Genomic analysis, identification and characterization of lignin degradation pathway and biofuel production by the Gram-positive bacterium Paenibacillus polymyxa CR1.

从木质纤维生物质中提取的生物燃料有望成为更清洁和可再生的能源和化学品的替代来源。然而，脱木素或木质素分解是生物燃料和生物炼油的瓶颈。因此，了解木质素在细菌中的降解途径、生物燃料的产生及其调控机制是非常重要的。作为我旨在开发可持续农业和环境新战略的研究计划的一部分，我的实验室最近确定了

Biofuels derived from lignocellulosic biomass hold promise as alternative sources of cleaner and renewable energy and chemicals. However, delignification or lignin decomposition is a bottleneck for biofuel and biorefinery. Therefore, it is very important to understand lignin degrading pathways, biofuel production and their regulatory mechanisms in bacteria. As part of my research program aiming at developing novel strategies for sustainable agriculture and environment, my lab recently characterized
