A unique self-truncation of bacterial GH5 endoglucanases leads to enhanced activity and thermostability

Abstract Background β-1,4-endoglucanase (EG) is one of the three types of cellulases used in cellulose saccharification during lignocellulosic biofuel/biomaterial production. GsCelA is an EG secreted by the thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus sp. 70PC53 isolated from rice straw compost in southern Ta...
