Molecular and physiological role of the trehalose-hydrolyzing alpha-glucosidase from Thermus thermophilus HB27.
J. Bacteriol. 190(7) , 2298-305, (2008) Trehalose supports the growth of Thermus thermophilus strain HB27, but the absence of obvious genes for the hydrolysis of this disaccharide in the genome led us to search for enzymes for such a purpose. We expressed a putative alpha-glucosidase gene (TTC0107)... |

Bacillus thermoamyloliquefaciens KP1071 alpha-glucosidase II is a thermostable M(r) 540,000 homohexameric alpha-glucosidase with both exo-alpha-1,4-glucosidase and oligo-1,6-glucosidase activities.
Eur. J. Biochem. 245(1) , 129-36, (1997) alpha-Glucosidase II of the facultative thermophile Bacillus thermoamyloliquefaciens KP1071 (FERM-P8477; growth over 30-66 degrees C) was purified to a homogeneous state. Its M(r) was estimated as 90000 by SDS/PAGE. However, the enzyme behaved as an active Mr... |

Responses of the ant Lasius niger to various compounds perceived as sweet in humans: a structure-activity relationship study.
Chem. Senses 26(3) , 231-7, (2001) A behavioural study on the ant Lasius niger was performed by observing its feeding responses to 85 compounds presented in a two-choice situation (tested compound versus water control or sucrose solution). Among these compounds, only 21 were phagostimulating: ... |

E.s.r. study of the alkaline degradation of disaccharides in methyl sulfoxide.
Carbohydr. Res. 224 , 19-27, (1992) The degradation of a series of deoxy sugars and disaccharides in methyl sulfoxide-tetrabutylammonium hydroxide has been studied by e.s.r. spectroscopy. The generation of radicals and the types of radical formed are dependent on the anomeric configuration of n... |

Effects of haemagglutination (lectin) inhibitory sugars on Theileria parva infection in Rhipicephalus appendiculatus.
Int. J. Parasitol. 25(1) , 29-35, (1995) We have previously described the presence of haemagglutinins in tissues of the tick, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus and determined their sugar specificities by inhibition experiments. In this study, haemagglutination inhibitory sugars are shown to have an effec... |

Normal coordinates analyses of disaccharides constituted by D-glucose, D-galactose and D-fructose units.
Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 68(2) , 284-99, (2007) A thorough study of the vibrational spectra of two disaccharides, melibiose and turanose, is presented in this work. The infrared and Raman spectra of these two compounds have been first recorded in the mid infrared range then in the far infrared region (for ... |

Relevant principal component analysis applied to the characterisation of Portuguese heather honey.
Nat. Prod. Res. 22(17) , 1560-82, (2008) The main purpose of this study was the characterisation of 'Serra da Lousã' heather honey by using novel statistical methodology, relevant principal component analysis, in order to assess the correlations between production year, locality and composition. Her... |

Amylosucrase from Neisseria polysaccharea: novel catalytic properties.
FEBS Lett. 471(2-3) , 219-23, (2000) Amylosucrase is a glucosyltransferase that synthesises an insoluble alpha-glucan from sucrose. The catalytic properties of the highly purified amylosucrase from Neisseria polysaccharea were characterised. Contrary to previously published results, it was demon... |

Crystal structure of Pterocarpus angolensis lectin in complex with glucose, sucrose, and turanose.
J. Biol. Chem. 278(18) , 16297-303, (2003) The crystal structure of the Man/Glc-specific seed lectin from Pterocarpus angolensis was determined in complex with methyl-alpha-d-glucose, sucrose, and turanose. The carbohydrate binding site contains a classic Man/Glc type specificity loop. Its metal bindi... |
