Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To compare the subcellular distribution of glycanase-related components between wild-type Ruminococcus albus SY3 and an adhesion-defective mutant, to identify their possible contribution to the adhesion process, and to determine their association with cellulosome-like complexes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Cell fractionation revealed that most of the cellulases and xylanases were associated with capsular and...
