Cloning and Sequence Analysis of a New Cellulase Gene Encoding CelK, a Major Cellulosome Component of Clostridium thermocellum: Evidence for Gene Duplication and Recombination

The cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic complex of Clostridium thermocellum, termed cellulosome, consists of up to 26 polypeptides, of which at least 17 have been sequenced. They include 12 cellulases, 3 xylanases, 1 lichenase, and CipA, a scaffolding polypeptide. We report here a new cellulase gene,...
