| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy and high speed atomic force microscopy, we determined kinetic constants of the elementary reaction steps for carbohydrate hydrolase TrCel7A against cellulose Iα and IIII. TrCel7A displayed similar binding and dissociation rate constants for cellulose Iα and IIII and similar fractions of productive binding on cellulose Iα and IIII. Furthermore, once productively bound, TrCel7A processively hydrolyzes and moves along cellulose Iα and IIII with similar translational rates. With structural models of cellulose Iα and IIII, we propose that different susceptibilities at high TrCel7A concentration arise from surface properties of substrate, including ratio of hydrophobic surface and number of available lanes.
