pc 002839a - PROCESS FOR TREATMENT OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC PULP
PC The invention comprises a xylanase, a corresponding recombinant DNA sequence, a vector, a transformed host, a method for production of the xylanase, an agent containing the xylanase, and a use of the agent.
Xylan, a major component of plant hemicellulose, is a polymer of D-xylose linked by β-1,4-xylosidic bonds. Xylan can be degraded to xylose and xylooligomers by acid or enzymatic hydrolysis. Enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan produces free sugars without the by-products formed with acid (e.g. furans).
