Recombinant Cellulase and Cellulosome Systems [PDF]
, 2013 The non-renewable fossil resources currently exploited by the oil and gas industries are the objects of growing concern owing to their finite supply and contribution to global warming. Lignocellulosic biomass is a sustainable alternative to fossil resources, and has the added advantage of not competing with human and animal nutrition.

Potential of Selected Rumen Bacteria for Cellulose and Hemicellulose Degradation
Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2014 Herbivorous animals harbour potent cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic microorganisms that supply the host with nutrients acquired from degradation of ingested plant material. In addition to protozoa and fungi, rumen bacteria contribute a considerable part

Adaptor Scaffoldins: An Original Strategy for Extended Designer Cellulosomes, Inspired from Nature
mBio, 2016 Designer cellulosomes consist of chimeric cohesin-bearing scaffoldins for the controlled incorporation of recombinant dockerin-containing enzymes. The largest designer cellulosome reported to date is a chimeric scaffoldin that contains 6 cohesins.
