A β-glucosidase, PaBG1b, from the xylophagous cockroach Panesthia angustipennis spadica was heterologously expressed and characterized. PaBG1b demonstrated high specific activity and catalytic efficiency towards cellobiose with Vmax and kcat/Km values of 436.7 ± 6.3 U/mg and 109.8 mM−1 s−1, respectively. Although the glucose tolerance of PaBG1b was moderate (Ki = 200.3 ± 1.1 mM), it was not inhibited by cellobiose up to the highest concentration tested (100 mM), which makes it a suitable candidate for commercial bioethanol production from cellulose.
