Abstract β-Glucosidases primarily catalyze removal of terminal glucosyl residues from a
variety of glucoconjugates and also perform transglycosylation and reverse hydrolysis …

A facultative bacterium producing cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes was isolated
from the rumen of a native Korean goat. The bacterium was identified as a Bacillus …

The thermostable, glucose tolerant β-glucosidase gene (bgl) of Glycoside hydrolase family
1, isolated from Bacillus subtilis, was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The bgl …

The rare ginsenoside Compound K (CK) is an attractive ingredient in traditional medicines,
cosmetics, and the food industry because of its various biological activities. However, it does …

A novel β-glucosidase-encoding gene, bgl-gs1, which was identified from a positive fosmid
clone in a metagenomic library of the gut of Globitermes sulphureus, encodes a 455 amino …

The β-glucosidase gene, bglC, was cloned from Bacillus sp. SJ-10 isolated from the squid
jeotgal. Recombinant BglC protein overexpression was induced in Escherichia coli. The …

The gastrointestinal (GI) habitat of ruminant and non-ruminant animals sustains a vast
ensemble of microbes that are capable of utilizing lignocellulosic plant biomass. In this …

A novel β-glucosidase gene, designated RmBglu3B, was cloned from the thermophilic
fungus, Rhizomucor miehei CAU432. Its 2196-bp open reading frame encoded 731 amino …

Cellulose is the most abundant biomaterial in the biosphere and the major component of
plant biomass. Cellulase is an enzymatic system required for conversion of renewable …

Background The identification and characterization of novel β-glucosidase genes has
attracted considerable attention because of their valuable use in a variety of industrial …
