A recent study conducted by researchers at the National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology in Taiwan explores the potential of marine polysaccharide degrading enzymes in various biotechnological applications. These enzymes have the ability to break down glycosidic linkages in polysaccharides, producing oligosaccharides and monosaccharides. Marine polysaccharides and their derivatives have been found to possess anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anticoagulant, and anticancer properties, and are used in food additives with potential health benefits. The study highlights the importance of these enzymes in depolymerizing marine polysaccharides, providing energy and nutrients to microorganisms, and contributing to nutrient cycling and ecological balance. The research also discusses challenges such as low yields, poor stability, and high costs, and suggests solutions through metabolic engineering and enzyme immobilization. The findings of this study amplify the value of marine polysaccharide degrading enzymes in biotechnological and environmental contexts. [Extracted from the article] |
