This month, we officialized two novel GT families, GT136 and GT137, both discovered by the Wihtfield lab, which exhibit original/rare activities : α-pentose and α-Kdo transferases.
We also created two additional subfamilies for GH13 family, following a bioinformatics analysis by the Janecek lab (to be published in Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology).
These subfamilies, GH13_48 and GH13_49, have been characterized some time ago already, but this analysis highlight their conservation pattern and evolutionary relatedness, as well as another group not characterized to date which could become another subfamily in the future.
