Abstract A C₁enriched cellulase fraction was separated from culture filtrate of anaerobic Clostridium thermocellum by hydroxyapatite column chromatography. The separated fraction showed strong synergistic action with C_x component (endo-β-1, 4-glucanase) in digestion of crystalline cellulose, similar to the other aerobic cellulolytic microorganisms. Unlike the C_x component the C₁ enriched fraction was rapidly inactivated by oxidation at the atmospheric condition. The enzyme activity was significantly enhanced by the addition of reducing agents, especially β-mercaptoethanol, which indicates that a C₁ component has a lot of sulfhydryl groups essential for the enzyme activity. The effect of metal ions on C₁ activity was also investigated. The C₁ fraction was found to be thermally stable compare to endo-β-1,4-glucanase. Optimal temperature and pH were found to be 60× and 6.0, respectively.
