cellulose binding domain (CBD)
The cellulose-binding domain (CBD) proteins are proven to lead other proteins to cellulose in both vivo and vitro. In several organisms, such as yeast, plants, and bacteria, They are used to help protein complexes to bind to cellulose for other catalytic activities. For laboratory applications, it is used for in vitro protein purification as only their target gene fused with CBD would bind to the immobilized cellulose via washing through the column. The CBM1 gene in fission yeast, S. pombe, is one of the genes encoded for the CBD family. The purpose of cloning this CBM1(=CBD) is to carry our spider silk proteins, MaSp1, and MaSp2 to bind to scoby membranes.
