Abstract
The present invention provides for the isolation and characterization of the cbh1 gene from. In particular, the present invention provides for the nucleic acid and amino acid sequences ofcbh1, and domains, variants and derivatives thereof. The present invention further provides for the heterologous expression ofCbh1 in host cells, including yeast, e.g.,. Expression ofCbh1 in host cells will augment cellulose digestion and facilitate ethanol production by those host cells on cellulosic substrates. In certain embodiments, heterologous expression inis in coordination with heterologous expression of other known, or newly identified saccharolytic enzymes. Therefore, the present invention also provides that the novelCbh1 gene can utilized in a consolidated bioprocessing system.
