Summary

This is part of a two-book assessment of hydrolase structure/functionrelationships and the means by which these important enzymes can be betterutilized. Each book, Assessment and Emerging New Chemicals and Fate andExposure, will deal with understanding cellulase and hemicellulase action - astrategy based in macromolecular modeling, site-directed mutagenesis, activesite mapping, heterologous expression, and classical kinetic characterization.Information about new cellulase enzymes and systems and trends in the field ofglycosyl hydrolase biochemistry will be examined as well as new crystallographicstructure of important cellulases and methods for improving activity by proteinengineers.
