[edit] Cellulase

It should be mentioned that mushrooms are cellulase producers and that they are mainly the only organisms with this ability.

Technically a variety of plants, fungi and bacteria produces cellulase, with the most evolved or most efficient at digesting cellulose being Clostridiums like Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium cellulovoran, I’ll add some pictures of the cellulosome structure to explain their efficiency.--BerserkerBen 17:03, 9 May 2006 (UTC)


Is it possible for someone to expand this page? Some info on ideal temparature and PH would be great. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Riottto (talkcontribs) 12:28, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
