Bacterial cellulose synthase Z (BcsZ)
The BBa_K2559000 is an endoglucanase (Bcs Z) involved in the process of cellulose hydrolysis, and its roles in cellulose biosynthesis have long remained obscure.
Usage and Biology
Bacterial cellulose synthase Z (BcsZ) from several bacteria have been shown to possess an endo-β-1,4-glucanase (cellulase) activity, and E. coli protein was even crystallized in a complex with the substrate cellopentaose(Figure 2), however, the roles in cellulose biosynthesis have long remained obscure. We suspect that the BcsZ and BlgX may help the cell form the correct cellulose configuration through selective digestion. We introduced the Acetobacter xylinum bacterial cellulose synthase gene (including BcsZ, H, A, B, C, D, LX) into the model organism cyanobacteria (Synechocystis),and we obtain the transgenic cyanobacteria(Figure 3).
