cellulosomes การใช้

In many bacteria, cellulases in-vivo are complex enzyme structures organized in supramolecular complexes, the cellulosomes.
Numerous " signature " sequences known as dockerins and cohesins have been identified in the genomes of bacteria that produce cellulosomes.
Cellulosomes exist as extracellular complexes that are either attached to the cell wall of bacteria or free in solution, where the insoluble substrate can be broken down into soluble products and taken up by the cell.
The large size and heterogeneity of cellulosomes from the best-characterized organisms ( i . e ., " C . thermocellum, C . cellulolyticum, and C . cellulovorans " ) have greatly complicated efforts to probe cellulosome structure and function.
