Physico-chemical oxidative cleavage strategy facilitates the degradation of recalcitrant crystalline cellulose by cellulases hydrolysis

摘要

BackgroundEfficient enzymatic conversion of recalcitrant crystalline cellulose is critical for enabling cost-effective industrial conversion of cellulosic biomass to biofuels and chemicals. Fully understanding enzyme digestion mechanism is paving a new way to design efficient process for biomass conversion. Accordingly, a continuing drive is inspiring to discover new routes to promote crystalline cellulose disruption.
