Biotechnological And Biomedical Applications Of Fungal Cellobiose Dehydrogenase
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) is an extracellular oxidoreductive enzyme produced by wood-decaying fungi belonging to the phylum Basidiomycota and Ascomycota. This enzyme has a binary structure containing two cofactors (FAD and hem), located in separate domains and connected by a proteolytically sensitive linker. Due to its unique structure and properties, CDH has great potential for application in both biotechnology and biomedical applications. The aim of this paper is to review the literature on catalytic properties of cellobiose dehydrogenase and its potential applications.
