Description
BglS
This gene encodes an endo-beta-1,3-1,4-glucanase (bglS), which is from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis subtilis 168. The enzyme will hydrolyze and thereby cleave internal 1,4 linkages adjacent to 1,3 linkages.
Usage and Biology
The substrates vulnerable to the bglS encoded enzyme are mixed linked beta-glucans. These glucans would have 1,3 and 1,4 beta linkages within the polysaccharide linking together the glucose monomers. Examples of these glucans can be found in oats, maize, and barley.

Notes
No design constraints were needed for RF10 insertion, a second stop codon was also added to the end of the coding region.
