Synergistic mechanism of GH11 xylanases with different action modes from Aspergillus niger An76
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021 Background Xylan is the most abundant hemicellulose polysaccharide in nature, which can be converted into high value-added products. However, its recalcitrance to breakdown requires the synergistic action of multiple enzymes.

Optimizing yield and chemical compositions of dimethylsulfoxide-extracted birchwood xylan
Journal of Bioresources and Bioproducts, 2022 Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) extraction is commonly used to study the chemical structures of original xylan in the plant cell wall, since the DMSO can preserve the original structure of the xylan as much as possible during the extracting process. In addition,

In muro deacetylation of xylan affects lignin properties and improves saccharification of aspen wood
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background Lignocellulose from fast growing hardwood species is a preferred source of polysaccharides for advanced biofuels and “green” chemicals. However, the extensive acetylation of hardwood xylan hinders lignocellulose saccharification by obstructing
