In-silico characterization of glycosyl hydrolase family 1 β glucosidase from Trichoderma asperellum UPM1

β-glucosidases (Bgl) are widely utilized for releasing non-reducing terminal glucosyl residues. Nevertheless, feedback inhibition by glucose end product has limited its application. A noticeable exception has been found for β-glucosidases of the glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 1, which exhibit toler...
