DESCRIPTION

Also known as CELE_ACET2, celE. Multifunctional enzyme involved in the degradation of plant cell wall polysaccharides. Displays endoglucanase activity against carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and barley beta-glucan (PubMed:3066698, PubMed:1991028). Also catalyzes the deacetylation of acetylated birchwood xylan and glucomannan, with a preference for the latter, and of the synthetic substrate 4-nitrophenyl acetate (4-NPAc) (PubMed:19338387).
