Cellulose Synthase Gene

This is a gene encoding a cellulose synthase gene showing high conservation between multiple organisms, including C. Reinhardtii, E. Coli and Salmonella. The cellulose synthase enzyme is responsible for catalyzing cellulose production from carbohydrate monomers, and produces the cellulose that forms the bulk of the cell-walls of photoautotrophs. Proposed uses include using different levels of promotor expression to up or down regulate cellulose production in a cell; thereby causing either thickening or deficiency in the cell wall of a photoautotroph.
