TL;DR: Taking into account the core genomes, pangenomes, and individual genomes, the ancestral Caldicellulosiruptor was likely cellulolytic and evolved, in some cases, into species that lost the ability to degrade crystalline cellulose while maintaining the capacity to hydrolyze amorphous cellulose and hemICEllulose.

TL;DR: Roles for Csac-0678 and Csac_2722 in recruitment and hydrolysis of complex polysaccharides and the deconstruction of lignocellulosic biomass are indicated and related SLH domain proteins in other Caldicellulosiruptor genomes may also be important contributors to plant biomass utilization.
