Diagrammatic representation of the potential mechanisms behind AA9 induced fiber modification. The C1 or C4 oxidation of cellulose via AA9 oxidative cleavage introduces carboxyl groups and/or enhances the hydrogen bonding network of the cellulose fiber, respectively. EG: endoglucanase; AA9: lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase auxiliary activity family 9 enzyme.
