Abstract
The current demands for novel and sustainable biotechnological
processes, including new microbial enzymes with industrial
potential are constantly required. As a form to address the growing
need for industrially relevant enzymes, functional screenings of
microorganisms and/or (meta)genome mining techniques have
emerged as powerful strategies for the identification of promising
enzymes to novel or improved industrial processes [1]. Once
enzymes have been well characterized, they can be produced,
studied, and engineered about their biocatalytic, including possible
synergistic activities in multiple protein cocktails. Currently, there
is an increased interest in exploring and exploiting microbial
enzymes for selective degradation of plant biomass. The efforts
are concentrated on the bioconversion of lingo-cellulosic material.
While ample enzymes are nowadays available for the degradation
and modification of the polysaccharide content of plant biomass,
there is a need for effective lignin degrading enzymes.
