Cellulase is now widely applied in various fields such as textiles, daily chemical industry, papermaking, food fermentation, industrial washing, tobacco, oil extraction, wastewater treatment and feed. Its application prospects are very broad. Natural cellulase exists in microorganisms, certain insects and plants. When plant seeds germinate, cellulase hydrolyzes the cellulose of the seed coat to facilitate emergence. The symbiotic bacteria and protozoa in the digestive tract of herbivorous ruminants can secrete cellulase to hydrolyze cellulose into sugars that can be absorbed. Utilizing cellulase secreted by microorganisms for processing agricultural and sideline products can produce high-quality feed and glucose. In agriculture, green Trichoderma (a type of fungus rich in cellulase) is used for feed fermentation to improve the nutritional value of cellulose-based feed. Cellulase products are one of the main reagents for isolating plant protoplasts. In plant cell fusion experiments, cellulase or snail enzymes are often used to decompose and remove the cell wall to separate and obtain the required protoplasts. Most industrial cellulase is endoglucanase, containing a catalytic region and a cellulose connection region. Without the cellulose connection region, the enzyme has very low activity for cellulose. Some people have conducted a comparative study on cellulase and protease and found that the activity of cellulase is more related to the strength of adsorption. The catalytic region of the cellulose di-sugar hydrolase of Trichoderma reesei has an amino acid residue Tyr at position 169 that can assist the conversion of the glucose ring into a more reactive configuration.
