Lignocellulosic biomass is the earth's most abundant renewable feedstock alternative that
comprises of cellulose, hemi-cellulose and lignin. The synergistic action of …

It is a mammoth task to develop a modular protein toolbox enabling the production of
posttranslational organized multifunctional enzymes that catalyze reactions in complex …

Cellulase activity on insoluble cellulose substrates declines as the substrate is modified. The
role of structural changes that result in substrate recalcitrance, such as changes to cellulose …

Valorizing plant cell wall, marine and algal polysaccharides is of utmost importance for the
development of the circular bioeconomy. This is because polysaccharides are by far the …

Biological deconstruction of polymer materials gains efficiency from the spatiotemporally
coordinated action of enzymes with synergetic function in polymer chain depolymerization …

Cellulose is the most abundant polysaccharide in lignocellulosic biomass, where it is
interlinked with lignin and hemicellulose. Bioethanol can be produced from biomass. Since …

Cellulosic ethanol production relies on the biochemical (enzymatic) conversion of
lignocellulose to fermentable sugars and ultimately to bioethanol. However, the cost of …

Dilute acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass at higher temperatures (> 160° C)
solubilizes/removes hemicelluloses (xylan, arabinan, mannan, galactan) and acid-soluble …

Phage lysins constitute a new generation of antimicrobials that are becoming a promising
alternative and complementation to current antibiotic therapies, which are nowadays called …

Cellulases from glycoside hydrolase family 48 (GH48) are critical components of natural
lignocellulose-degrading systems. GH48 cellulases are broadly distributed in cellulolytic …
