Metagenomics Investigation of Agarlytic Genes and Genomes in Mangrove Sediments in China: A Potential Repertory for Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes

Metagenomics Investigation of Agarlytic Genes and Genomes in Mangrove Sediments in China: A Potential Repertory for Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes

Monosaccharides and oligosaccharides produced by agarose degradation exhibit potential in the fields of bioenergy, medicine, and cosmetics. Mangrove sediments (MGSs) provide a special environment to enrich enzymes for agarose degradation. However, representative investigations of the agarlytic genes...
