Thermostability in endoglucanases is fold-specific [PDF]

BMC Structural Biology, 2011
Abstract Background Endoglucanases are usually considered to be synergistically involved in the initial stages of cellulose breakdown-an essential step in the bioprocessing of lignocellulosic plant materials into bioethanol.

Thermal Stabilization of an Endoglucanase by Cyclization [PDF]

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2012
An intein-driven protein splicing approach allowed for the covalent linkage between the N- and C-termini of a polypeptide chain to create circular variants of the endo-β-1,3-1,4-glucanase, LicA, from Bacillus licheniformis. Two circular variants, LicA-C1 and LicA-C2, which have connecting loops of 20 and 14 amino acids, respectively, showed catalytic ...

Multivariable parameter optimization for the endoglucanase production by Trichoderma reesei Rut C30 from Ocimum gratissimum seed

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2008
The aim of this study was to evaluate the interaction effects of the physico-chemical parameters on the endoglucanase (CMCase) production by Trichoderma reesei Rut C30 on a cellulosic agro-residue by the solid-state fermentation (SSF) and to determine ...

Fomitopsis meliae CFA 2, a novel brown rot for endoglucanase: emphasis towards enhanced endoglucanase production by statistical approach

Mycology, 2021
Brown rot basidiomycetes are a principal group of wood-decaying fungi which degrade wood cellulose and hemicellulose by the combination of carbohydrate active enzymes and non-enzymatic oxidation reactions.

Biochemical Characterization of a Novel Monospecific Endo-β-1,4-Glucanase Belonging to GH Family 5 From a Rhizosphere Metagenomic Library

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Cellulases have a broad range of different industrial applications, ranging from food and beverages to pulp and paper and the biofuels area. Here a metagenomics based strategy was used to identify the cellulolytic enzyme CelRH5 from the rhizosphere ...

Loop optimization of Trichoderma reesei endoglucanases for balancing the activity–stability trade‐off through cross‐strategy between machine learning and the B‐factor analysis

GCB Bioenergy, 2023
Trichoderma reesei endoglucanases (EGs) have limited industrial applications due to its low thermostability and activity. Here, we aimed to improve the thermostability of EGs from T.

Isolation of a cDNA Encoding a β-1,4-endoglucanase in the Root-Knot Nematode Meloidogyne incognita and Expression Analysis During Plant Parasitism

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
A β-1,4-endoglucanase encoding cDNA (EGases, E.C. 3.2.1.4), named Mi-eng-1, was cloned from Meloidogyne incognita second-stage juveniles (J2). The deduced amino acid sequence contains a catalytic domain and a cellulose-binding domain separated by a ...

Effects of Pretreatment of Single and Mixed Lignocellulosic Substrates on Production of Endoglucanase by Bacillus aerius S5.2

BioResources, 2016
A mixed substrate (MS) comprising oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB), oil palm frond (OPF), and rice husk (RH) was evaluated for endoglucanase production by Bacillus aerius S5.2. Effects of sulphuric acid, sodium hydroxide, N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO)
