Nature Communications, 9, Article 756. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-03142-xThermobia domestica belongs to an ancient group of insects and has a remarkable ability to digest crystalline cellulose without microbial assistance. By investigating the digestive proteome of Thermobia, we have identified over 20 members of an uncha...

E., Labourel, A., Herpoël-Gimbert, I., Grisel, S., Haon, M., Lenfant, N., Rogniaux, H., Ropartz, D., Davies, G. J., Rosso, M.-N., Walton, P. H., …Berrin, J.-G. (2018). Lytic xylan oxidases from wood-decay fungi unlock biomass degradation. Nature Chemical Biology, 14(3), 306-310. https://doi.org/10.1038/nchembio.2558Wood biomass is the most abundant feedstock envisioned for the development of modern biorefineries. However, the cost-effective conversion of this form of biomass into commodity products is limited by its resistance to enzymatic degradation. Here we...
