[21]. This concept was later expanded upon by Holade et al. to enable multistep
oxidation of a broad range of (oligo)saccharides. In the follow-up work, cellobiose
dehydrogenase was replaced with a broad glucose oxidase (bGOx) capable of oxidizing the anomeric carbon of galactose, lactose, maltose, cellobiose, and xylose in
addition to glucose. Therefore, the combination of PDH and bGOx was capable of
extracting up to six electrons per molecule of fuel in a complex mixture of (oligo)
saccharides [22]. While deep glucose oxidation remains an area of extreme interest
for bioenergy conversion, several interesting lessons have been learned recently in
attempts to utilize glycerol as a fuel source.
