Beadle B, Baase W, Wilson D, Gilkes N, Shoichet B
Biochemistry . 1999 Feb; 38(8):2570-6. PMID: 10029552
Several models have been proposed to explain the high temperatures required to denature enzymes from thermophilic organisms; some involve greater maximum thermodynamic stability for the thermophile, and others do not....

Tomme P, Boraston A, McLean B, Kormos J, Creagh A, Sturch K, et al.
J Chromatogr B Biomed Sci Appl . 1998 Oct; 715(1):283-96. PMID: 9792516
Cellulose-binding domains (CBDs) are discrete protein modules found in a large number of carbohydrolases and a few nonhydrolytic proteins. To date, almost 200 sequences can be classified in 13 different...

Stalbrand H, Mansfield S, Saddler J, Kilburn D, Warren R, Gilkes N
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1998 Jul; 64(7):2374-9. PMID: 9647802
Four beta-1,4-glucanases (cellulases) of the cellulolytic bacterium Cellulomonas fimi were purified from Escherichia coli cells transformed with recombinant plasmids. Previous analyses using soluble substrates had suggested that CenA and CenC...
