Unraveling the roles of the reductant and free copper ions in LPMO kinetics
Background: Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are monocopper enzymes that catalyze oxidative depolymerization of industrially relevant crystalline polysaccharides, such as cellulose, in a reaction that depends on an electron donor and O2 or H2O2. While it is well known that LPMOs can utili...
