Lignocellulose from plant biomass represents an abundant and renewable source for the
production of environmentally friendly chemicals and biofuels. However, its recalcitrant …

Cellulases, as environmentally appropriate catalysts specifically acting on cellulosic
substrates, are important for the industrial conversion of lignocellulose and modification of …

Processive endoglucanases possess both endo-and exoglucanase activity, making them
attractive discovery and engineering targets. Here, a processive endoglucanase EG5C-1 …

The extraction of phenolics from grape pomace (GP) is still a challenging process as part of
compounds may be bound to macromolecules in the plant cell wall. Herein, the combination …

Background Presently, enzymes still constitute a major part of the cost of biofuel production
from lignocellulosic biomass. Processive endoglucanases, which possess both …

Cellulases are one of the most essential natural factors for cellulose degradation and, thus,
have attracted significant interest for various applications. In this study, a cellulase from …

Cellulolytic microorganisms play important roles in global carbon cycling and have evolved
diverse strategies to digest cellulose. Some are 'generous,'releasing soluble sugars from …

Cellulases play important roles in the dietary fibre digestion in pigs, and have multiple
industrial applications. The porcine intestinal microbiota display a unique feature in rapid …

The soil bacterium Cytophaga hutchinsonii actively digests crystalline cellulose by a poorly
understood mechanism. Genome analyses identified nine genes predicted to encode …

Bacteria of the phylum Bacteroidetes are regarded as highly efficient carbohydrate
metabolizers, but most species are limited to (semi) soluble glycans. The soil Bacteroidetes …
