Journal ArticleDOI

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases disrupt the cellulose fibers structure

TL;DR: This work provides the first evidence of the direct oxidative action of LPMOs with the mechanical weakening of the cellulose ultrastructure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-domain flavoenzymes trigger lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases for oxidative degradation of cellulose.

TL;DR: This work investigates the ability of AA3_2 flavoenzymes secreted under lignocellulolytic conditions to trigger oxidative cellulose degradation by AA9 LPMOs and shows that glucose dehydrogenase and aryl-alcohol quinone oxidoreductases are catalytically efficient electron donors for L PMOs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Podospora anserina lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase PaLPMO9H catalyzes oxidative cleavage of diverse plant cell wall matrix glycans.

TL;DR: The ability of PaLPMO9H to target polysaccharides, differing from cellulose by their linkages, glycosidic composition and/or presence of sidechains, could be advantageous for this coprophilous fungus when catabolizing highly variable polysacCharides and for the development of optimized enzyme cocktails in biorefineries.
