Deciphering characteristics of the designer cellulosome from Bacillus subtilis WB800N via enzymatic analysis

open access: yes, 2018
Recombinant Bacillus subtilis WB800N harboring pGETS 118 designer cellulosome genes was applied to the artificial cellulosome production. To investigate the characteristics of cellulosome assembly in the supernatant, three free enzymes clones, i.e ...

Optimizing the composition of a synthetic cellulosome complex for the hydrolysis of softwood pulp: identification of the enzymatic core functions and biochemical complex characterization

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background The development of efficient cellulase blends is a key factor for cost-effectively valorizing biomass in a new bio-economy. Today, the enzymatic hydrolysis of plant-derived polysaccharides is mainly accomplished with fungal cellulases, whereas

Toward Efficient Cellulosic Biomass Breakdown: Enzymatic Innovation and Kinetic Insights

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 6, June 2026.
By combining a processive GH7, CBM2a, and GH3 into single enzyme, the GCG fusion protein effectively breaks down crystalline cellulose. This tri‐domain architecture reduces cellobiose inhibition at the cellulose surface allowing for the simultaneous targeting of the substrate, depolymerization, and removal of products.

Elaborate cellulosome architecture of Acetivibrio cellulolyticus revealed by selective screening of cohesin–dockerin interactions [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2014
Cellulosic waste represents a significant and underutilized carbon source for the biofuel industry. Owing to the recalcitrance of crystalline cellulose to enzymatic degradation, it is necessary to design economical methods of liberating the fermentable ...
