence and enjoyable stay in spring-like Espoo and Finland.

The efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of agricultural residues into value-added products such as sugars and hydroxycinnamic acids is a challenge because of the recalcitrant properties of the native biomass. Development of synergistic enzyme cocktails is required to overcome biomass residue recalcitrance, and achieve high yields of potential value-added products. In this study, the synergistic action of two termite metagenome-derived feruloyl esterases (FAE5 and FAE6), and an endo-xylanase (Xyn11) from Thermomyces lanuginosus, was optimized using 0.5% (w/v) insoluble wheat arabinoxylan (a model substrate) and then applied to 1% (w/v) corn cobs for the efficient production of xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) and hydroxycinnamic acids. The enzyme combination of 66% Xyn11 and 33% FAE5 or FAE6 (protein loading) produced the highest amounts of XOS, ferulic acid, and p-coumaric acid from untreated, hydrothermal, and acid pre-treated corn cobs.

Under certain environmental conditions, it has massive outbreaks, resulting in attacks of healthy trees, becoming a forest pest. It has been proposed that the bark beetle’s microbiome plays a key role in the insect’s ecology, providing nutrients, inhibiting pathogens, and degrading tree defense compounds, among other probable traits. During a study of bacterial associates from I. typographus, we isolated three strains identified as Pseudomonas from different beetle life stages. In this work, we aimed to reveal the taxonomic status of these bacterial strains and to sequence and annotate their genomes to mine possible traits related to a role within the bark beetle holobiont.

In situ hybridization showed that the mRNA expression pattern of heparanase was similar to that of the protein, suggesting that increased expression of the heparanase protein at the invasive front was caused by an increase of heparanase mRNA in tumor cells. Heparanase expression correlated significantly with depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage and lymphatic

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Heparanase is a critical enzyme involved in the remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM), and its elevated expression has been linked with diseases such as cancer and inflammation. The detection of heparanase enzymatic activity holds tremendous value in the study of the cellular microenvironment, and search of molecular therapeutics targeting heparanase, however, assays developed for this enzyme so far have suffered prohibitive drawbacks. Here we present an ultrasensitive fluorogenic small-molecule probe for heparanase enzymatic activity. The probe exhibits a 756-fold fluorescence turn-on response in the presence of human heparanase, allowing one-step detection of heparanase activity in real-time with a picomolar detection limit.

This hemibiotroph infects only cacao pods and has an extended biotrophic phase lasting up to sixty days, culminating in plant necrosis and sporulation of the fungus without the formation of a basidiocarp. Results: We sequenced and assembled 52.3 Mb into 3,298 contigs that represent the M. roreri genome. Of the 17,920 predicted open reading frames (OFRs), 13,760 were validated by RNA-Seq. Using read count data from RNA sequencing of cacao pods at 30 and 60 days post infection, differential gene expression was estimated for the biotrophic and necrotrophic phases of this plant-pathogen interaction. The sequencing data were used to develop a genome based secretome for the infected pods. Of the 1,535 genes encoding putative secreted proteins, 1,355 were expressed in the biotrophic and necrotrophic phases.

Year: 2014 Number of pages: 257 Flavonoid glycosides are natural plant secondary metabolites exhibiting many physicochemical and biological properties. Glycosylation usually improves flavonoid solubility but access to flavonoid glycosides is limited by their low production levels in plants. In this thesis work, the focus was placed on the development of new glucodiversification routes of natural flavonoids by taking advantage of protein engineering. Two biochemically and structurally characterized recombinant transglucosylases, the amylosucrase from Neisseria polysaccharea and the α-(1→2) branching sucrase, a truncated form of the dextransucrase from L. Mesenteroides NRRL B-1299, were selected to attempt glucosylation of different flavonoids, synthesize new α-glucoside derivatives with original patterns of glucosylation and hopefully improved their water-solubility.

La Fontana 501, Lima 12, Lima, Peru ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are versatile electronic devices used for environmental energy harvesting Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and self-powered electronics with a wide range of potential applications. The rapid development of TENGs has Green electronics caused great concern regarding the environmental impacts of conventional electronic devices. Under this Recyclable electronics context, researching alternatives to synthetic and toxic materials in electronics are of major significance.
