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.

Improved endoglucanase Cel5A

BBa_K805011[1] given by iGEM12_HUST-China had BamH I site. The site is cleared by introducing a silent mutation. GGATCC (874-879) has been changed to GGGTCC. A codon GGA(Gly) is changed to GGG(Gly). Because of the degeneracy of codon,the different sequence can encode the same enzyme.This silent mutation makes the part can be compatible with RFC[21].
