Directed Evolution of <i>Clostridium thermocellum</i> β-Glucosidase A Towards Enhanced Thermostability

Directed Evolution of <i>Clostridium thermocellum</i> β-Glucosidase A Towards Enhanced Thermostability

&#946;-Glucosidases are key enzymes in the process of cellulose utilization. It is the last enzyme in the cellulose hydrolysis chain, which converts cellobiose to glucose. Since cellobiose is known to have a feedback inhibitory effect on a variety of cellulases, &#946;-glucosidase can preven...
