Purification, characterization and thermodynamic analysis of cellulases produced from Thermomyces dupontii and its industrial applications.

ABSTRACT: Cellulases involved in the hydrolysis of cellulose and plays a vital role in different industries like textile, detergent paper and Feed industry. Cellulases have been a prospective target for research by both the academic and industrial sectors because of the intricacy of the enzyme system and the enormous industrial potential. In the present work Thermomyces dupontii, which had previously been isolated and recorded as a promising cellulase producer were used. Both endoglucanases and betaglucosidases were purified to its homogeneity by ammonium sulfate followed by anion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. The recovery and purification fold for endoglucanases and betaglucosidases were 13.7, 10.7 % and 5.9, 2.7, respectively. The molecular weight of endoglucanases and betaglu
