On the functional characterization of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) [PDF]
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2019 Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are abundant in nature and best known for their role in the enzymatic conversion of recalcitrant polysaccharides such as chitin and cellulose. LPMO activity requires an oxygen co-substrate, which was originally thought to be O2, but which may also be H2O2.

Classification of fungal and bacterial lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2015 Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases are important enzymes for the decomposition of recalcitrant biological macromolecules such as plant cell wall and chitin polymers. These enzymes were originally designated glycoside hydrolase family 61 and carbohydrate-binding module family 33 but are now classified as auxiliary activities 9, 10 and 11 in the CAZy ...

Heterologous expression of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs)
Biotechnology Advances, 2020 Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are relatively new enzymes that have been discovered 10 years ago. LPMOs comprise a diverse group of enzymes which play a pivotal role in the depolymerization of sugar-based biopolymers including cellulose, hemicellulose, chitin, and starch.

A novel expression system for lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases [PDF]
Carbohydrate Research, 2017 Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are key enzymatic players of lignocellulosic biomass degradation processes. As such, they have been introduced in cellulolytic cocktails for more efficient and less expensive lignocellulose saccharification. The recombinant production of LPMOs in bacteria for scientific investigations using vectors typically ...
