Monomer structure of a hyperthermophilic β-glucosidase mutant forming a dodecameric structure in the crystal form

A protein-engineering study revealed that the C-terminal domain of a thermostable β-glucosidase contributes to its polymeric state.

A new crystal form of a hyperthermophilic endocellulase

The hyperthermostable endocellulase from P. furiosus was crystallized at pH 5.5. The new crystal form has symmetry consistent with space group C2 and exhibits a structure different from that of the protein crystallized at pH 9.0.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a putative feruloyl esterase from Talaromyces cellulolyticus

A feruloyl esterase from T. cellulolyticus containing a carbohydrate-binding module was prepared, purified and crystallized. The crystal diffracted to 2.60 Å resolution using synchrotron radiation.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of a putative acetylxylan esterase from Talaromyces cellulolyticus

Acetylxylan esterase from T. cellulolyticus expressed as a truncated form without the cellulose-binding module 1 domain was purified and crystallized. The crystal diffracted to 1.50 Å resolution using synchrotron radiation.
