Biotransformation of methyl-β-D-glucopyranoside to higher chain alkyl glucosides by cell bound β-glucosidase of Pichia etchellsii.

Bioresour. Technol. 107 , 287-294, (2012)

In the present study, we have investigated the use of Pichia etchellsii whole cells for synthesis of long-chain alkyl glucosides. Methyl-β-d-glucopyranoside (MG) was used in reaction with fatty alcohols, n-hexanol, n-octanol, n-decanol and n-dodecanol to synt...

β-Glucosidase catalyzed synthesis of octyl-β-D-glucopyranoside using whole cells of Pichia etchellsii in micro aqueous media.

J. Biotechnol. 150 , 490-496, (2010)

Octyl-β-D-glucopyranoside was synthesized by transglucosylation between p-nitrophenyl β-D-glucopyranoside (pNPG) and octanol as an acceptor using whole cells of thermo tolerant yeast Pichia etchellsii displaying cell wall bound β-glucosidase. Effect of severa...

Methyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside in higher plants: accumulation and intracellular localization in Geum montanum L. leaves and in model systems studied by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance.

J. Exp. Bot. 55 , 2179-2189, (2004)

Using (13)C-NMR, methyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (MeG) was characterized as a major compound in the leaves of the alpine herb Geum montanum L. MeG continuously accumulated during the life span of G. montanum leaves, and accounted for up to 20% of the soluble ca...
