A Metagenomic Advance for the Cloning and Characterization of a Cellulase from Red Rice Crop Residues
Many naturally-occurring cellulolytic microorganisms are not readily cultivable, demanding a culture-independent approach in order to study their cellulolytic genes. Metagenomics involves the isolation of DNA from environmental sources and can be used to identify enzymes with biotechnological potent...
