From cellulosomes to cellulosomics

The Chemical Record, 2008
AbstractCellulosomes are intricate multienzyme systems produced by several cellulolytic bacteria, the first example of which was discovered in the anaerobic thermophilic bacterium, Clostridium thermocellum. Cellulosomes are designed for efficient degradation of plant cell wall polysaccharides, notably cellulose—the most abundant renewable polymer on ...

Cellulosomes—Structure and Ultrastructure

Journal of Structural Biology, 1998
The cellulosome is a macromolecular machine, whose components interact in a synergistic manner to catalyze the efficient degradation of cellulose. The cellulosome complex is composed of numerous kinds of cellulases and related enzyme subunits, which are assembled into the complex by virtue of a unique type of scaffolding subunit (scaffoldin).

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.

The Clostridium cellulovorans Cellulosome

Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 1994
The Clostridium cellulovorans cellulosome is comprised of a large, nonenzymatic scaffolding protein called the cellulose binding protein A (CbpA) and a number of endoglucanases/xylanases. The CbpA contains several functional domains, including a signal peptide, a cellulose binding domain (CBD), a hydrophilic domain (HLD) present four times, and a ...

Cellulose, cellulases and cellulosomes

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 1998
The structural complexity and rigidity of cellulosic substrates have given rise to a phenomenal diversity of degradative enzymes--the cellulases. Cellulolytic microorganisms produce a wide variety of different catalytic and noncatalytic enzyme modules, which form the cellulases and act synergistically on their substrate. In some microbes, several types

The rosettazyme: A synthetic cellulosome

Journal of Biotechnology, 2009
Cellulose is an attractive feedstock for biofuel production because of its abundance, but the cellulose polymer is extremely stable and its constituent sugars are difficult to access. In nature, extracellular multi-enzyme complexes known as cellulosomes are among the most effective ways to transform cellulose to useable sugars.
