The rumen bacterium Cellulosilyticum ruminicola H1 efficiently hydrolyzes cellulose. To gain insights into the regulatory mechanisms of cellulase synthesis, comparative transcriptome analysis was conducted for cultures grown on 2% filter paper, 0.5 and 0.

Designer Glycolysomes: Colocalisation of Glycolytic Enzymes on a Cellulosome-Based Synthetic Protein Scaffold. [PDF]
The first three Escherichia coli glycolytic enzymes were converted to the docking enzyme mode and subsequently scaffolded. Increasing copies of the rate‐limiting enzyme boosted the overall performance. At lower enzyme densities, the proximity effects provided by scaffold‐colocalisation result in a higher product yield compared to free docking enzymes ...

The Trichohyalin-Like Protein Scaffoldin Is Expressed in the Multilayered Periderm during Development of Avian Beak and Egg Tooth. [PDF]
Scaffoldin, an S100 fused-type protein (SFTP) with high amino acid sequence similarity to the mammalian hair follicle protein trichohyalin, has been identified in reptiles and birds, but its functions are not yet fully understood. Here, we investigated the expression pattern of scaffoldin and cornulin, a related SFTP, in the developing beaks of birds ...

Structure of CBM3b of the major cellulosomal scaffoldin subunit ScaA fromAcetivibrio cellulolyticus [PDF]
The carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) of the major scaffoldin subunit ScaA of the cellulosome of Acetivibrio cellulolyticus is classified as a family 3b CBM and binds strongly to cellulose. The CBM3b was overexpressed, purified and crystallized, and its three-dimensional structure was determined. The structure contained a nickel-binding site located at

Scaffoldin Modules Serving as “Cargo” Domains To Promote the Secretion of Heterologous Cellulosomal Cellulases by Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
ABSTRACT The secretion of large heterologous cellulases by Clostridium acetobutylicum was formerly shown to be deleterious. To circumvent this issue, various scaffoldins' modules were grafted at their N termini.

A Novel Cellulosomal Scaffoldin from Acetivibrio cellulolyticus That Contains a Family 9 Glycosyl Hydrolase [PDF]
ABSTRACT A novel cellulosomal scaffoldin gene, termed cipV , was identified and sequenced from the mesophilic cellulolytic anaerobe Acetivibrio cellulolyticus . Initial identification of the protein was based on a combination of properties, including its high molecular weight ...

Expression, purification, and characterization of the cellulose-binding domain of the scaffoldin subunit from the cellulosome of Clostridium thermocellum [PDF]
The major cellulose-binding domain (CBD) from the cellulosome of Clostridium thermocellum YS was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The expressed protein was purified efficiently by a modification of a novel procedure termed affinity digestion.

Cell‐surface exposure of a hybrid 3‐cohesin scaffoldin allowing the functionalization of Escherichia coli envelope [PDF]
AbstractCellulosomes are large plant cell wall degrading complexes secreted by some anaerobic bacteria. They are typically composed of a major scaffolding protein containing multiple receptors called cohesins, which tightly anchor a small complementary module termed dockerin harbored by the cellulosomal enzymes.
