An actinobacteria lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase acts on both cellulose and xylan to boost biomass saccharification
Abstract Background Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) opened a new horizon for biomass deconstruction. They use a redox mechanism not yet fully understood and the range of substrates initially envisaged to be the crystalline polysaccharides is steadily expanding to non-crystalline ones. Re...
