Structural insights into xyloglucan recognition by an ABC transporter from a Gram‐positive, thermophilic bacterium

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Athe_2052 is an ABC transporter substrate‐binding protein that recognizes xyloglucan heptasaccharide (XXXG), a soluble breakdown product of plant xyloglucan. The crystal structure of Athe_2052, together with binding assays and computational modeling, shows how XXXG is recognized by this sugar transporter.

Functional Genomics of Lignocellulose Degradation in the Basidiomycete White Rot Schizophyllum commune [PDF]

, 2013
White and brown rot fungi are among the most important wood decayers in nature. Although more than 50 genomes of Basidiomycete white and brown rots have been sequenced by the Joint Genome Institute, there is still a lot to learn about how these fungi ...

Agricultural By‐Products and Black Soldier Fly Larvae Meal as Alternatives to Soybean Meal in Commercial Broiler Diets: Effects on Meat Quality, Fecal Microbiota, and Environmental Impact

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of partially replacing soybean meal with agricultural by‐products with or without supplementation of dried black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) meal on meat quality, intestinal microbiota of commercial broiler chickens, and environmental sustainability.

Lignocellulose degradation by Daedaleopsis confragosa and D. tricolor

BioResources, 2017
The properties and capacities of the ligninolytic enzymes of Daedaleopsis spp. are still unknown. This is the first study on the effect of plant residues and period of cultivation on the properties of Mn-oxidizing peroxidases and laccases of D. confragosa and D. tricolor, as well as their ligninolytic potentials.

Comparative genomics of dark septate endophytes: shedding light on the enigmatic lifestyle and biology of DSEs

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Ancestral lifestyle reconstruction across the phylogeny of the 107 analysed fungal genomes. Summary Dark septate endophytes (DSE) are widespread root‐colonising fungi with poorly understood lifestyle and ecological functions. We investigated their genomic traits, sexual reproduction signatures, carbohydrate‐active enzyme (CAZyme) and secondary ...

Lignocellulose degradation mechanisms across the Tree of Life

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2015
Organisms use diverse mechanisms involving multiple complementary enzymes, particularly glycoside hydrolases (GHs), to deconstruct lignocellulose. Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) produced by bacteria and fungi facilitate deconstruction as does the Fenton chemistry of brown-rot fungi.

Oxidative Catalytic Depolymerization of Technical Lignins to Vanillin(Derivatives) Using Polyoxometalate Catalysts

Advanced Chemical Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 2, December 2026.
A nickel‐substituted polyoxometalate catalyst enables efficient lignin degradation into monoaromatic compounds in a methanol–water solution. ABSTRACT The transition from fossil‐based resources to renewable feedstocks is a cornerstone of industrial decarbonization.
