Interaction of cellulolytic enzymes with fungal cell wall polysaccharides
2025 - IRG/WP 25-11071
Wood rotting fungi are the primary agents responsible for the decomposition of wood in natural environments. These fungi secrete a variety of enzymes to degrade the chemically and structurally resistant components of the wood cell wall. Some of these enzymes possess a carbohydrate-binding module (CBM), which enhances enzymatic efficiency by increasing their affinity to the substrate. Previously, w...

Physiological characterization of a key enzyme involved in gaseous COS assimilation in the filamentous fungus Trichoderma harzianum
2025 - IRG/WP 25-11072
Filamentous fungi are among the primary organisms responsible for the biological deterioration of wood, including wood decay and surface contamination. Therefore, understanding their physiological mechanisms is important for developing effective wood preservation strategies. Most physiological studies on filamentous fungi have focused on the metabolism of major elements, such as carbon in the form...
