Biomass is a key player in advancing sustainable biorefineries, addressing environmental issues, enhancing energy security, and stimulating economic growth. Recently, researchers at the Excellent Center of Enzyme Technology and Microbial Utilization (ExCETMU), KMUTT, sought a microorganism capable of using non-treated oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) to produce enzymes and valuable substances. They discovered strain EW123, a novel species within the 𝘊𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘶𝘭𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘴 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘶𝘴, which efficiently degraded OPEFB. Further study revealed EW123 as 𝘊𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘶𝘭𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘴 𝘱𝘢𝘭𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢 EW123, with whole-genome sequencing unveiling its metabolic pathways and functional enzymes. Notably, the enzyme cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) stood out, facilitating the production of valuable oxidative products with diverse applications across various industries, showcasing EW123’s potential for revolutionary advancements.
