• Cellulose is a _____ made of many _____. ...
• Why does the enzyme amylase break down starch but not cellulose? (p. ...
• The enzyme cannot attack cellulose because of its helical shape.
• Cellulose molecules are much too large.
• Starch is made of glucose; cellulose is made of other sugars.
• The bonds between sugars in cellulose are much stronger.
• The sugars in cellulose bond together differently than in starch.
• Generally, animals cannot digest the linkages between the glucose molecules in cellulose. ...
• Microorganisms in their digestive tracts hydrolyze the cellulose to glucose.
• Cows and other herbivores are exceptions and make some cellulose-digesting enzymes.
• The flat teeth and strong stomach of the herbivores break the cellulose fibers so the cows get enough nutrition from the cell contents.
• cellulose.

• The subunits (monomers) in cellulose are linked together by ___________. ...

• Carbohydrate-binding Modules Recognize Fine Substructures of Cellulose* .
• Competition isotherms are used to identify the set of cellulose substructures to which cellulose binding modules (CBMs) from families 2a, 3, 4, 9, and 17 bind. ... Adsorption and surface exchange of like or competing CBMs are monitored using a range of cellulose preparations varying in both crystallinity and provenance. CBMs from families 2a, 3, 4, 9, and 17 are shown to recognize different physical forms of prepared cellulose. The demonstration of the very fine binding specificity of cellulose-specific CBMs implies that the polysaccharide targets of CBMs extend down to the resolution of cellulose microstructures. ...
• There are currently 29 families of CBMs, 13 of which contain members that bind cellulose. ...
• Ascribing a more precise role to members of each CBM family that binds cellulose remains difficult due to incomplete characterization of their biological functions, our limited understanding of binding mechanisms, and our incomplete knowledge of the natural sorbent. In plant tissues, CBMs are thought to bind to regions within the complex cellulose/hemicellulose architecture. Although the exact structure of cellulose in its natural states is unknown, biophysical studies of prepared cellulose samples have identified three prevalent structural classes (10): crystalline cellulose, amorphous cellulose, and para-crystalline cellulose. ...
• For example, CBMs from family 2a, which bind crystalline cellulose preparations with micromolar dissociation constants, are thought to disrupt the crystalline architecture and thereby increase substrate accessibility (11, 12). There is also evidence that families of CBMs that specifically bind cellulose could be involved in targeting enzymes to distinct regions of this complex substrate. In contrast to CBMs from family 2a, the family 4 CBM, CfCel9B-CBM4-1 from endoglucanase 9B of Cellulomonas fimi, binds amorphous cellulose and water-soluble cello-oligosaccharides but shows no affinity for crystalline cellulose. However, this type of comparative analysis has not yet been applied to all families of CBMs known to bind cellulose. ...
• This paper reports the recognition of different physical forms of cellulose by particular CBMs from families 2a, 3, 4, 9, and 17.  Competition isotherms are used 1) to identify the set of cellulose substructures to which each of these CBMs binds, 2) to evaluate possible correlations between CBM binding specificity and catalytic activity of the cognate enzyme(s), and 3) to identify combinations of CBMs that may result in enzyme competition(s) for the same sorbent binding sites. ... These studies were performed using a range of cellulose preparations, varying in both provenance and crystallinity. For each preparation, cross-polarization magic angle-spinning (CP/MAS) solid state NMR was used to determine the relative degree of crystallinity and the presence and relative distribution of other cellulose substructures. ...

• An overview of cellulose conversion technology and various feedstock options and a brief history of ethanol usage in the United States are also presented.
• Substantial cost reductions may be possible, however, if cellulose-based feedstocks are used instead of corn. Producers are experimenting with units equipped to convert cellulose-based feedstocks, using sulfuric acid to break down cellulose and hemicellulose into fermentable sugar. ...
• This analysis presents a brief overview of cellulose conversion technology and various feedstock options, followed by an examination of projected ethanol costs and gasoline prices under various technological scenarios for cellulose ethanol conversion, as well as the uncertainty of oil prices. ...
• Substantial reductions in ethanol production costs may be made possible by replacing corn with less expensive cellulose-based feedstocks. ... Cellulase enzymes (used to convert cellulose to sugar) at $0. ... 15 Advances in biotechnology could lower costs further by allowing fermentation of the nonglucose sugars produced in the hydrolysis of cellulose using genetically engineered bacteria. ... 16 Currently, the cost of producing ethanol from cellulose is estimated to be between $1. ...
• Glucose, the preferred form of sugar for fermentation, is contained in both carbohydrates and cellulose. Because carbohydrates are easier than cellulose to convert to glucose, the majority of ethanol currently produced in the United States is made from corn, which produces large quantities of carbohydrates. ...
• The cellulose must first be converted to sugars by hydrolysis and then fermented to produce ethanol (Figure 4). Cellulosic feedstocks (composed of cellulose and hemicellulose) are more difficult to convert to sugar than are carbohydrates. Two common methods for converting cellulose to sugar are dilute acid hydrolysis and concentrated acid hydrolysis, both of which use sulfuric acid. Dilute acid hydrolysis occurs in two stages to take advantage of the differences between hemicellulose and cellulose. The first stage is performed at low temperature to maximize the yield from the hemicellulose, and the second, higher temperature stage is optimized for hydrolysis of the cellulose portion of the feedstock. Concentrated acid hydrolysis uses a dilute acid pretreatment to separate the hemicellulose and cellulose. ...
