Diversity and strain specificity of plant cell wall degrading enzymes revealed by the draft genome of Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD-1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND:Ruminococcus flavefaciens is a predominant cellulolytic rumen bacterium, which forms a multi-enzyme cellulosome complex that could play an integral role in the ability of this bacterium to degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides.

Ultrastable cellulosome-adhesion complex tightens under load [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2014 AbstractChallenging environments have guided nature in the development of ultrastable protein complexes. Specialized bacteria produce discrete multi-component protein networks called cellulosomes to effectively digest lignocellulosic biomass. While network assembly is enabled by protein interactions with commonplace affinities, we show that certain ...

Impact of scaffoldin mechanostability on cellulosomal activity
Biomaterials Science, 2020 A low mechanostability cohesin between the two cellulosomal anchoring points lowers saccharification activity (top), in contrast to alternative configurations (bottom).

Grape Stalks Valorization towards Circular Economy: A Cascade Biorefinery Strategy
ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 10, May 19, 2025.A cascade protocol for grape stalks valorization has been proposed, characterized by a multidisciplinary strategy using unconventional techniques and subcritical water as a green solvent, where physical/chemical treatments synergistically interact with biological treatments to obtain added value products from all the biomass components.

Magnetizing Biotech–Advances in (In Vivo) Magnetic Enzyme Immobilization
Engineering in Life Sciences, Volume 25, Issue 3, March 2025.ABSTRACT Industrial biocatalysis, a multibillion dollar industry, relies on the selectivity and efficacy of enzymes for efficient chemical transformations. However, enzymes, evolutionary adapted to mild biological conditions, often struggle in industrial processes that require harsh reaction conditions, resulting in reduced stability and activity ...

Book of the 1st Proteome 2 Gene 2 Protein (P2G2P) Hands-On Course [PDF]
, 2016 [Excerpt] The emergence of proteomics, the large-scale analysis of proteins, has been inspired by the awareness that the final product of a gene is inherently more complex and closer to function than the gene itself [1].

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 1, Page 75-93, January 2025.This study describes a unique bi‐catalytic enzyme that combines an oxidative activity (LPMO) acting on cellulose and a hydrolase activity (Man5) acting on mannan thus facilitating the degradation of complex, co‐polymeric plant cell walls. The enzyme works by removing the most abundant cellulose‐covering softwood hemicellulose, mannan, which then allows
