Cloning, expression in <it>Pichia pastoris</it>, and characterization of a thermostable GH5 mannan endo-1,4-<it>β</it>-mannosidase from <it>Aspergillus niger </it>BK01

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Mannans are key components of lignocellulose present in the hemicellulosic fraction of plant primary cell walls. Mannan endo-1,4-β-mannosidases (1,4-β-<smcaps>D</smcaps>-mannanases) catalyze the random hydrolysis of β-1,4...
