Caldicellulosiruptorspecies hold promise as microorganisms that can solubilize the carbohydrate portion of lignocellulose and subsequently convert fermentable sugars into bio-based chemicals and fuels. Members of the genus have surface layer (S-layer) homology domain-associated glycoside hydrolases (SLH-GHs) that mediate attachment to biomass as well as hydrolysis of carbohydrates.Caldicellulosiruptor bescii, the most studied member of the genus, has only one SLH-GH.
