Protein Domain : Carbohydrate binding X2 domain

Primary Identifier  IPR005102 Type  Domain
Short Name  Carbo-bd_X2
description  This domain binds to cellulose and to bacterial cell walls. It is found in glycosyl hydrolases and in scaffolding proteins of cellulosomes (multiprotein glycosyl hydrolase complexes). In the cellulosome it may aid cellulose degradation by anchoring the cellulosome to the bacterial cell wall and by binding it to its substrate []. This domain has an Ig-like fold [].
