  • Publication number: 20220282237
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel fucose isomerase and a fucose production method using same. More specifically, in a reversible reaction between L-fucose and L-fuculose, an L-fucose isomerase, derived from a Raoultella sp. KDH 14 strain isolated from abalone intestines, favors the reaction progressing from L-fuculose to L-fucose, and thus the present invention provides the effect of applying same to the production of L-fucose.

  • Publication number: 20220243188
    Abstract: The present invention relates to use of an enzyme that cleaves both alpha- and beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds and, more particularly, the present invention provides ?-L-fucosidase which has ?-1,4-glucosidase and ?-1,4-galactosidase activities and thus is capable of producing glucose and/or galactose, which are monosaccharides, from non-fucosylated saccharides. The enzyme has transglycosylation activity and thus produces maltooligosaccharides having a higher degree of polymerization than maltooligosaccharides used as a substrate, thereby being applicable to the development of high-value-added new materials in the food industry.

  • Publication number: 20220017035
    Abstract: Proposed is an apparatus for connecting a steering wheel and an airbag module. The airbag module is mounted on a front portion of the steering wheel. A coupling hole extends through the steering wheel in a front-rear direction. A hook extends from the airbag module through the coupling hole to protrude from a rear surface of the steering wheel. A bend on a distal end of the hook is bent in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the hook. A fixing clip blocks the movement of the hook in a forward direction of the steering wheel, with first end being fixed to the steering wheel, and the second end being caught by the bend of the hook. A fixing recess is indented into the steering wheel, thereby allowing the second end of the fixing clip to move in the forward direction of the steering wheel.
