Cel5A, endoglucanase（BBa_K805011 Improved）


The endoglucanase genes cel5A can hydrolyze β-1,4glucosan randomly and act on long cellulose chains. The main product is oligomeric glucose. It can digest glucosan to produce glucose monomer in high efficiency with synergy with β-1,4glucosidase.It shows high ability to hydrolyze the crystal cellulose but relative lower enzyme activity towards carboxymethyl cellulose, barley β-glucan, and PASC.

Usage and Biology

Different from BBa_K805011 given by iGEM12_HUST-China, we have done the mutation of an ? to ?? and change the sequence in a way. However,because of the degeneracy of codon,the different sequence can encode the same enzyme.
