Kiyotaka Fujita is an Assistant Professor at Kagoshima University in Japan. I cloned the genes for β-L-arabinobiosidase [1] (for which GH121 has been created), β-L-arabinofuranosidase [2] (for which GH127 has been created), and endo-α-N-acetylagalactosaminidase [3] (for which GH101 has been created) from Bifidobacterium longum.
