The xyl-doc gene cluster of Ruminiclostridium cellulolyticum encodes GH43- and GH62-α-l-arabinofuranosidases with complementary modes of action
Abstract Background The α-l-arabinofuranosidases (α-l-ABFs) are exoenzymes involved in the hydrolysis of α-l-arabinosyl linkages in plant cell wall polysaccharides. They play a crucial role in the degradation of arabinoxylan and arabinan and they are used in many biotechnological applications. Analy...
