Lignin is a ubiquitous, extremely complex biopolymer found in plant cells. It is the most recalcitrant part of the cell wall, and only a few organisms possess the machinery necessary for its degradation. As a result, a huge proportion of the earth's biomass resources are trapped in a highly degradation resistant lignin matrix. To make these resources viable for energy and chemical needs, lignin must be broken down to separate the chemical components of biomass.
