Perspectives for biocatalytic lignin utilization: cleaving 4-O-5 and Cα–Cβ bonds in dimeric lignin model compounds catalyzed by a promiscuous activity of tyrosinase
In the biorefinery utilizing lignocellulosic biomasses, lignin decomposition to value-added phenolic derivatives is a key issue, and recently biocatalytic delignification is emerging owing to its superior sele...
