The 5.6 Gb metagenome of free-living microbial flora in the gut of the lower termite Coptotermes gestroi, harvested in Vietnam, was sequenced using Illumina technology. Genes related to biomass degradation were mined for a better understanding of biomass digestion in the termite gut and to identify
Activation of the yeast cell wall integrity MAPK pathway by zymolyase depends on protease and glucanase activities and requires the mucin-like protein Hkr1 but not Msb2.

FEBS letters.FEBS Lett.2013 Nov 15;587(22):3675-80. doi: 10.1016/j.febslet.2013.09.030. Epub 2013 Oct 4.
Yeast adaptation to conditions in which cell wall integrity is compromised mainly relies on the cell wall integrity (CWI) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Zymolyase, a mixture of cell wall-digesting enzymes, triggers a peculiar signaling mechanism in which activation of the CWI pathw
Endo-β-1,3-glucanases catalyze the hydrolysis of β-1,3-glycosidic linkages in glucans. They are also responsible for rather diverse physiological functions such as carbon utilization, cell-wall organization and pathogen defence. Glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 81 mainly consists of β-1,3-glucanas
