E1 ENDOGLUCANASE CELLULOSE BINDING DOMAIN

摘要

The Acidothermus cellulolyticus E1 endoglucanase, domains thereof, fusion proteins containing such domains, and variants thereof are described. Nucleic acids encoding such proteins or polypeptides are also described. The cellulose binding domain of the E1 endoglucanase is useful in labelling or modifying a cellulose or other polysaccharide surface, and in purifying or immobilizing a binding domain fusion protein to cellulose or other polysaccharide.
