Induction and Characterisation of Lignocellulolytic Activities from Novel Deep-Sea Fungal Secretomes
Fermentation, 2023 Fungi are increasingly recognised as being able to inhabit extreme environments. The deep sea is considered an extreme environment because of its low temperatures, high hydrostatic and lithostatic pressures, 3.5% salinity, and low oxygen, nutrient and ...

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.

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.

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.

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.

Cereal Arabinoxylans—Their Enzymatic Degradation and Relevance for Breadmaking and Human Health
Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT As the most abundant nonstarch polysaccharides in cereals, arabinoxylans (AXs) contribute significantly to the global intake of dietary fiber. They play a crucial role in the breadmaking process with respect to dough rheology and texture, bread volume, and nutritional quality, especially when starting from wheat or rye flour.
