What is Feruloyl Esterases for Food Waste Valorization about?
The study identifies and characterizes the first type D feruloyl esterases (FAEs) from the fungus Schizophyllum commune, which were successfully produced in Pichia pastoris. These enzymes exhibit unique substrate profiles, effectively hydrolyzing benzoic acid esters and releasing hydroxycinnamic acids from food industry side-streams like wheat bran and coffee pulp. The findings suggest their potential application in valorizing agro-industrial waste and enhancing biomass degradation.
