This project aims to enhance the degradation of plant biomass by studying microbial ecosystems and their enzymes. It focuses on uncovering genetic and metabolic traits of uncultured microbes to improve enzyme technology for biomass processing.
Currently available enzyme technology is insufficient to economically degrade plant biomass, and presumably will remain so whilst fundamental questions are inadequately answered, the most evident being: “how do microbes and their enzymes interact with plant cell walls?” Compounding these difficulties is the “cultivability bottleneck”.
The microbes that harbor the answers to these questions are largely irrecoverable in isolate form, which restricts access to their genetic and metabolic machinery.…
