Abstract
A novel cellulase composition is provided which is producible by an Actinomycete. The cellulase has an approximate calculated molecular weight of 35 kD and has a pH optimum at 40.degree. C. of 6 and at 60.degree. C. of 6 or less. Also provided is a DNA encoding said cellulase, a method for producing the cellulase and applications thereof.
