Fucose is a monosaccharide commonly found in mammalian, insect, microbial and plant
glycans. The removal of terminal α-l-fucosyl residues from oligosaccharides and …

Fucosylated oligosaccharides play important physiological roles in humans, including in the
immune response, transduction of signals, early embryogenesis and development, growth …

Fucosyllactoses have gained much attention owing to their multiple functions, including
prebiotic, immune, gut, and cognition benefits. In this study, human milk oligosaccharide …

Although the gastrointestinal pathogen Campylobacter jejuni was considered
asaccharolytic,> 50% of sequenced isolates possess an operon for l-fucose utilization. In C …

Microbial α-l-fucosidases catalyse the hydrolysis of terminal α-l-fucosidic linkages and can
perform transglycosylation reactions. Based on sequence identity, α-l-fucosidases are …

Background Acidophilic members of the genus Streptomyces can be a good source for
novel secondary metabolites and degradative enzymes of biopolymers. In this study, a …

Health differences between breast-and formula-fed infants have long been apparent despite
great efforts in improving the function of baby formula by adjusting the levels of various milk …

Fucosyl-N-acetylglucosamine disaccharides are present in many biologically important
oligosaccharides, such as human milk oligosaccharides, Lewis carbohydrate antigens, and …

Fucosyllactose (2′-FL) is known for its ability to provide various health benefits to infants,
such as gut maturation, pathogen resistance, improved immunity, and nervous system …

Here, we report the biochemical characterization of a novel α-l-fucosidase with broad
substrate specificity (FpFucA) isolated from the mycelial fungus Fusarium proliferatum LE1 …
