Hemicellulases and auxiliary enzymes for improved conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to monosaccharides

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>High enzyme loading is a major economic bottleneck for the commercial processing of pretreated lignocellulosic biomass to produce fermentable sugars. Optimizing the enzyme cocktail for specific types of pretreated biomass allows for...
