Application and Molecular Modification of Enzyme in Textile Degumming.
Review in Applied biochemistry and biotechnology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This review comprehensively examines the application and molecular modification of enzymes in the textile degumming of plant-based natural fibers. Traditional chemical and physical degumming methods are energy-intensive and environmentally detrimental, having negative impact on fibers' mechanical properties and performance. In contrast, enzymatic degumming, utilizing biocatalysts such as pectinases, xylanases, mannanases, and laccases, offers a promising eco-friendly solution due to its specificity, mild conditions, and minimal fiber damage. However, the widespread industrial adoption of enzymatic degumming is hindered by inherent limitations of native enzymes, including poor thermal stability, narrow pH adaptability, and low tolerance to industrial process conditions. To address these challenges, enzyme molecular modification has emerged as a transformative strategy. This review outlines the structure and gum composition of representative bast fibers and details the types, mechanisms, and synergistic actions of key degumming enzymes. It provides an in-depth analysis of advanced enzyme engineering technologies, including directed evolution, rational and semi-rational design, computational-aided methods, and AI-driven approaches, with specific case studies on their application to optimize these enzymes. For instance, engineered pectate lyase V52A showed significantly improved activity and thermostability, while the xylanase Q130K/E195K showed a 9.40‑fold longer pH half‑life and a 2.55‑fold higher specific activity than the wild type. Despite significant progress, current challenges persist, such as insufficient multi-factorial industrial adaptability of engineered enzymes, the complexity of fiber-specific gum structures, high production costs, and underdeveloped industrial application systems. Future prospects lie in integrating multi-technological approaches for precise enzyme engineering, in-depth exploration of gum-enzyme interactions, optimization of fermentation processes, and the development of intelligent, integrated degumming systems. This work aims to provide theoretical support and technical references to advance the industrialization of enzymatic degumming for sustainable textile processing.
