The impact of the carbohydrate-binding module on how a lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase modifies cellulose fibers

Abstract Background In recent years, lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) that oxidatively cleave cellulose have gained increasing attention in cellulose fiber modification. LPMOs are relatively small copper-dependent redox enzymes that occur as single domain proteins but may also contain an...
