Function

Cellobiohydrolase (CBH) is a cellulase which degrades cellulose by hydrolysing the 1,4-β-D-glycosidic bonds. CBH is an exocellulase which cleaves two to four units from the ends of cellulose. There are two types of CBH. CBHI cleaves progressively from the reducing end while CBHII cleaves progressively from the nonreducing end of cellulose.[1]. The exo-acting CBH I is called Cel7A. The endo-acting CBH I is called Cel7B.
