The physical and enzymatic properties of noncellulosomal endoglucanase F (EngF) from Clostridium cellulovorans were studied. Binding studies revealed that the Kd and the maximum amount of protein bound for acid-swollen cellulose were 1.8 microM and 7.1 mumol/g of cellulose, respectively. The presence of cellobiose but not glucose or maltose could dissociate EngF from cellulose. N- and C-terminally truncated enzymes showed that binding activity was located at some site between amino acid residues ...[more]
