Enzymes which decompose lignin:

Scientists have synthesized a family of enzymes (included in the system of cytochrome P450) that breaks down lignin into components. This will lead to the future use of lignin for the production of various valuable chemical products such as, nylon, bioplastics, carbon fiber. The use of these enzymes will also reduce dependence on hydrocarbons in the production of everyday goods.
