Application

Application Comment Organism
degradation cellulase is an industrially important enzyme for biomass saccharification at high temperature. beta-Glucan can be completely degraded to glucose at high temperature with a combination of the hyperthermophile Pyrococcus furiosus endocellulase (EGPf) and beta-glucosidase (BGLPf). beta-Glucans are polysaccharides of D-glucose monomers formed by beta(1->3),(1->4) mixed-linkage bonds. They occur most commonly as cellulose in plants, in the bran of cereal grains, the cell wall of baker's yeast, and in certain fungi, mushrooms, and bacteria Pyrococcus furiosus
