Bioconversion of cellulosic biomass into fuel ethanol involves several steps, among which enzymatic breakdown of cellulose into fermentable sugars play a significant role. The key enzymes involved in cellulosic breakdown are mainly endoglucanases and β-glucosidases. Even though the biochemical and molecular characterization of number of endoglucanases and β-glucosidases was extensively studied, still there is a demand for novel microbial cellulases for industrial applications. Among the group of actinomycetes, Streptomyces spp. are well known as a cellulase producer. The advantage of using actinomycetes is being that production process could be easily scaled-up to commercial levels. However, recent research studies have shown that the production of cellulases from actinomycetes could also be significantly improved by employing different types of strain improvement methods, thus achieving high yields of extracellular proteins. Besides this, highly thermostable and broad pH range cellulases are required for bioethanol application.
