The H2O2-dependent activity of a fungal lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase investigated with a turbidimetric assay
Abstract Background Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper-dependent redox enzymes that cleave recalcitrant biopolymers such as cellulose, chitin, starch and hemicelluloses. Although LPMOs receive ample interest in industry and academia, their reaction mechanism is not yet fully unde...
