RESUMO

The nucleotide sequence of the celD gene, encoding the previously crystallized endoglucanase D of Clostridium thermocellum, is reported. The enzyme shares a conserved, reiterated domain with the COOH-terminal end of endoglucanases A and B from the same organism. The overexpression in Escherichia coli of celD subcloned in pUC8 appears to result from a translational fusion of the NH2-terminal end of the endoglucanase with the NH2-terminal end of beta-galactosidase.
