Xuanwei Mei is currently a Ph.D. student at the College of Food Science and Engineering, Ocean University of China, under the instruction of Prof. Yaoguang Chang. His research focuses on the gene-mining and characterization of carbohydrate-binding modules. So far, he discovered and characterized five CBMs:

  • CBM16: ABP_Wf (alginate-binding CBM)[1]
  • CBM47: WfCBM47 (sulfated fucan-binding CBM)[2]
  • CBM70: SrCBM70 (hyaluronic acid-binding CBM)[3]
  • CBM92: Cgk16A-CBM92 (carrageenan-binding CBM; the first member of the CBM92 family)[4]
  • CBMnc: Fun174A-CBM (sulfated fucan-binding CBM)[5]
