NOVEL FUNGAL ENZYMES

摘要

This invention relates to novel enzymes and novel methods for producing the same. More specifically this invention relates to a variety of fungal enzymes. Nucleic acid molecules encoding such enzymes, compositions, recombinant and genetically modified host cells, and methods of use are described. The invention also relates to a method to convert lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars with enzymes that degrade the lignocellulosic material and novel combinations of enzymes, including those that provide a synergistic release of sugars from plant biomass. The invention also relates to a method to release cellular content by degradation of cell walls. The invention also relates to methods to use the novel enzymes and compositions of such enzymes to improve digestability of animal feed and in a variety of other processes, including food and beverage processing, baking, washing of clothing, detergent processes, biorefming, deinking and biobleaching of paper and pulp, and treatment of waste streams.
