Abstract
The present invention is directed to purified EG III cellulase enzyme isolated from Trichoderma longibrachiatum and the amino acid sequence of the secreted (mature) and non-secreted (preprotein) forms. The present invention is further directed to the DNA fragment and sequence that encodes the EG III cellulase enzyme. Also disclosed are methods for isolating either purified or highly enriched EG III cellulase obtained from Trichoderma spp. or genetically modified strains of Trichoderma spp.
