Abstract
The genus Aspergillus includes microorganisms that naturally degrade lignocellulosic biomass, secreting large amounts of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), what characterizes their saprophytic lifestyle. Among other CAZymes, ²-xylosidases are glycosyl hydrolases (GHs) that aid in the degradation of plant biomass by releasing xylose from xylooligosaccharides in the complete degradation…
