Improving the Enzymatic Activity and Stability of a Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase. [PDF]
Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper-dependent enzymes that play a pivotal role in the enzymatic conversion of the most recalcitrant polysaccharides, such as cellulose and chitin. Hence, protein engineering is highly required to enhance their catalytic efficiencies.

On the expansion of biological functions of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases [PDF]
SummaryLytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) constitute an enigmatic class of enzymes, the discovery of which has opened up a new arena of riveting research. LPMOs can oxidatively cleave the glycosidic bonds found in carbohydrate polymers enabling the depolymerisation of recalcitrant biomasses, such as cellulose or chitin. While most studies have
