AbstractLignocellulosic biomass is an abundant renewable feedstock, but its complex structure of lignocellulose poses barriers to its enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. Fungi possess diverse lignocellulolytic enzyme systems that synergistically deconstruct lignocellulose into soluble sugars for fermentation. This review elucidates recent advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms underpinning fungal degradation of lignocellulose. We analyze major enzyme classes tailored by fungi to depolymerize cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. ...

Biomass contains complex sugars and aromatic polymers that have the potential to serve as sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels and chemicals. Fungi possess specialized enzyme systems capable of breaking down lignocellulose into fermentable building blocks. This review analyses recent advancements in intricate fungal decomposition toolkits, shedding light on how combinations of oxidative, hydrolytic, and auxiliary enzymes work together. Exciting opportunities, such as advanced pretreatments, high‐throughput enzyme engineering, and enzyme op...
