Paradigmatic status of an endo- and exoglucanase and its effect on crystalline cellulose degradation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Microorganisms employ a multiplicity of enzymes to efficiently degrade the composite structure of plant cell wall cellulosic polysaccharides. These remarkable enzyme systems include glycoside hydrolases (cellulases, hemicellulases),...
