Abstract
The present invention relates to the production of sugar hydrolysates from cellulosic material. The method may be used e.g. for producing fermentable sugars for the production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic material. Cellulolytic enzymes and their production by recombinant technology is described, as well as uses of the enzymes and enzyme preparations.
Claims29
A recombinant polypeptide having cellobiohydrolase activity comprising
- an amino acid sequence having at least 90% identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:6 or amino acids 18 to 523 of SEQ ID NO:6.
