This book provides a comprehensive exploration of Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZymes) in addressing the climate crisis where the biotechnological advances in utilizing this diverse enzyme group for climate change mitigation have been examined. An overview of the CAZymes from their sources, structure, diversity, biological significance, and potential for alleviating climate change have been discussed. It further examines the use of CAZymes in sustainable practices for their application in various sectors from food and agriculture to textile and pharmaceutical industries as well as medicine and combating climate change.

  • Provides a detailed analysis of CAZymes for their structural and functional diversity
  • Reviews the application of CAZymes in biorefineries for the generation of biofuel and value-added products
  • Discusses other applications of CAZymes in agriculture and industrial sectors as biological replacements for harmful chemicals
  • Addresses the role of the CAZymes in mitigating climate change
  • Explains climate change with respect to the various causes and the evidence

This book is aimed at researchers in bioengineering, enzymology, and carbohydrates.

Anil Kumar Verma is the principal editor of the proposed book with expertise in the field of sustainable energy and biorefineries-based application of carbohydrate-active enzymes from lignocellulosic waste. He completed his PhD in May 2015 from the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati Assam. The PhD thesis work focused on the carbohydrate-active enzyme glucuronoxylan xylanohydrolase from Clostridium thermocellum. After completing his PhD, he received a prestigious DST-SERB National Post-Doctoral Fellowship (N-PDF) grant and joined The Energy and Resource Institute (TERI, New Delhi). He worked as Principal Investigator (PI) on a project, "Molecular cloning, biochemical characterization and structural and functional investigation of novel carbohydrate-active enzymes." During the N-PDF fellowship, he was selected as an assistant professor at Central University Sikkim, where he teaches industrial microbiology and instrumentation as a course subject. He has supervised 20 MSc dissertations and 3 PhDs (microbiology) are in progress. He has published around 51 publications with a cumulative impact factor of more than 60 in peer-reviewed journals and 435 citations with an h-index of 11.
