6. Degradation of wood polysaccharides by fungal glycoside hydrolases
Abstract : The enzymatic degradation of wood polysaccharides such as cellulose and hemicellulose is an important process in nature. In addition, cellulases and hemicellulases can be used in industrial applications. Fuel ethanol can potentially be produced from wood by enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose followed by yeast fermentation of the formed sugars. READ MORE

7. The kinetics of cellulose enzymatic hydrolysis : Implications of the synergism between enzymes
Abstract : The hydrolysis kinetics of bacterial cellulose and its derivatives by Trichoderma reesei cellulases was studied. The cellulose surface erosion model was introduced to explain the gradual and strong retardation of the rate of enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose. READ MORE

8. Hydrophobic Fusion Tags: Implications For Bioseparation and Cellular Expression
Abstract : The studies in this thesis have shown that the partitioning of endoglucanase I (EGI, Cel7B) from T. reesei could be significantly improved by relatively minor genetic engineering. By adding short peptides composed of tryptophan and proline residues to EGI, extreme partitioning could be obtained. READ MORE

9. The relation between the supramolecular structure of cellulose and its hydrolysability
Abstract : The liberation of fermentable sugars from cellulosic biomass during enzymatic hydrolysis is often incomplete. One of the factors limiting the efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis is the structural properties of cellulose. READ MORE

10. Functional studies and engineering of family 1 carbohydrate-binding modules
Abstract : The family 1 cellulose-binding modules (CBM1) form a groupof small, stable carbohydrate-binding proteins. These modulesare essential for fungal cellulosedegradation. This thesisdescribes both functional studies of the CBM1s as well asprotein engineering of the modules for several objectives. READ MORE
