| Activities in Family | AA14 proteins are copper-dependent lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs); cleavage of xylan with oxidation of C-1 has been demonstrated for two AA14 LPMOs from Trametes coccinea (Pycnoporus coccineus); lytic xylan monooxygenase / xylan oxidase (glycosidic bond-cleaving) (EC 1.14.99.-) |
