The molecular basis of polysaccharide cleavage by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases. [PDF]

Nature Chemical Biology, 2016
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper-containing enzymes that oxidatively break down recalcitrant polysaccharides such as cellulose and chitin. Since their discovery, LPMOs have become integral factors in the industrial utilization of biomass, especially in the sustainable generation of cellulosic bioethanol.
