Cellulose is a heterogeneous polysaccharide, and its enzymatic hydrolysis requires endoglucanase, exoglucanase (cellobiohydrolase), and beta-glucosidase to work together. We summarize the most commonly used assays for individual enzymes and cellulase mixture.

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2009
There is a major international effort to develop renewable alternatives to fossil fuels. One approach is to produce a liquid fuel by enzymatically hydrolyzing carbohydrate polymers in biomass to sugars and fermenting them to ethanol. Cellulose is the main polymer in biomass and cellulases can hydrolyze it to cellobiose, which can be converted to ...

One of nature’s most important biological processes is the degradation of lignocellulosic materials into carbon dioxide, water and humic substances. The strong wood-degrading capability of fungi depends, in part, upon the organization of their hyphae, which gives the organisms a penetrating capacity.

Cellulase is an enzyme playing a crucial role in biotechnology industries ranging from textile to biofuel because of tremendous amount of cellulose produced in plant. In order to improve cellulase productivity, huge resource has been spent in search for good cellulases from microorganism in remote areas and in creation of ideal cellulase by engineering.

THERE are only a few reports of enzymes from higher plants which can hydrolyse cellulose or water-soluble cellulose derivatives. Several reports show that malt extracts are capable of hydrolysing water-soluble cellulose derivatives1,3,11 and dispersed cellulose fibres1,7.

Visualizing cellulase activity
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2013AbstractCommercial exploitation of lignocellulose for biotechnological production of fuels and commodity chemicals requires efficient—usually enzymatic—saccharification of the highly recalcitrant insoluble substrate. A key characteristic of cellulose conversion is that the actual hydrolysis of the polysaccharide chains is intrinsically entangled with ...

Deactivation of cellulases by phenols
Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2011Pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials may result in the release of inhibitors and deactivators of cellulose enzyme hydrolysis. We report the identification of phenols with major inhibition and/or deactivation effect on enzymes used for conversion of cellulose to ethanol.
