Synergic activity of Cel8Pa β-1,4 endoglucanase and Bg1Pa β-glucosidase from A59 in beta-glucan conversion.

In the efficient bioconversion of polysaccharides from lignocellulosic biomass, endoglucanases and β-glucosidases are key enzymes for the deconstruction of β-glucans. In this work, we focused on a GH8 endoglucanase (Cel8Pa) and a GH1 β-glucosidase (Bg1Pa) from A59. Cel8Pa was active on a broad range of substrates, such as β-glucan from barley (24.
