Computational prediction and development of a thermostable endoglucanase I from Fusarium oxysporum

Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on earth. Enzymatic degradation of this biopolymer is a crucial step toward its conversion to bioethanol. However the current cellulosic enzymes are unable to withstand high temperature of industrial processes. In this work we use computer simulations to pre...
