Identification of a New Endo-β-1,4-xylanase Prospected from the Microbiota of the Termite <i>Heterotermes tenuis</i>

Xylanases are hemicellulases that break down xylan to soluble pentoses. They are used for industrial purposes, such as paper whitening, beverage clarification, and biofuel production. The second-generation bioethanol production is hindered by the enzymatic hydrolysis step of the lignocellulosic biom...
