Exocellobiohydrolases (CBH) that catalyzes the hydrolysis of 1,4-beta-D-glucosidic bonds in cellulose to release the disaccharide cellobiose. The degradation of cellulose involves an interplay between different cellulolytic enzymes. Hydrolysis starts with endoglucanases (EGs), which cut internal beta-1,4-glucosidic bonds in cellulose to reduce the polymerization degree of the substrate and create new chain ends for exocellobiohydrolases (CBHs). The CBHs release the disaccharide cellobiose from the non-reducing end of the cellulose polymer chain. Finally, beta-1,4-glucosidases hydrolyze the cellobiose and other short cello-oligosaccharides into glucose units. Hydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-D-glucosidic linkages in cellulose and cellotetraose, releasing cellobiose from the non-reducing ends of the chains. The enzyme consists of two functional domains, a catalytic core joined to a carbohydrate-binding domain (CBM) by a serine-, threonine-, and proline-rich, highly glycosylated linker sequence. Asn-334 contains mainly a high-mannose-type glycan (Hex(7-9)GlcNAc(2)) in a 3:1 ration with a single GlcNAc. Asn-313 was primarily unglycosylated with a small fraction (18%) bearing a single GlcNAc at this site. Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 6 (cellulase B) family.
