Extensive research efforts have been dedicated to describing degradation of wood, which is
a complex process; hence, microorganisms have evolved different enzymatic and non …

Lignin is the 3rd most abundant biopolymer surpassed by cellulose and hemicellulose and
is the most abundant aromatics resource available on earth for utilization by mankind. It was …

Background Since its inception, the carbohydrate-active enzymes database (CAZy;
http://www. cazy. org) has described the families of enzymes that cleave or build complex …

Basidiomycete fungi subsist on various types of plant material in diverse environments, from
living and dead trees and forest litter to crops and grasses and to decaying plant matter in …

Secreted proteins are known to play decisive roles in plant–fungus interactions. To study the
molecular details of the interaction between the xylem‐colonizing, plant‐pathogenic fungus …

Cytochromes c are among the most studied proteins. This is possibly due to their relatively
high thermodynamic stability and their red color, which makes protein purification easier. 1 …

The CAZy auxiliary activity family 3 (AA3) comprises enzymes from the glucose-methanol-
choline (GMC) family of oxidoreductases, which assist the activity of other AA family …

Cellobiose dehydrogenase catalyses the oxidation of aldoses—a simple reaction, a boring
enzyme? No, neither for the envisaged bioelectrochemical applications nor mechanistically …

Cellobiose dehydrogenase, the only currently known extracellular flavocytochrome, is
formed not only by a number of wood-degrading but also by various phytopathogenic fungi …

Aryl-alcohol oxidase (AAO) is an extracellular flavoprotein providing the H 2 O 2 required by
ligninolytic peroxidases for fungal degradation of lignin, the key step for carbon recycling in …
