Abstract

The molecular characteristics and a partial amino acid sequence of an endo-.beta.-1,4-glucanase obtainable from Aspergillus aculeatus are described, as well as corresponding recombinant DNA sequences, vectors, and transformed hosts. Use of the endo-.beta.-1,4-glucanase or a pectinase preparation enriched with the endo-.beta.-1,4-glucanase for degradation or modification of plant cell walls is described.
