Applications of BBa_K2559000

Bacterial cellulose synthase Z (BcsZ) The BBa_K2559000 is coding 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, however, and 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.
