Applied and fundamental perspectives on brown-rot decay mechanisms
Hegnar, Olav Aaseth (PhD Thesis;2019:14, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Woody biomass is an important material for the growing bioeconomy, and has gained significant attention as a feedstock for second-generation biorefineries. Wood has traditionally been used as a building material for ... -
Biochemical investigation of catalysis by lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases
Loose, Jennifer Sarah Maria (PhD Thesis;2016:69, Doctoral thesis, 2018-05-04)Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper-dependent enzymes that catalyze the oxidative cleavage of glycosidic bonds in the presence of dioxygen and an external electron donor. Currently, these enzymes are ... -
Discovery and characterization of cellulose-active lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases
Forsberg, Zarah Kristina (PhD Thesis;2014:62, Doctoral thesis, 2014)The efficient depolymerization of lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars by enzymatic hydrolysis is a key step in the transition towards a more environmentally friendly and sustainable bio-economy. However, the ... -
Kinetic investigations of the oxidative cleavage of oligomeric carbohydrates provide novel insights into the catalytic action of fungal lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases
Rieder, Lukas (PhD Thesis;2021:61, Doctoral thesis, 2021)The lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are a recently discovered class of redoxactive mono-copper enzymes that catalyze the oxidative cleavage of glycosidic bonds in recalcitrant plant or chitin-based biomass, ... -
Leveraging H2O2-fuelled activity of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases in cellulase cocktails for improved bioprocessing of lignocellulosic biomass
Hansen, Line Degn (PhD Thesis;2022:29, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Rapid action is critical to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions in order to reach climate targets. Fossil fuel use in high emission sectors like the energy and chemical industry should therefore be reduced and replaced by ... -
Light-driven lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO)-catalyzed solubilization of polysaccharides
Kommedal, Eirik Garpestad (PhD Thesis;2022:38, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are a recently discovered family of enzymes that catalyze oxidative cleavage of glycosidic bonds in insoluble polysaccharides at a liquid-solid interface. These enzymes are ... -
Microbial communities in biogas reactors and their link to stability and performance
Hagen, Live Heldal (PhD Thesis;2016:60, Doctoral thesis, 2020-11-24)The Anaerobic digestion (AD) of organic material gathers a great interest worldwide due to the global needs for waste recycling and renewable energy production. Biogas, the end product of an AD process, is a mixture of ... -
Production of yeast from spruce sugars and hydrolysates of protein-rich by-products as feed ingredient
Lapeña Gómez, David (PhD Thesis;2019:60, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The biotechnological potential and food-grade nature of yeasts are evidenced by their rich history of application in food fermentations. Thus, yeasts have been recognized as a suitable microorganism for the production of ... -
Studies of proteins involved in environmental responses of Enterococcus faecalis V583
Bøhle, Liv Borghild Anette Andreassen (PhD Thesis;2011:58, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Enterococcus faecalis has traditionally been considered a harmless inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tract of mammals. However, in the past decade E. faecalis has become a major cause of infections in hospitalized patients. ... -
Understanding and optimizing the role of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases in enzymatic conversion of lignocellulosic biomass
Østby, Heidi (PhD Thesis;2022:31, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Lignocellulosic biomass holds great potential for production of biofuels and other chemicals traditionally produced from fossil fuels. However, its significant recalcitrance presents a substantial challenge in industrial ...
