Mutation L428V increased the kcat for cellobiose of the β-glucosidase Sfβgly.
Sfβgly L428V enhanced the cellobiohydrolase TrCel7A activity upon cellulose.
Sfβgly L428V raised in 5 fold the initial rate of the cellulose hydrolysis.
Sfβgly L428V reduced to 1/4 the time needed for TrCel7A run out the substrate.
