Nanoscale dynamics of cellulose digestion by the cellobiohydrolase TrCel7A [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2021 Understanding the mechanism by which cellulases from bacteria, fungi, and protozoans catalyze the digestion of lignocellulose is important for developing cost-effective strategies for bioethanol production. Cel7A from the fungus Trichoderma reesei is a model exoglucanase that degrades cellulose strands from their reducing ends by processively cleaving ...

Metagenomic Analysis Reveals New Microbiota Related to Fiber Digestion in Pigs
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Making full use of high fiber and low-cost crop coproducts is helpful to alleviate the situation of people and livestock competing for crops. Digestion of dietary fibers in pigs is mainly through microbial fermentation in the large intestine.

Cellulose digestion in insects [PDF]
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1983 Abstract 1. 1. Cellulose digestion has been demonstrated in the Thysanura (Lepismatidae), Orthoptera (Cryptocercidae, Blattidae). Isoptera (Mastotermitidae. Kalotermitidae. Hodotermitidae, Rhinotermitdae, Termitidae). Coleoptera (Buprestidae. Anobiidae, Scarabaeidae, Cerambycidae), and Hymenoptera (Siricidae). 2. 2.
