초록

The cellobiohydrolase gene (cbhI), a key component of a cellulolytic system, of a mutant PfCM4 (Pleurotus florida), developed through gamma ray radiation mutagenesis, was isolated and cloned. The deduced amino acid sequence was closely related to the glycoside hydrolase family 7 (GH7). The molecular weight of the deduced amino acid sequence of cbhI gene was found to be 22.4 kDa. Though the percent identity was found to be much less (35.61%) between the wild type and mutant, the cellulolytic activity of PfCM4 was 17.24% higher than that of the wild type. This shows that the catalytic domain of the cbhI gene was conserved in the mutant PfCM4.
