![]() Crystalline cellulose may be accommodated in a surface groove which is imperfectly bounded by the GH9_CBM49, GH9_linker, and linker_CBM49 surfaces and thence digested in a solvent accessible subsurface cavity. Here, I analyse 3D-homology models of characterised and putative class C enzymes to glean insights into the contribution of the GH9, linker, and CBM49 to the mechanism(s) of crystalline cellulose digestion. Plant class C GH9 endoglucanases are CBM49-encompassing hydrolases that cleave the β (1 → 4) glycosidic linkage of contiguous D-glucopyranose residues of crystalline cellulose. ![]() Biofuels such as γ-valerolactone, bioethanol, and biodiesel are derived from potentially fermentable cellulose and vegetable oils.
