Deglycosylation of cellulosomal enzyme enhances cellulosome assembly in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Journal of Biotechnology, 2012
We have estimated the effects of hyper-mannosylation of dockerin-type cellulase on cellulosome assembly by using Saccharomyces cerevisiae and 44 protein glycosylation mutants, because the heterologous protein displayed on yeast is assumed to be modified by yeast-specific hyper-mannosylation.

Nanoscale Engineering of Designer Cellulosomes

Advanced Materials, 2016
Biocatalysts showcase the upper limit obtainable for high‐speed molecular processing and transformation. Efforts to engineer functionality in synthetic nanostructured materials are guided by the increasing knowledge of evolving architectures, which enable controlled molecular motion and precise molecular recognition.

The cellulosome — A treasure-trove for biotechnology

Trends in Biotechnology, 1994
The cellulases of many cellulolytic bacteria are organized into discrete multienzyme complexes, called cellulosomes. The multiple subunits of cellulosomes are composed of numerous functional domains, which interact with each other and with the cellulosic substrate.

Carbohydrate Depolymerization by Intricate Cellulosomal Systems

2023
Cellulosomes are multi-enzymatic nanomachines that have been fine-tuned through evolution to efficiently deconstruct plant biomass. Integration of cellulosomal components occurs via highly ordered protein-protein interactions between the various enzyme-borne dockerin modules and the multiple copies of the cohesin modules located on the scaffoldin ...

Cellulosomes: Highly Efficient Cellulolytic Complexes

2020
Cellulosomes are elaborate multienzyme complexes capable of efficiently deconstructing lignocellulosic substrates, produced by cellulolytic anaerobic microorganisms, colonizing a large variety of ecological niches. These macromolecular structures have a modular architecture and are composed of two main elements: the cohesin-bearing scaffoldins, which ...

Cellulosome and noncellulosomal cellulases of Clostridium cellulovorans

Extremophiles, 1998
This paper reviews the properties of the cellulosome and noncellulosome cellulases produced by Clostridium cellulovorans, an anaerobic, mesophilic, spore-forming microorganism that produces copious amounts of cellulase. The three major subunits of the cellulosome, CbpA, exoglucanase S (ExgS), and P100, are described, as well as the properties of the ...

The Cellulosome of Clostridium thermocellum

1988
Publisher Summary The accelerated interest in microbial cellulases stems from their potential industrial application. This area is an excellent example in which basic and applied science are closely interlinked: the better understood the mechanism of cellulase action; the better can be the applicative value as a biotechnological process. This chapter

THE CELLULOSOME: The Exocellular Organelle of Clostridium

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1993
The cellulolytic enzyme complex of the anaerobic thermophile Clostridium thermocellum is reviewed. This complex, called the cellulosome, is cell associated and has a mass of from 2 x 10(6) to 6.5 x 10(6) Daltons. It consists of from 14 to 26 different polypeptides.

Carbohydrate Depolymerization by Intricate Cellulosomal Systems

2017
Cellulosomes are multi-enzymatic nanomachines that have been fine-tuned through evolution to efficiently deconstruct plant biomass. Integration of cellulosomal components occurs via highly ordered protein-protein interactions between the various enzyme-borne dockerin modules and the multiple copies of the cohesin modules located on the scaffoldin ...

Insights into enhanced thermostability of a cellulosomal enzyme

Carbohydrate Research, 2014
Improved stability of cellulosomal enzymes is of great significance in order to provide efficient degradation of cellulosic derivatives for production of biofuels. In previous reports, we created a quadruple mutant of the endoglucanase Cel8A from Clostridium thermocellum resulting from a combination of both random error-prone PCR and a bioinformatics ...
