Functional Applications of Lignocellulolytic Enzymes in the Fruit and Vegetable Processing Industries [PDF]

Journal of Food Science, 2017
Abstract Cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin (carbohydrate), and lignin (noncarbohydrate) polymers are the main substrates of lignocellulose‐degrading enzymes. They are present in large amounts in the primary cell wall and dietary fibers of major fruits and vegetables. During processing of fruits and vegetables to the corresponding final

Discovering PETases: An Interlink Between Engineering Enzymes and Microbiomes

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
In this review‐type article, we discuss some recent trends in the identification of polyethylene terephthalate‐degrading enzymes (PETases) from nature. We highlight that the discovery of novel PETases can be improved by an interlink between reshaping microbiomes and engineering proteins.

Synergistic Bioconversion of Date Palm Leaves Into Ruminant Feed by a Leopard Moth (Zeuzera pyrina L.) Gut Bacterial Consortium and Nutrient Stimulators

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Treating date palm leaves with a bacterial consortium, especially when supplemented with glucose and urea, significantly degrades lignin. This process enhances nutritional value by increasing crude protein, digestibility, and metabolizable energy. The method effectively transforms this agricultural by‐product into a viable ruminant feed.

Characterization of the CAZy Repertoire from the Marine-Derived Fungus Stemphylium lucomagnoense in Relation to Saline Conditions

Marine Drugs, 2020
Even if the ocean represents a large part of Earth’s surface, only a few studies describe marine-derived fungi compared to their terrestrial homologues.

Dynamic changes in community structure and degradation performance of a bacterial consortium MMBC-1 during the subculturing revival reveal the potential decomposers of lignocellulose

Bioresources and Bioprocessing, 2022
Bacterial consortium is an important source of lignocellulolytic strains, but it is still a challenge to distinguish the direct decomposers of lignocellulose from other bacteria in such a complex community.

Sustainable Pretreatment of Food Waste for Enhanced Bioethanol Production and Improved Waste Management: A Review

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the conversion of food waste biomass into bioethanol through integrated pretreatment strategies. Physical (mechanical, thermal, sonication), chemical (alkali, acidic, oxidative/ROS), and biological (fungal, bacterial, enzymatic) pretreatments enhance biomass breakdown.

Glucuronoyl Esterase of Pathogenic Phanerochaete carnosa Induces Immune Responses in Aspen Independently of Its Enzymatic Activity

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 602-619, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial enzymes expressed in plants add new functionalities but occasionally trigger undesirable immune responses. Phanerochaete carnosa glucuronoyl esterase (PcGCE) hydrolyses the bond between lignin and 4‐O‐methyl‐α‐D‐glucuronic acid substituent of glucuronoxylan.
