Description

Cel7A cellulase catalytic domain (PDB 7CEL) docked with cellulose-I fibril surface/chain to depict cellulose hydrolysis process. Pymol model was generated by Dr. Shishir Chundawat as press release image for published paper (Reference: Gao, D.; Chundawat, S. P. S.; Sethi, A.; Balan, V.; Gnanakaran, S.; Dale, B. E. Increased Enzyme Binding to Substrate Is Not Necessary for More Efficient Cellulose Hydrolysis. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.2013, 110(27), 10922–10927 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1213426110).
