Molecular imprinting and immobilization of cellulase onto magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles.

J. Nanosci. Nanotechnol. 14(4) , 2931-6, (2014)

Supermagnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles were molecular-imprinted prepared with cellulase as the template. The molecular imprinted nanoparticles were used as support to immobilization of cellulase. The transmission electron microscopy confirmed the core-shell s...

Adaptive expression of host cell wall degrading enzymes in fungal disease: an example from Fusarium root rot of medicinal Coleus.

Pak. J. Biol. Sci. 16(24) , 2036-40, (2013)

Quantity of extracellular proteins and activities two cell wall degrading enzymes pectinase and cellulase were determined in the culture filtrate of Fusarium solani, the causal organism of root rot of Coleus forskohlii. Substitution of carbon source in the me...

Screening and identification of newly isolated cellulose-degrading bacteria from the gut of xylophagous termite Microcerotermes diversus (Silvestri).

Mikrobiologiia 81(6) , 796-802, (2012)

The aim of the present study was to isolate and characterize the cellulose-degrading bacteria from the gut of the local termite, Microcerotermes diversus (Silvestri), inhabiting the Khuzestan province of Iran. The microorganisms capable of growing in the liqu...

Revealing nature's cellulase diversity: the digestion mechanism of Caldicellulosiruptor bescii CelA.

Science 342(6165) , 1513-6, (2013)

Most fungi and bacteria degrade plant cell walls by secreting free, complementary enzymes that hydrolyze cellulose; however, some bacteria use large enzymatic assemblies called cellulosomes, which recruit complementary enzymes to protein scaffolds. The thermo...

Comment on "Revealing nature's cellulase diversity: the digestion mechanism of Caldicellulosiruptor bescii CelA".

Science 344(6184) , 578, (2014)

Brunecky et al. (Reports, 20 December 2013, p. 1513) compared the cellulolytic activity of bacterial multimodular cellulase CelA with fungal Cel7A (cellobiohydrolase I from Trichoderma reesei). If more active Cel7A from another fungus were used as a reference...

Study on regulation of growth and biosynthesis of cellulolytic enzymes from newly isolated Aspergillus fumigatus ABK9.

Pol. J. Microbiol. 62(1) , 31-43, (2013)

This study was aimed to evaluate the pattern of cellulase biosynthesis from Aspergillusfumigatus ABK9 under submerged fermentation. Production was increased concomitantly with fungal growth up to 72 h and reached maximum (Xmax -6.72 g/l) with specific growth ...

A single-molecule analysis reveals morphological targets for cellulase synergy.

Nat. Chem. Biol. 9(6) , 356-61, (2013)

The mechanisms of enzyme activity on solid substrates are not well understood. Unlike enzyme catalysis in aqueous solutions, enzyme activity on surfaces is complicated by adsorption steps and structural heterogeneities that make enzyme-substrate interactions ...

Microbiology. No barriers to cellulose breakdown.
