Summary: Harnessing fungi's enzymatic ability to break down lignocellulolytic biomass to produce ethanol more efficiently and cost-effectively has become a significant research and industrial interest. Fungi and Lignocellulosic Biomass provides readers with a broad range of information on the uses and untapped potential of fungi in the production of bio-based fuels. With information on the molecular biological and genomic aspects of fungal degradation of plant cell walls to the industrial production and application of key fungal enzymes, chapters in the book cover topics such as enzymology of cellulose, hemicelluloses, and lignin degradation. Edited by a leading researcher in the field, Fungi and Lignocellulosic Biomass will be a valuable tool in advancing the development and production of biofuels and a comprehensive resource for fungal biologists, enzymologists, protein chemists, biofuels chemical engineers, and other research and industry professionals in the field of biomass research.Summary: Intro -- Fungi and Lignocellulosic Biomass -- Contents -- Preface -- 1 The Plant Biomass -- 1.1 The Structure of Plant Cell Wall -- 1.2 Chemical and Physicochemical Properties of the Major Plant Cell Wall Constituents -- 1.2.1 Cellulose -- 1.2.2 Pectin -- 1.2.3 Hemicelluloses -- 1.2.4 Lignin -- 1.3 Abundant Sources of Carbohydrate Polymers and Their Monomer Composition -- 1.3.1 Agricultural Wastes -- 1.3.2 Forest Product Residues -- 1.3.3 Energy Crops -- 1.3.4 Weedy Lignocellulosic Substrates -- 1.4 Biosynthesis of Plant Cell Wall Polymers -- 1.4.1 Cellulose -- 1.4.2 Hemicellulose Biosynthesis -- 1.4.3 Pectin Biosynthesis -- 1.4.4 Lignin Biosynthesis -- 1.5 Strategies for Manipulating Wall Composition -- 1.5.1 Manipulation of Plant Cell Wall Polymer Composition -- 1.5.2 Manipulation of Plant Lignin Content -- 2 The Actors: Plant Biomass Degradation by Fungi -- 2.1 Ecological Perspectives -- 2.2 The Major Three Mechanisms of Lignocellulose Degradation by Fungi -- 2.2.1 White Rot -- 2.2.2 Brown Rot Fungi -- 2.2.3 Soft Rot Fungi -- 2.3 Plant Cell Wall Degradation by Plant Pathogenic Fungi -- 2.4 Anaerobic Fungi -- 3 The Tools-Part 1: Enzymology of Cellulose Degradation -- 3.1 General Properties and Classification of Enzymes That Hydrolyze Polysaccharides -- 3.2 Fungal Cellulolytic Enzymes -- 3.2.1 Cellulose-Binding Domains -- 3.2.2 Cellobiohydrolases (EC 3.2.1.91) -- 3.2.3 Endo-β-1,4-Glucanases (EC 3.2.1.4) -- 3.2.4 β-1,4-Glucosidases -- 3.3 Nonenzymatic Proteins Involved in Cellulose Hydrolysis -- 3.3.1 GH61 Proteins -- 3.3.2 Swollenin -- 4 The Tools-Part 2: Enzymology of Hemicellulose Degradation -- 4.1 Xyloglucan Hydrolysis -- 4.2 Degradation of the Xylan Backbone -- 4.2.1 GH10 Xylanases -- 4.2.2 GH11 Xylanase -- 4.2.3 GH30 Glucuronoxylan Xylanohydrolases -- 4.2.4 GH3 β-Xylosidases -- 4.2.5 GH43 β-Xylosidases -- 4.2.6 GH54 β-Xylosidases.PPN: PPN: 809726181Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-30-PAD | ZDB-30-PQE
