Journal ArticleDOI

Cellobiose oxidase from phanerochaete chrysosporium can be cleaved by papain into two domains

TL;DR: Cellobiose oxidase from the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has been purified to homogeneity by a new method and the possible role of the enzyme in lignocellulose degradation is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 1,4-β-d-glucan cellobiohydrolases from Phanerochaete chrysosporium. I. A system of synergistically acting enzymes homologous to Trichoderma reesei

TL;DR: It is evident that synergistically acting cellobiohydrolases is a general requirement for efficient hydrolysis of crystalline cellulose by cellulolytic fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 1,4-β-D-glucan glucanohydrolases from Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Re-assessment of their significance in cellulose degradation mechanisms

TL;DR: Strong synergistic action is induced by the enzymes acting in concert with cellobiohydrolases (CBHI and CBHII) from the same organism, indicating a highly effective enzymatic system for cellulose degradation.
Journal Article

Pilot-scale production and purification of the cellulolytic enzyme system from the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium

TL;DR: The fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was grown on a pilot scale in a 100-liter automatic/fermenter and enzyme secretion was followed by continuous HPLC monitoring, yielding a culture filtrate with cellulose-degrading enzymes in a concentration several times higher than those reported from shaken-flask cultures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of multi-domain cellulolytic enzymes by UV-laser induced desorption mass spectrometry

TL;DR: In this article, the application of matrix-assisted UV-laser induced desorption (LID) mass spectrometry for the analysis of some extracellular multi-domain cellulolytic enzymes, in the molecular weight range 5000-90 000 u, produced by the fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Trichoderma reesei, was reported.
