    Sammanfattning : Cellobiohydrolase Cel7A (Hje_Cel7A) from the ascomycete fungus Hypocrea jecorina is the major component of enzyme cocktails for degradation of plant biomass to soluble sugars for conversion to biofuels. It’s active site is enclosed in a cellulose-binding tunnel and it is able to processively cleave off several cellobiose units from the end of a cellulose chain before being released. LÄS MER
