Characterisation of a recombinant ?-xylosidase (xylA) from Aspergillus oryzae expressed in Pichia pastoris (2014)
Journal Article

β-xylosidases catalyse the hydrolysis of short chain xylooligosaccharides from their non-reducing ends into xylose. In this study we report the heterologous expression of Aspergillus oryzae β-xylosidase (XylA) in Pichia pastoris under the control of...

The complete plasmid sequences of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium U288 (2014)
Journal Article

Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium U288 is an emerging pathogen of pigs. The strain contains three plasmids of diverse origin that encode traits that are of concern for food security and safety, these include antibiotic resistant determinants, a...

Food safety organisations in Saudi Arabia – organisational, historical and future analysis (2014)
Journal Article

Food safety organisations around the world are increasingly seeking to develop public policies to protect society, improve the economy, and ensure food safety and quality, by reducing the risks of food-borne illnesses, commercial adulteration, and fo...

Alternative bacteriophage life cycles: the carrier state of Campylobacter jejuni (2014)
Journal Article

Members of the genus Campylobacter are frequently responsible for human enteric disease, often through consumption of contaminated poultry products. Bacteriophages are viruses that have the potential to control pathogenic bacteria, but understanding...

Heterologous expression and kinetic characterisation of Neurospora crassa ?-xylosidase in Pichia pastoris (2014)
Journal Article

To degrade plant hemicelluloses fungi employ β-xylosidases to hydrolyse xylooligosaccharides, released by endo-xylanases, into xylose. We have expressed the β-xylosidase from Neurospora crassa in Pichia pastoris under the control of alcohol oxidase 1...
