Enzymatic degradation of sulfite-pulped softwoods and the role of LPMOs

Abstract Background Recent advances in the development of enzyme cocktails for degradation of lignocellulosic biomass, especially the discovery of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs), have opened new perspectives for process design and optimization. Softwood biomass is an abundant resource i...
