Understanding simultaneous lignin depolymerization and catabolism in white-rot fungi

Lead Institution
National Renewable Energy Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Davinia Salvachua Rodriguez
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
Lignin is a heterogeneous aromatic polymer found in the cell walls of terrestrial plants and accounts for 30% of the organic carbon in the biosphere. White-rot fungi (WRF) are unquestionably the most…

Plastic Degrading Microbial Communities from Insect Larvae Guts

Lead Institution
University of Delaware
Principal Investigator
Mark Blenner
Project type
FICUS Research
Insect microbial consortia are attractive platforms for plastics deconstruction and conversion as they degrade plastics more rapidly than microbial isolates and do not require pretreatment. While…
