Cellulases from Thermophilic Fungi: Recent Insights and Biotechnological Potential

Figure 2

Ribbon diagrams of known thermophilic fungal cellulase structures. The catalytic residues are shown in stick representation. (a) T. aurantiacus family 5 endoglucanase (PDB id 1GZJ), F5 (b) H. insolens family 6 endoglucanase Cel6B (PDB id 1DYS), (c) H. insolens family 7 endoglucanase EGI (PDB id 2A39), (d) M. albomyces family 7 cellobiohydrolase in complex with cellotetraose (PDB id 2RG0), (e) catalytic domain of H. grisea family 12 Cel12A in complex with cellobiose (PDB id 1UU4), (f) M. albomyces family 45 endoglucanase in complex with cellobiose (PDB id 1OA7). α-Helices are shown in coral and β-strands in cyan. Bound ligands are depicted in stick representation and colored according to atom type. The figures of the structures were created with the CCP4 molecular graphics program [50].
