This invention relates to enzymes and methods for producing the same. More specifically this invention relates to a variety of fungal enzymes. Nucleic acid molecules encoding such enzymes, compositions, recombinant and genetically modified host cells, and methods of use are described. The invention also relates to a method to convert lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars with enzymes that degrade the lignocellulosic material and novel combinations of enzymes, including those that provide a synergistic release of sugars from plant biomass. The invention also relates to methods to use the novel enzymes and compositions of such enzymes in a variety of other processes, including washing of clothing, detergent processes, deinking and biobleaching of paper and pulp, and treatment of waste streams.
An isolated protein comprising an amino acid sequence that is at least 95% identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:44 and having β-glucosidase activity or a catalytic domain of SEQ ID NO:44, wherein the catalytic domain comprises from about amino acid 87 to about amino acid 643 of SEQ ID NO:44 and having β-glucosidase activity.
A multi-enzyme composition comprising:
