Abstract

Thermophiles have several beneficial properties for the conversion of biomass at high temperatures. Thermomyces lanuginosus is a thermophilic filamentous fungus that was shown to secrete 40 glycoside hydrolases and 25 proteases when grown on different carbon sources. Among the 13 identified glycoside hydrolases with high expression levels, 9 were reduced sugar glycosidases (RSGs) belonging to seven GH families, and 7 of the 10 identified proteases were exopeptidases belonging to six different protease families. High expression of RSGs and exopeptidases may allow the fungus to efficiently degrade oligosaccharides and oligopeptides in saprophytic habitats. There were no xylan side chain-degrading enzymes predicted in the genome of T. lanuginosus, and only one thermophilic GH11 xylanase (g4601.t1) and one GH43 xylosidase (g3706.t1) were detected by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry when T. lanuginosus grown on xylan, which led to the accumulation of substituted xylooligosaccharides (SXOS) during corncob xylan degradation where SXOS output made up more than 8% of the total xylan. The SXOS are beneficial prebiotics and important inducers for enzymes secretion of microorganisms. Thus, T. lanuginosus exhibits distinct advantages in utilizing cheap raw materials producing one thermostable xylanase and the high value-added SXOS as well as microbial inoculants to compost by batch fermentation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 September 2018.
All research outputs
#17,991,384
of 23,105,443 outputs
Outputs from Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology
#1,735
of 2,533 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#244,088
of 341,609 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology
#5
of 17 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,105,443 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,533 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.2. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 341,609 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 17 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
