NOVEL CELLULASE PRODUCING ACTINOMYCETES, CELLULASE PRODUCED THEREFROM AND METHOD OF PRODUCING SAME

摘要

A novel cellulase composition is provided which is produced by an Actinomycete. The cellulase has an approximate calculated molecular weight of 36 kD and has a pH optimum at 40 DEG C of 8 and at 60 DEG C of 7. Also provided is a DNA encoding said cellulase, a method for producing the cellulase and applications thereof.
