Engineering Strategies for Fungal Cell Disruption in Biotechnological Applications

Engineering in Life Sciences, Volume 25, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Fungal cell disruption plays a critical role in unlocking a wide range of high‐value intracellular products such as lipids, proteins, pigments, and bioactive compounds. However, lysing fungal cells is far more challenging than breaking bacterial or algal cells due to their robust and highly structured cell walls.
