Abstract excerpt
Functional improvement to one component of the cellulase, endo-beta-1, 4-glucanase, has been a focus of the recent research in this area. We report here the saturation mutagenesis of the active site of an endoglucanase (CfEG) from termite Coptotermes formosanus. First, three dimensional structure of CfEG was built via homology modeling by using a close-related (79% homology in sequence) endo-beta-1,4-glucanase...
