Microbial Cellulases: An Overview and Applications
Cellulases are a complex group of enzymes which are secreted by a broad range of microorganisms including fungi, bacteria, and actinomycetes. In the natural environment, synergistic interactions among cellulolytic microorganisms play an important role in

There are two types of processive cellulases, exocellulases and processive endoglucanases. There are also two classes of exocellulases, ones that attack the reducing ends of cellulose chains and ones that attack the nonreducing ends. There are a number of ways of assaying processivity but none of them are ideal.

Cellulase of Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Mycelia and ungerminated conidia of Neurospora crassa were found to secrete extracellular endocellulase (EC 3.2.1.4). A simple induction system of potassium phosphate buffer (ph 6.0) plus inducer relied on the internal metabolic reserves of conicia or mycelia to provide energy and substrates for protein synthesis.

Convergent evolution of processivity in bacterial and fungal cellulases
Significance Some cellulases exhibit “processivity”: the ability to degrade crystalline cellulose through successive hydrolytic catalytic reactions without the release of the enzyme from the substrate surface.

Background An efficient hydrolysis of lignocellulosic substrates to soluble sugars for biofuel production necessitates the interplay and synergistic interaction of multiple enzymes. An optimized enzyme mixture is crucial for reduced cost of the enzymatic

Cellulase, Clostridia, and Ethanol [PDF]
SUMMARY Biomass conversion to ethanol as a liquid fuel by the thermophilic and anaerobic clostridia offers a potential partial solution to the problem of the world's dependence on petroleum for energy. Coculture of a cellulolytic strain and a saccharolytic strain of Clostridium on ...

The Production of Fungal Mannanase, Cellulase and Xylanase Using Palm Kernel Meal as a Substrate
Extracellular enzymes including mannanase, cellulase and xylanase from Aspergillus wentii TISTR 3075, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, Trichoderma reesei TISTR 3080 and Penicillium sp. were investigated.

Significant enzymatic activities in the residues hydrolysis of the sugar cane harvest
In the production of ethanol from agroindustrial crop residues, one of the critical stages in the process is the conversion of lignocellulosic material to simple sugars, which can be done chemically or enzymatically.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is one of the most common commercial crops and the world’s main source of fodder production. However, fields that are sown with Alfalfa often remain 1/4 empty since only 30 - 40% of sown seeds germinate, resulting in sparse ...
