Efficient saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass requires concerted development of a
pretreatment method, an enzyme cocktail and an enzymatic process, all of which are …

Mannans are main components of hemicellulosic fraction of softwoods and they are present
widely in plant tissues. β-mannanases are the major mannan-degrading enzymes and are …

The constant depletion of fossil fuels along with the increasing need for novel materials,
necessitate the development of alternative routes for polymer synthesis. Lignocellulosic …

An engineered thermophilic and acidophilic β-mannanase (ManAK) from Aspergillus
kawachii IFO 4308 was highly expressed in Pichia pastoris. Through high cell density …

A multi-tolerant β-mannanase (ManAo) was produced by Aspergillus oryzae on copra meal,
a low-cost agro waste. Under statistically optimized conditions, 4.3-fold increase in β …

Chinese Baijiu is among the six major distilled spirits in the world, with a significant output.
Consequently, a large quantity of distillers' grains is produced. If these distillers' grains are …

An engineered β-mannanase (mRmMan5A) from Rhizomucor miehei was successfully
expressed in Pichia pastoris. Through high cell density fermentation, the expression level of …

To mitigate the current global energy and the environmental crisis, biofuels such as
bioethanol have progressively gained attention from both scientific and industrial …

Background Softwood is a promising feedstock for lignocellulosic biorefineries, but as it
contains galactoglucomannan efficient mannan-degrading enzymes are required to unlock …

A β-mannanase gene was cloned from Bacillus sp. MK-2 and expressed in Bacillus subtilis
WB800. The ORF of the β-mannanase gene was 1104 bp in length, encoding 367 aa. The …
