Abstract excerpt
Cel5 (formerly known as endoglucanase Z) of Erwinia chrysanthemi is secreted by the Out type II pathway. Previous studies have shown that the catalytic domain (CD), linker region (LR) and cellulose-binding domain (CBD) each contain information needed for secretion. The aim of this work was to further investigate the secretion-related information present in the CBD(Cel5). Firstly(, )deleting a surface-exposed...
