CBM3 is part of CipA scafolding in Cellulosome which contain enzyme with hydrolytic activity(cellulase). Function CBM3 is Type A surface-binding-planar architecture of the binding sites is thought to be complementary to the flat surfaces presented by cellulose. The binding site comprises a planar hydrophobic platform that contains three exposed aromatic amino acid The most important conformational element of most CBMs is the Beta sheets. The folds and architecture displayed by these beta-sheets have been classified into seven families with the β-sandwich being the most recurrent fold and the fold of family 3. . And some Alpha helics. Applications The cellulose-binding module (CBM) is an attractive affinity tag for protein purification for several reasons: 1.Very specific binding ability to the fused protein eith CBM tag. 2.Very low nonspecific binding ability to to other protein. 3.efficient release of bound protein under non-denaturing conditions.
