Project results evaluation
Production of extracellular enzymes relevant for the use in biorefineries was characterised both in the cultures of saprotrophic fungi and in the environmental metagenomes of forest soils. Production of relevant lignin and cellulose-degrading enzymes wasoptimised for selected fungal producers, the enzymes were purified and their biochemical characterization was performed.
