| Type: | Domain | Name: | Cellobiose dehydrogenase, cytochrome domain |
| Description: | Cellobiose dehydrogenase (CHD; ) is found in a variety of fungi, including white rot, brown rot and plant pathogen fungi. The enzyme is extracellular flavocytochrome that degrades both cellulose and lignin. It acts as a monomer consisting of two domains: a cytochrome domain containing a b-type haem, which is linked through a peptide linker to a large flavodehydrogenase domain containing FAD as a cofactor [].This entry represents the b-type cytochrome domain. This domain assumes an immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwich fold consisting of 7 beta-strands in 2 sheets with a Greek key topology; the haem iron is ligated by a Met/His couple and is docked at the exterior of the enzyme []. | Short Name: | Cellobiose_DH_cyt |
