Microbial expansins with different modular structure were shown to increase interfibrillar spacing of cellulose microfibers and performance of enzymes that act on fiber surfaces. This study uncovers new possibilities for biocatalysts to create value-added materials from cellulosic biomass

Here we show the potential of loosenin proteins to enhance the enzymatic deconstruction of wood fiber. This work can aid the development of cost-effective technologies for biofuel and biochemical production from renewable resources
