Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases disrupt the cellulose fibers structure [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractLytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are a class of powerful oxidative enzymes that breakdown recalcitrant polysaccharides such as cellulose. Here we investigate the action of LPMOs on cellulose fibers. After enzymatic treatment and dispersion, LPMO-treated fibers show intense fibrillation. Cellulose structure modifications visualized at

Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications
Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, Volume 73, Issue 9, Page 1278-1290, September 2026.This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

Activation of bacterial lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases with cellobiose dehydrogenase [PDF]
Protein Science, 2016 AbstractLytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) represent a recent addition to the carbohydrate‐active enzymes and are classified as auxiliary activity (AA) families 9, 10, 11, and 13. LPMOs are crucial for effective degradation of recalcitrant polysaccharides like cellulose or chitin.
