Enhanced Microbial Utilization of Recalcitrant Cellulose by an Ex Vivo Cellulosome-Microbe Complex
A cellulosome-microbe complex was assembled ex vivo on the surface of Bacillus subtilis displaying a miniscaffoldin that can bind with three dockerin-containing cellulase components: the endoglucanase Cel5, the processive endoglucanase Cel9, and the ...

The development of cellulases cocktails to efficiently solubilize cellulose for biotechnological applications is a constant demand. Cellulases exhibit diverse mode of action, operating in the free state or in multi-enzyme complexes (cellulosomes), and potentially acting synergistically for a higher efficiency.

Cellulosomics of the cellulolytic thermophile Clostridium clariflavum [PDF]
Clostridium clariflavum is an anaerobic, thermophilic, Gram-positive bacterium, capable of growth on crystalline cellulose as a single carbon source. The genome of C. clariflavum has been sequenced to completion, and numerous cellulosomal genes were identified, including putative scaffoldin and enzyme subunits.Bioinformatic analysis of the C ...

Impact of scaffoldin mechanostability on cellulosomal activity
A low mechanostability cohesin between the two cellulosomal anchoring points lowers saccharification activity (top), in contrast to alternative configurations (bottom).

Abstract Cellulosomes are multi‐enzyme assemblies whose catalytic efficiency depends on the spatial organization of their components. However, their pronounced conformational flexibility has precluded quantitative characterization of inter‐enzyme distances and overall topology.

The Cellulosome Paradigm in An Extreme Alkaline Environment
Rapid decomposition of plant biomass in soda lakes is associated with microbial activity of anaerobic cellulose-degrading communities. The alkaliphilic bacterium, Clostridium alkalicellulosi, is the single known isolate from a soda lake that demonstrates cellulolytic activity.

Organization and distribution of the cellulosome in Clostridium thermocellum [PDF]
The properties of the cellulosome (the cellulose-binding, multicellulase-containing protein complex) in Clostridium thermocellum were examined by comparing the cellulase systems derived from the wild type and an adherence-defective mutant. The growth conditions--specifically, growth either on cellulose (Avicel) or on cellobiose as insoluble or soluble ...

Toward Efficient Cellulosic Biomass Breakdown: Enzymatic Innovation and Kinetic Insights
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.
