Biochemical characteristics and molecular mechanism of an exo-type alginate lyase VxAly7D and its use for the preparation of unsaturated monosaccharides

Abstract Background As the most abundant polysaccharide in brown algae, alginate has become a promising economical material for bioethanol production. Recently, exo-type alginate lyases have received extensive attention because the unsaturated monosaccharides produced by their degradation of alginat...
