Abstract Background The Aspergillus niger genome contains a large repertoire of genes
encoding carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) that are targeted to plant polysaccharide …

An extracellular β-fructofuranosidase from the yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous was
characterized biochemically, molecularly, and phylogenetically. This enzyme is a …

Palm wine is obtained by fermentation of palm tree sap. In the Pacific coast of Mexico, palm
wine is called Tuba and it is consumed as a traditional fermented beverage. Tuba has …

The extracellular β-fructofuranosidase Xd-INV from the yeast Xanthophyllomyces
