Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Compositions and methods are provided for treating lignocellulosic material with a xylanase enzyme having xylanase activity. The enzyme is stable and active at increased pHs and temperatures. The present invention therefore provides methods for hydrolyzing lignocellulosic material, especially cellulose and hemicellulose, which are major components of the cell wall of non-woody and woody plants. The methods for hydrolyzing cellulose and hemicellulose can be used on any plant, wood or wood product, wood waste, paper pulp, paper product or paper waste or byproduct.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A host cell stably transformed with a nucleic acid construct comprising a promoter operably linked to a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 5 and 9, wherein the cell is a bacterial cell, fungal cell, insect cell, mammalian cell or plant cell, and wherein the promoter is heterologous with respect to the nucleotide sequence.
