Expression and Characterization of a GH16 Family β-Agarase Derived from the Marine Bacterium <i>Microbulbifer</i> sp. BN3 and Its Efficient Hydrolysis of Agar Using Raw Agar-Producing Red Seaweeds <i>Gracilaria sjoestedtii</i> and <i>Gelidium amansii</i> as Substrates

Agarases catalyze the hydrolysis of agarose to oligosaccharides which display an array of biological and physiological functions with important industrial applications in health-related fields. In this study, the gene encoding agarase (Aga-ms-R) was cloned from <i>Microbulbifer</i> sp. B...
