| Abstract | The outer membrane (OM) of Fibrobacter succinogenes was isolated by a combination of salt, sucrose, and water washes from whole cells grown on either glucose or cellulose. The cytoplasmic membrane (CM) was isolated from OM-depleted cells after disruption with a French press. The OM and membrane vesicles isolated from the extracellular culture fluid of cellulose-grown cells had a higher density, much lower succinate dehydrogenase activity, and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis protein profiles different from those of the CM. The OM from both glucose- and cellulose-grown cells and the extracellular membrane vesicles from cellulose-grown cultures exhibited higher endoglucanase, xylanase, and acetylesterase activities than the CM and other cell fractions. Endoglucanase 2 was absent from the isolated OM fractions of glucose- and cellulose-grown cells and from the extracellular membrane vesicles of cellulose-grown cells but was present in the CM and intracellular glycogen granule fractions, while endoglucanase 3 was enriched in the OM. Cellobiosidase was located primarily in the periplasm as previously reported, while cellobiase was mainly present in the glycogen granule fraction of glucose-grown cells and in a nongranular glycogen and CM complex in cellulose-grown cells. The cellobiase was not eluted from glycogen granules by cellobiose, maltose, and maltotriose nor from either the granules or the cell membranes by nondenaturing detergents but was eluted from both glycogen granules and cell membranes by high concentrations of salts. The eluted cellobiase rebound almost quantitatively when diluted and mixed with purified glycogen granules but exhibited a low affinity for Avicel cellulose. Thus, we have documented a method for isolation of OM from F. succinogenes, identified the OM origin of the extracellular membrane vesicles, and located glycanases and cellobiase in membrane and glycogen fractions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
