3.1.1.73 | agriculture |
targeted FAEA expression is an effective strategy for improving wall digestibility in Festuca and, potentially, other grass species used for fodder or cellulosic ethanol production |
682317 |
3.1.1.73 | biofuel production |
Ferulic acid esterases effectively degrade corn fiber and release substantial amounts of ferulic acid and sugars (e.g., glucose and xylose) in the incubation medium. |

3.1.1.73 | biofuel production |
The biorefining of crop components, such as starch, grain fiber, and crop residues to fermentable substrates for the production of high-value products, such as ethanol and butanol, provides a source of renewable energy |

3.1.1.73 | biotechnology |
ability of the enzyme to be active in alkaline pH may be advantageous in biotechnological applications and especially in the treatment of alkaline woodpulp |

3.1.1.73 | biotechnology |
chimeric enzyme FaeA/Aspergillus kawachii family 42 carbohydrate-binding module as an innovative enzymatic tool for biotechnological applications and biotransformation of plant biomass |

3.1.1.73 | biotechnology |
enhancement of FAE activity in the small intestine and the colon by using orally ingested microencapsulated FAE-producing lactic acid bacteria. Microencapsulation renders the potentially beneficial product of FAE de-esterification, namely ferulic acid, more bioavailable while at the same time avoiding the problems associated with oral administration of free bacterial cells. The released ferulic acid by FAE may well prove to have several chemopreventive effects in chronic diseases. This approach may also be useful in the industrial production of ferulic acid for use in the food industry |

3.1.1.73 | degradation |
addition of a crude enzyme supernatant from high xylanase producing actinomycete strain Kitasatospora sp. ID06-480 and ethyl ferulate producing actinomycete strain Nonomuraea sp. ID06-094 to sugarcane bagasse hydrolysis with low-level loading of commercial enzyme Cellic® CTec2 enhances both the released amount of glucose and reducing sugars. High conversion yield of glucose from cellulose at 60.5% can be achieved after 72 h of saccharification |

3.1.1.73 | degradation |
capable of decolourising effluent from the paper industry, potential application in obtaining ferulic acid from agriculture waste materials produced by milling, brewing and sugar industries |
-, 208309, 208311 |
3.1.1.73 | degradation |
enzyme acts synergistically with commercial xylanase by improving the release of xylooligosaccharides from wheat arabinoxylan |
