Cellulase

This is a BioBrick for cellulase production in E.coli. CelE is one of the three major proteins of the cellulosome of Clostridium cellulolyticum.

Cellulase catalyses the reactions, from crystal to cellulose to cellobiose/cellotetrose and to glucose. The cellulose is protease resistant.


As part of the Imperial 2009 iGEM E.ncapsulator project, E.coli was engineered to synthesise cellulase to a tunable threshold, and successfully coat and protect it through the stomach, until release in the small intestine.
