CELLULASE ACTIVATOR AND METHOD FOR SACCHARIFYING LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS BY USING SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to developing and providing a technique for saccharifying a plant biomass, particularly a lignocellulosic biomass efficiently in fewer steps and at low cost while suppressing environmental load, in order to efficiently and effectively use the energy of the plant biomass. Provided are a cellulase activator containing a lignocellulose degradation cofactor consisting of an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 as an active ingredient and a method for saccharifying a lignocellulosic biomass using the cellulase activator.
