Research Abstract |
β-L-Arabinooligosaccharides are found in the sugar chains of extensin observed in plant cell wall fractions. In this study, we cloned and characterizedα-L-arabinofuranosidase, novelβ-L-arabinobiosidase and novelβ-L-arabinofuranosidase from Bifidobacterium longum. Furthermore, we revealed a novel degradation pathway forβ-L-arabinooligosaccharides in B. longum.
