All previous theoretical analyses of metabolic costs of lignin biosynthesis used glucose as substrate. |
Straw also requires far fewer chemicals and less energy to produce paper pulp, due to the low amount of lignin in its residue. |
They produce different enzymes that break down lignin and release cellulose and hemicellulose from plants. |
The ability to degrade azo dyes varied between lignin peroxidase isoenzymes and optimum pH for decolorization differed between dyes. |
They oxidize diverse substrates such as membrane sterols, lignin, and cutin as well as hormones. |
Dietary fibre consists of plant material such as cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin, polysaccharides, gums, mucilage and lignin. |
