The eLignin Microbial Database: a resource for studying microbial lignin degradation
Year: 2026
Type: software
Abstract: The eLignin Microbial Database brings together the existing literature on microbial lignin catabolism into a single searchable platform, to facilitate an overview of the field and generate new connections between different aspects of the molecular biology of lignin- and aromatic catabolism in nature. This repository is a refactoring of the original eLignin dataset into an open-source, single-container Django application, with the curated data released as open, human-readable flat files.
