Enzymatic cocktails produced by Fusarium graminearum under submerged fermentation using different lignocellulosic biomasses.

Fusarium graminearum was grown on four lignocellulosic substrates (corn cobs, wheat bran, hop cell walls, and birchwood) and glucose as the sole carbon source. Proteomic studies performed on the resulting enzymatic cocktails highlighted a great diversity in the number and type of proteins secreted. The cell wall-degrading enzymes (CWDE) proportion varied greatly from 20% to 69%.

Product patterns of a feruloyl esterase from Aspergillus nidulans on large feruloyl-arabino-xylo-oligosaccharides from wheat bran.

A purified feruloyl esterase (EC 3.1.1.

Impact of epiphytic and endogenous enzyme activities of senescent maize leaves and roots on the soil biodegradation process.

This study was focused on investigating the role of the initial residue community, i.e. microorganisms and enzymes from the epiphytic and endophytic compartments, in soil decomposition processes.

Combination of ammonia and xylanase pretreatments: impact on enzymatic xylan and cellulose recovery from wheat straw.

Soaking in aqueous ammonia (SSA) and/or xylanase pretreatments were developed on wheat straw. Both pretreatments were conducted at high-solids conditions: 15% and 20%, respectively, for SSA and xylanase pretreatments. SSA pretreatment led to the solubilisation of 38%, 12% and 11% of acid insoluble lignin, xylan and glucan, respectively.

Probing the cell wall heterogeneity of micro-dissected wheat caryopsis using both active and inactive forms of a GH11 xylanase.

The external envelope of wheat grain (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Isengrain) is a natural composite whose tissular and cellular heterogeneity constitute a significant barrier for enzymatic cell wall disassembly.
