Glucose-tolerant β-glucosidase retrieved from the metagenome

β-glucosidases (BGLs) hydrolyze cellooligosaccharides to glucose and play a crucial role in the enzymatic saccharification of cellulosic biomass. Despite their significance for the production of glucose, most identified BGLs are commonly inhibited by low (~mM) concentrations of glucose. Therefore, B...
