Production, purification, and characterization of a thermally stable, Acidophilic Cellulase from Aspergillus awamori AFE1 isolated from Longhorn beetle (Cerambycidae latreille)

Abstract Background The relentless pursuit of cost-effective cellulase, a key enzyme in the biocatalytic conversion of cellulose, has led to exploring insect guts as potential sources of biocatalysts. Herbivorous insects’ intestinal tracts are recognized as rich reservoirs of cellulolytic microorgan...
