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 ...

Structure of a Thermobifida fusca lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase and mutagenesis of key residues

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
Background Auxiliary activity (AA) enzymes are produced by numerous bacterial and fungal species to assist in the degradation of biomass. These enzymes are abundant but have yet to be fully characterized.

A Bibliometric Review and Visualization of Research Progress in Computational Modeling for Biofuels

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
This bibliometric mapping of biomass‐to‐biofuel computational modeling research (2003–2025) traces the field's rapid growth, key contributors, and international collaboration networks, revealing a decisive shift toward multiscale, hybrid, and AI‐enabled modeling as the field's next frontier for sustainable biofuel production. ABSTRACT The conversion of

Bacterial flavin-containing monooxygenase is trimethylamine monooxygenase [PDF]

, 2011
Flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) are one of the most important monooxygenase systems in Eukaryotes and have many important physiological functions. FMOs have also been found in bacteria; however, their physiological function is not known.

Deletion of Major Endoxylanase Genes in Fusarium graminearum Uncovers Distinct Virulence Phenotypes Influenced by the Genetic Background

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Deletion of major endoxylanases in Fusarium graminearum shows that xylA controls virulence via pleiotropic, genetic background‐dependent regulatory effects rather than xylanase activity per se. ABSTRACT Fusarium graminearum, the main causal agent of Fusarium head blight of wheat, secretes endoxylanases to hydrolyse xylan, a major component of ...

The Linker Region Promotes Activity and Binding Efficiency of Modular LPMO towards Polymeric Substrate

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) mediate oxidative degradation of plant polysaccharides. The genes encoding LPMOs are most commonly arranged with one catalytic domain, while a few are found tethered to additional noncatalytic units, i.e ...

Polysaccharide oxidation by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase is enhanced by engineered cellobiose dehydrogenase [PDF]

The FEBS Journal, 2019
The catalytic function of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) to cleave and decrystallize recalcitrant polysaccharides put these enzymes in the spotlight of fundamental and applied research. Here we demonstrate that the demand of LPMO for an electron donor and an oxygen species as cosubstrate can be fulfilled by a single auxiliary enzyme: an ...

Ectomycorrhizal Cortinariaceae species dominate class II peroxidase gene expression in a boreal forest soil

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 400-413, October 2026.
Share of transcripts and ITS2 sequence for each gene families among identified fungal contigs and OTUs. Summary Boreal forest ecosystems constitute a large terrestrial reservoir of carbon. In these nitrogen‐limited environments, release of nutrients through decomposition of soil organic matter is of fundamental importance.

Fragmentation-Based Decomposition of a Metalloenzyme–Substrate Interaction: A Case Study for a Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase

, 2022
We present a novel decomposition scheme for electronic interaction energies based on the flexible formulation of fragmentation schemes through fragment combination ranges (FCRs; J. Chem. Phys., 2021, 155, 164105). We devise a clear additive decomposition

Mimicking the Cu Active Site of Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase Using Monoanionic Tridentate N‑Donor Ligands

In an effort to prepare small molecule mimics of the active site of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO), three monoanionic tridentate N donor ligands comprising a central deprotonated amide group flanked by two neutral donors were prepared, and ...
