Crystal structure of a fungal chimeric cellobiohydrolase Cel6A

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23404363

Function

[GUX6_HUMIN] Plays a central role in the recycling of plant biomass. The biological conversion of cellulose to glucose generally requires three types of hydrolytic enzymes: (1) Endoglucanases which cut internal beta-1,4-glucosidic bonds; (2) Exocellobiohydrolases that cut the dissaccharide cellobiose from the non-reducing end of the cellulose polymer chain; (3) Beta-1,4-glucosidases which hydrolyze the cellobiose and other short cello-oligosaccharides to glucose.[1]
