Investigators publish new data in the report "Endoglucanases from Paenibacillus spp. form a new clan in glycoside hydrolase family 5. Endoglucanase (Egl)-producing bacteria from soil samples were screened using insoluble cellulosic substrates as sole carbon sources at alkaline pH (pH 9-10). Four Egls with Avicelase activity at alkaline pH were found in the culture broth of each isolate," scientists writing in the Journal of Biotechnology report.
"The Egl genes of the isolates (all Paenibacillus spp.) were shotgun cloned and sequenced-all had a 1752bp open reading frame (584 amino acids) with a putative signal sequence (33 amino acids), and encoded mature enzymes...
