Function
1. Key component of lignocellulosic biomass saccharification, converting cellobiose and soluble glucans to glucose for ethanol and biochemicals.
2. Included in cellulase cocktails for fiber and pulp processing, where it helps complete cellulose hydrolysis and adjust fiber properties.
3. Used in fine-chemical and pharmaceutical biocatalysis for selective hydrolysis or synthesis of glycosides.
4. Contributes to environmental and bioremediation processes by degrading glycosidic pollutants or plant-derived residues.
