Synergistic properties of cellulases from Clostridium cellulovorans in the presence of cellobiose
An anaerobic mesophile, Clostridium cellulovorans, produces a multienzyme complex called the cellulosome and actively degrades polysaccharides in the plant cell wall. C. cellulovorans also changes cellulosomal subunits to form highly active combinations dependent on the carbon substrate. A previous...

Sumario: | An anaerobic mesophile, Clostridium cellulovorans, produces a multienzyme complex called the cellulosome and actively degrades polysaccharides in the plant cell wall. C. cellulovorans also changes cellulosomal subunits to form highly active combinations dependent on the carbon substrate. A previous study reported on the synergistic effects of exoglucanase S (ExgS) and endoglucanase H (EngH) that are classified into the glycosyl hydrolase (GH) families 48, and 9, respectively. In this study, we investigated synergistic effects of ExgS and EngK, a GH9 cellulase different from EngH. In addition, since EngK was known to produce cellobiose as its main product, the inhibition on cellulase activity of EngK with cellobiose was examined. As a result, the effect of cellobiose inhibition on EngK coexistent with ExgS was found to be much lower than that with EngH. Thus, although EngH and EngK are in the same GH9 family, enzymatic activity in the presence of cellobiose was significantly different. |
