Functional conservation and divergence of Miscanthus lutarioriparius GT43 gene family in xylan biosynthesis [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Xylan is the most abundant un-cellulosic polysaccharides of plant cell walls. Much progress in xylan biosynthesis has been gained in the model plant species Arabidopsis.

Kinetics of Xylan Saccharification

Journal of the agricultural chemical society of Japan, 1953
In this paper, the reation rate, K1 (minutes-1), of xylan hydrolysis in dilute and strong sulfuric acid was observed and compared with the reaction rate, K2 (minutes-1), of xylose decomposition in dilute and strong sulfuric acid; the value of the ratio K1/K2 was calculated to be ca. 20_??_9530 under observed conditions as shown in Table 1.

Evolution of Xylan Substitution Patterns in Gymnosperms and Angiosperms: Implications for Xylan Interaction with Cellulose [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2016
The interaction between cellulose and xylan is important for the load-bearing secondary cell wall of flowering plants. Based on the precise, evenly spaced pattern of acetyl and glucuronosyl (MeGlcA) xylan substitutions in eudicots, we recently proposed that an unsubstituted face of xylan in a 2-fold helical screw can hydrogen bond to the hydrophilic ...

Sequential fractionation and polyoxometalate‐catalyzed oxidation of lignocellulosic biomass improves cellulose purity and formic acid yield

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Lignocellulosic biomass is an important source of renewable chemicals and materials but its full valorization is necessary in order to achieve economic and sustainability goals. This study proposes a two‐step approach for the valorization of lignocellulosic biomass combining solvent‐assisted fractionation and catalytic oxidation with molecular

Minimizing the enzyme dosage for ethanol production from cellulose‐rich bagasse residues after furfural production

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Through consolidated bioprocessing, cellulosic ethanol production from sugarcane bagasse residues emanating from furfural production (furfural residues, FRs) may offer substantial cost reductions compared with conventional pretreatment–hydrolysis–fermentation of lignocelluloses. Furfural residues have a high enzymatic digestibility and require

The Aspergillus niger faeB gene encodes a second feruloyl esterase involved in pectin and xylan degradation and is specifically induced in the presence of aromatic compounds [PDF]

The faeB gene encoding a second feruloyl esterase from Aspergillus niger has been cloned and characterized. It consists of an open reading frame of 1644 bp containing one intron.

Biomimetic and Compressible Wood Phase Change Gel With Hierarchically Aligned Lamellar Structure for Controlled Thermal Management

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Inspired by skeletal muscle thermogenesis, a wood phase change gel exhibiting mechano‐controlled heat release is developed. Under compression, the wood phase change gel overcomes its energy barrier, inducing its phase change from supercooling to crystallization and raising its overall temperature by around 5°C.

Xylooligosaccharide Production from Tobacco Stalk Xylan using Xylanase Streptomyces sp. BO 3.2

Makara Journal of Science, 2015
Tobacco stalk (TS), which is one type of lignocellulosic material, has a xylan content of up to 21.9%. Lignocellulose can be used to produce xylooligosaccharides (XOs). XOs are dietary fibers that have prebiotic activity.
