Catalytic mechanisms and regulation of lignin peroxidase.
Lignin peroxidase (LiP) is a fungal haemoprotein similar to the lignin-synthesizing plant peroxidases, but it has a higher oxidation potential and oxidizes dimethoxylated aromatic compounds to radical cations. It catalyses the degradation of lignin models but in vitro the outcome is net lignin polymerization. LiP oxidizes veratryl alcohol to radical cations which are proposed to act by charge t...
متن کاملBond cleavage of lignin model compounds into aromatic monomers using supported metal catalysts in supercritical water
More efficient use of lignin carbon is necessary for carbon-efficient utilization of lignocellulosic biomass. Conversion of lignin into valuable aromatic compounds requires the cleavage of C-O ether bonds and C-C bonds between lignin monomer units. The catalytic cleavage of C-O bonds is still challenging, and cleavage of C-C bonds is even more difficult. Here, we report cleavage of the aromatic...
متن کاملHigh-throughput Screening of Recalcitrance Variations in Lignocellulosic Biomass: Total Lignin, Lignin Monomers, and Enzymatic Sugar Release.
The conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to fuels, chemicals, and other commodities has been explored as one possible pathway toward reductions in the use of non-renewable energy sources. In order to identify which plants, out of a diverse pool, have the desired chemical traits for downstream applications, attributes, such as cellulose and lignin content, or monomeric sugar release following a...
متن کاملSilencing CHALCONE SYNTHASE in Maize Impedes the Incorporation of Tricin into Lignin and Increases Lignin Content.
Lignin is a phenolic heteropolymer that is deposited in secondary-thickened cell walls, where it provides mechanical strength. A recent structural characterization of cell walls from monocot species showed that the flavone tricin is part of the native lignin polymer, where it is hypothesized to initiate lignin chains. In this study, we investigated the consequences of altered tricin levels on l...
متن کاملStructure and catalytic mechanism of LigI: insight into the amidohydrolase enzymes of cog3618 and lignin degradation.
LigI from Sphingomonas paucimobilis catalyzes the reversible hydrolysis of 2-pyrone-4,6-dicarboxylate (PDC) to 4-oxalomesaconate and 4-carboxy-2-hydroxymuconate in the degradation of lignin. This protein is a member of the amidohydrolase superfamily of enzymes. The protein was expressed in Escherichia coli and then purified to homogeneity. The purified recombinant enzyme does not contain bound ...
