Synergism of cellulolytic enzymes for the hydrolysis of Avicel

Enzyme	Synergism (%)
	Cel6A	Cel7A
Bgl3A	159	130
Cel5A	167	237
Cel6A	100	184
Cel7A	159	100
Cel7B	174	194
Xyl10A	142	168

Each enzyme sample was mixed with an equal amount of Cel6A or Cel7A (total 50 μg protein) and Avicel hydrolysis was measured after two hours at 45°C. Synergism was calculated based on the amount of reducing sugars in the reaction mixture relative to the amount produced by 50 μg of Cel6A or Cel7A.
