Characterisation of a Novel Acetyl Xylan Esterase (BaAXE) Screened from the Gut Microbiota of the Common Black Slug (Arion ater) (2022)
Journal Article
Madubuike, H., & Ferry, N. (2022). Characterisation of a Novel Acetyl Xylan Esterase (BaAXE) Screened from the Gut Microbiota of the Common Black Slug (Arion ater). Molecules, 27(9), 2999. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules27092999

Acetyl xylan esterases (AXEs) are enzymes capable of hydrolysing the acetyl bonds in acetylated xylan, allowing for enhanced activity of backbone-depolymerizing enzymes. Bioprospecting novel AXE is essential in designing enzyme cocktails with desired...

From brains to bears. understanding brain size evolution: causes, costs and benefits (2022)
Thesis
Chambers, H. From brains to bears. understanding brain size evolution: causes, costs and benefits. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Developmental and energetic costs result in brains being expensive organs to grow and maintain, yet large brains have evolved in many mammalian species. The adaptive value of increased brain size has come under scrutiny over the past few decades and...
