Endo-cellulases are important to efficiently hydrolyze cellulose, and widely used in biotechnology. In this study, we overexpressed and characterized an endo-cellulase from Aspergillus nidulans. This endo-cellulase was successfully overexpressed in flasks and fermentor, and its concentration in fermentor reached 0.89 mg/mL. The optimal pH and temperature of the were 4.0 and 80 ℃ respectively, and it was very stable between pH 2.0 and 12.0. It was thermally stable below 60 ℃, whereas it was inactivated very quickly above 70 ℃. Its CMCase activity could be enhanced by Co2+, Mn2+ and Fe2+, whereas it was inhibited by Pb2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+. Therefore, this endo-cellulase exhibited good pH stability and thermostability below 60 ℃, and has the potential as commercial enzymes.
