Glycoside hydrolases in the biodegradation of lignocellulosic biomass. [PDF]
3 Biotech, 2023 Lignocellulose is a plentiful and intricate biomass substance made up of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Cellulose and hemicellulose are polysaccharides characterized by different compositions and degrees of polymerization. As renewable resources, their applications are eco-friendly and can help reduce reliance on petrochemical resources.

GH97 is a new family of glycoside hydrolases, which is related to the α-galactosidase superfamily [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2005 Background As a rule, about 1% of genes in a given genome encode glycoside hydrolases and their homologues. On the basis of sequence similarity they have been grouped into more than ninety GH families during the last 15 years.
