Improvement in catalytic activity and thermostability of a GH10 xylanase and its synergistic degradation of biomass with cellulase

Abstract Background Xylanase is one of the most extensively used biocatalysts for biomass degradation. However, its low catalytic efficiency and poor thermostability limit its applications. Therefore, improving the properties of xylanases to enable synergistic degradation of lignocellulosic biomass...
