We previously isolated and reported a second species of the Saccharophagus genus, Saccharophagus sp. strain Myt-1. In the present study, a cellulase gene (celMytB) from the genomic DNA of Myt-1 was cloned and characterized. The DNA sequence fragment contained an open reading frame of 1,893 bp that encoded a protein of 631 amino acids with an estimated molecular mass of 66.8 kDa. The deduced protein, CelMytB, had a catalytic domain that contained a conserved signature sequence (VIYEIYNEPL) of gly ...[more]
