Lignocellulose degradation in bacteria and fungi: cellulosomes and industrial relevance.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Lignocellulose biomass is one of the most abundant resources for sustainable biofuels. However, scaling up the biomass-to-biofuels conversion process for widespread usage is still pending. One of the main bottlenecks is the high cost of enzymes used in key process of biomass degradation. Current research efforts are therefore targeted at creative solutions to improve the feasibility of lignocellulosic-degrading enzymes. One way is to engineer multi-enzyme complexes that mimic the bacterial cellulosomal system, known to increase degradation efficiency up to 50-fold when compared to freely-secreted enzymes. However, these designer cellulosomes are instable and less efficient than wild type cellulosomes. In this review, we aim to extensively analyze the current knowledge on the lignocellulosic-degrading enzymes through three aspects. We start by reviewing and comparing sets of enzymes in bacterial and fungal lignocellulose degradation. Next, we focus on the characteristics of cellulosomes in both systems and their feasibility to be engineered. Finally, we highlight three key strategies to enhance enzymatic lignocellulose degradation efficiency: discovering novel lignocellulolytic species and enzymes, bioengineering enzymes for improved thermostability, and structurally optimizing designer cellulosomes. We anticipate these insights to act as resources for the biomass community looking to elevate the usage of lignocellulose as biofuel.
