Fungal Assisted Valorisation of Polymeric Lignin: Mechanism, Enzymes and Perspectives

Lignocellulose is considered one of the significant recalcitrant materials and also difficult to break down because its complex structure. Different microbes such as bacteria fungi are responsible for breaking these lignin structures. This article discussed briefly lignin-degrading their critical steps involved in depolymerization. In addition, regarded ideal microorganism degradation highly effective hydrolytic oxidative enzyme systems breakdown lignocellulosic materials. The white rot fungi, mainly belonging basidiomycetes, main degrader among various microorganisms. could be achieved presence lignolytic enzymes laccases, peroxidases, manganese peroxidases. significance enzyme’s role depolymerization, along with mechanism chemical pathways, emphasized this article.
