Fig. 3From: Myceliophthora thermophila Xyr1 is predominantly involved in xylan degradation and xylose catabolismEndo- and exo-acting enzyme activities after 24 h of growth of the wild-type and Δxlr1 strain on lignocellulose related substrates. Strains were grown for 24 h on d-glucose (glc), d-xylose (xyl), l-arabinose (ara), cellobiose (cel), Avicel (avi), wheat arabinoxylan (wax) and birchwood xylan (bx). Total enzyme activities were measured in culture filtrate samples as described in “Materials and Methods”. One unit of activity is defined as 1 µmol pNP (or azo dye) released from the substrate per minute per mL culture filtrateBack to article page
