Functional characterization of two AA10 lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases from Cellulomonas gelida
Turunen R, Tuveng T, Forsberg Z, Schiml V, Eijsink V, Arntzen M
Protein Sci
. 2025 Feb;
34(3):e70060.
PMID: 39969139
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are redox enzymes targeting the crystalline region of recalcitrant polysaccharides such as cellulose and chitin. Functional characterization of two LPMOs from the cellulose-degrading soil bacterium Cellulomonas...

FEBS Lett
. 2025 Feb;
PMID: 39912371
Enzymes known as lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are mono-copper polysaccharide-degrading peroxygenases that engage in several on- and off-pathway redox reactions involving O and HO. Herein, we show that the known...
