Swollenins exist within some fungal species and are candidate accessory proteins for the biodegradation of cellulosic substrates. Here, we describe the identification of a swollenin gene, <i>Tlswo</i>, in <i>Talaromyces leycettanus</i> JCM12802. <i>Tlswo</i> was successfully expressed in both <i>Trichoderma reesei</i> and <i>Pichia pastoris</i>. Assay results indicate that <i>Tl</i>SWO is capable of releasing reducing sugars from lichenan, barley β-glucan, carboxymethyl cellulose sodium (CMC-Na) ...[more]
