Structure of the cellulosome. The central component of the cellulosome, CipA, is bound to the peptidoglycan layer of C. thermocellum via binding of the Type II cohesin and Type II dockerin domains. CipA also contains a carbohydrate binding module (CBM), which locates lignocellulose, and Type I cohesins that bind Type I dockerins containing catalytic units for the digestion hemicellulose and cellulose.
