General annotation (Comments)

Function

Plays a central role in the recycling of plant biomass. The biological conversion of cellulose to glucose generally requires three types of hydrolytic enzymes: (1) Endoglucanases which cut internal beta-1,4-glucosidic bonds; (2) Exocellobiohydrolases that cut the dissaccharide cellobiose from the non-reducing end of the cellulose polymer chain; (3) Beta-1,4-glucosidases which hydrolyze the cellobiose and other short cello-oligosaccharides to glucose.

Catalytic activity

Endohydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-D-glucosidic linkages in cellulose, lichenin and cereal beta-D-glucans. Ref.1

Subunit structure

Monomer. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 6 (cellulase B) family.
