Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reviews basic research into the biochemistry and genetics of lignocellulose biodegradation; the breakdown of cellulose containing products utilizing microorganisms. This topic has received much attention of late because of possibilities for the biotechnology industry and because it is hoped that advances in the field will make a contribution to the energy crisis by utilizing biomass. However, there remains a good deal of basic research still to be done before full exploitation can be achieved.

Download or read book Ecology of Saprotrophic Basidiomycetes written by Lynne Boddy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2007-12-29 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The breadth and depth of understanding of many areas concerning basidiomycetes has increased dramatically since the premier publication of Frankland et al., Decomposer Basidiomycetes: their Biology and Ecology. New vistas have opened up with the advent of powerful computing, modeling and molecular approaches helping to greatly increase the general understanding of the ecology of basidiomycetes. This is tantamount to understanding the role of fungi in natural ecosystems because they are major agents of decomposition and nutrient cycling. These remarkable advances have been incorporated into this volume that discusses all aspects of saprotrophic basidiomycete ecology.
Download or read book Lignocellulose Biotechnology written by Ramesh Chander Kuhad and published by I. K. International Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2007 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The agricultural and forestry processing wastes (lignocellulosics) are an important material resource and energy source. However, if untreated they can pose a danger to the environment and potentially valuable resources. Microorganisms contribute significantly to solving the problem of biomass degradation, its recycling and conservation. In the recent years, an increasing interest shown by the textile, food, feed & pulp, and paper industries in the microbial and enzymatic processes has triggered in-depth studies of lignocellulolytic microorganisms and their enzymes. Moreover, the advent of recombinant DNA technology in the late 1970s further paved the way for developing technologies based on lignocellulolytic microbes and enzymes. Lignocellulose Biotechnology presents a comprehensive review of the research directed towards environmentally friendly agricultural and forest by-products. The book comprises 22 chapters, divided in four sections. It deals with a wide range of topics including biodiversity of lignocellulose degrading microorganisms and their enzymes, molecular biology of biodegradation of lignin, characterization of lignocellulolytic enzymes, bioconversion of plant biomass to produce enzymes, animal feed, bioethanol and industrial applications of lignocellulolytic enzymes. The chapters dealing with industrial applications also address current biotechnological approaches in lignocellulose bioconversion to value added products. This book is essential for students, researchers, scientists, and engineers working in the fields of environmental microbiology, environmental biotechnology, life sciences, waste management, and biomaterials.
Download or read book Approaches to Enhance Industrial Production of Fungal Cellulases written by Manish Srivastava and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-26 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cellulase is a key enzyme of industrial interest and plays a crucial role in the hydrolysis of cellulose, a prime component of plant cell walls. Cellulase covers a broad area in the global market of industrially important enzymes and it is considered as the third largest industrial enzyme globally. Additionally, cellulase contributes about 20% of the total enzyme market globally because of its massive demand in various industries such as in biofuel production, pulp, paper, textile, food, and beverages, as well as in detergent industries. Among these, the demand of cellulase may become frequently selected in the commercial production of biofuels in the future and thus will further increase demand of cellulase in the biofuel industry. Because biofuel production is still not realized in a cost-effective, practical implementation due to its high cost (the higher cost of biofuels is due to higher production costs of enzymes), there is a need to introduce these types of approaches, which will help to lower the cost of enzyme production for developing overall economic biofuel production.
Download or read book Microbial and Enzymatic Degradation of Wood and Wood Components written by Karl-Erik L. Eriksson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oil crisis during the 1970s turned interest towards the utilization of renewable resources and towards lignocellulosics in particular. The 1970s were also the cradle period of biotechnology, and the years when biotechnical utilization of lignocellulosic waste from agriculture and forestry gained priori ty. This was a logical conclusion since one of nature's most important biologi cal reactions is the conversion of wood and other lignocellulosic materials to carbon dioxide, water and humic substances. However, while biotechnology in other areas like medicine and pharmacology concerned production of expen sive products on a small scale, biotechnical utilization and conversion of ligno cellulosics meant production of inexpensive products on a large scale. Biotechnical utilization of lignocellulosic materials is therefore a very difficult task, and the commercial utilization of this technology has not progressed as rapidly as one would have desired. One reason for this was the lack of basic knowledge of enzyme mechanisms involved in the degradation and conversion of wood, other lignocellulosics and their individual components. There are also risks associated with initiating a technical development before a stable platform of knowledge is available. Several of the projects started with en thusiasm have therefore suffered some loss of interest. Also contributing to this failing interest is the fact that the oil crisis at the time was not a real one. At present, nobody predicts a rapid exhaustion of the oil resources and fuel production from lignocellulosics is no longer a high priority.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cellulose is the most abundant biomolecule on Earth and is composed of chains of glucose, but its depolymerization for use in the production of renewable bioenergy and biomaterials is inefficient. To better understand the mechanisms of cellulose degradation by cellobiohydrolases, a class of enzymes that cleave cellulose into cellobiose dimers, we characterized accessory enzymes that act on cellulose in combination with Trichoderma reesei Cel7A, a cellobiohydrolase that targets the reducing ends of glucan chains in cellulose. The accessory enzymes studied include endo-1,4-[beta]-D-glucanase (Cel7B) from Trichoderma longibrachiatum and Cel6A, a cellobiohydrolase II. Cel7B randomly cleaves cellulose to produce additional binding sites for other cellulases, whereas Cel6A cleaves cellobiose units from the nonreducing ends of glucan chains in cellulose. By measuring reducing end production in reactions between cellulose from Acetobacter and these enzymes, we found that although the addition of Cel7B with Cel7A significantly enhances cellulose hydrolysis, the enzyme appears to act in an additive manner rather than a synergistic (multiplicative) one. Conversely, Cel6A appears to act synergistically with Cel7A at varying concentrations, resulting in more cellulose hydrolysis by the enzyme mixture than the sum of the two enzymes alone. Further experiments to test three-enzyme cocktails containing each of the previous enzymes indicate that combining all three cellulases increases synergy above that observed for each two-enzyme combination. These data will be used to develop biochemical models to help explain the single-molecule behaviors of these enzymes as they degrade cellulose alone or in concert, as observed using a newly developed SCATTIRSTORM microscope.
