Today, we are seeking an efficient biotransformation of cellulosic material into sustainable biochemical products to meet the increasing global energy demand. Herein, we report the fabrication of multienzyme hybrid nanoflowers (ECG-NFs) by co-immobilizing three recombinant enzymes (cellobiohydrolase (CBH), endo-glucanase (EG), and β-glucosidase (BG)) integrating a binary tag composed of elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) and His-tag to act as a tri-enzyme biocatalyst, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of cellulose into glucose. The prepared ECG-NFs exhibited excellent performance in terms of pH stability, thermal stability, storage stability, and catalytic efficiency compared to free multienzyme system. Notably, ECG-NFs could be recycled for up to eight consecutive runs. The Km and kcat/Km values for ECG-NFs were 9.33 g L-1 and 0.0051 L min-1 g-1, respectively, which were better than those of the free multienzyme system, indicating a better substrate affinity. Finally, the overall enzyme activity of ECG-NFs increased by 1.12 times and the degradation efficiency of ECG-NFs was superior to the free multienzyme system, which revealed that ECG-NFs could facilitate an effective one-pot hydrolysis of cellulose into glucose.
