Characterization of endoglucanase A from Clostridium cellulolyticum.
A construction was carried out to obtain a high level of expression in Escherichia coli of the gene celCCA, coding for the endoglucanase A from Clostridium cellulolyticum (EGCCA). The enzyme was purified in two forms with different molecular weights, 51,000 and 44,000. The smaller protein was probably the result of proteolysis, although great care was taken to prevent this process from occurrin...
متن کاملInteraction between the endoglucanase CelA and the scaffolding protein CipC of the Clostridium cellulolyticum cellulosome.
The 5' end of the cipC gene, coding for the N-terminal part of CipC, the scaffolding protein of Clostridium cellulolyticum ATCC 35319, was cloned and sequenced. It encodes a 586-amino-acid peptide, including several domains: a cellulose-binding domain, a hydrophilic domain, and two hydrophobic domains (cohesin domains). Sequence alignments showed that the N terminus of CipC and CbpA of C. cellu...
متن کاملX-Ray crystal structure of the multidomain endoglucanase Cel9G from Clostridium cellulolyticum complexed with natural and synthetic cello-oligosaccharides.
Complete cellulose degradation is the first step in the use of biomass as a source of renewable energy. To this end, the engineering of novel cellulase activity, the activity responsible for the hydrolysis of the beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds in cellulose, is a topic of great interest. The high-resolution X-ray crystal structure of a multidomain endoglucanase from Clostridium cellulolyticum has bee...
متن کاملBiochemical properties of a beta-xylosidase from Clostridium cellulolyticum.
A 43-kDa beta-xylosidase from Clostridium cellulolyticum was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme releases xylose from p-nitrophenylxylose and xylodextrins with a degree of polymerization ranging between 2 and 5. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme showed homologies with three other bacterial beta-xylosidases. By proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the enzyme was found t...
متن کاملTertiary structure and characterization of a glycoside hydrolase family 44 endoglucanase from Clostridium acetobutylicum.
A gene encoding a glycoside hydrolase family 44 (GH44) protein from Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 was synthesized and transformed into Escherichia coli. The previously uncharacterized protein was expressed with a C-terminal His tag and purified by nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid affinity chromatography. Crystallization and X-ray diffraction to a 2.2-A resolution revealed a triose phosphate i...
