Biochemical and structural characterisation of a family GH5 cellulase from endosymbiont of shipworm P. megotara

Abstract Background Cellulases play a key role in the enzymatic conversion of plant cell-wall polysaccharides into simple and economically relevant sugars. Thus, the discovery of novel cellulases from exotic biological niches is of great interest as they may present properties that are valuable in t...
