The β-glucosidase secreted by Talaromyces amestolkiae under carbon starvation: a versatile catalyst for biofuel production from plant and algal biomass

Table 3 Comparison of the kinetic parameters of T. amestolkiae BGL-3 with those reported for other fungal β-glucosidases, using cellobiose as substrate. All reactions were performed in triplicate
