  • ß-GLUCOSIDASE
    Publication number: 20150017691
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polypeptide which has ?-glucosidase activity, and which includes an amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1, a polypeptide including an amino acid sequence in which one or several amino acids are deleted, substituted, or added in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1, or a polypeptide including an amino acid sequence having 92% or greater sequence identity with the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1. According to the present invention, a novel ?-glucosidase enzyme derived from Acremonium cellulolyticus, a polynucleotide encoding the ?-glucosidase, an expression vector for expressing the ?-glucosidase, a transformant incorporated with that expression vector, and a method for producing a cellulose degradation product using the ?-glucosidase can be provided.
    Type: Application
