Yx. Zhao et Ml. Sinnott, A new affinity ligand for the isolation of a single 'feruloyl esterase' (FAE-III) from Aspergillus niger, BIO MED CH, 8(5), 2000, pp. 917-924
Amino octyl 5'-S-coniferyl-5'-deoxy-thio-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside has been
synthesised a nd shown to be a selective affinity ligand for the feruloyl
esterase III of Aspergillus niger. The hydrolyses of methyl 5-O-coumaroyl,
feruloyl, or sinapoyl alpha-L-arabinofuranosides by this enzyme proceed at
comparable rates. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights re
