Claim 7:
8. An expression vector for encoding the thermostable trehalose synthase of claim 1, consisting essentially of:
a nucleotide sequence encoding the trehalose synthase domain derived from Thermus thermophiles; wherein said encoded trehalose synthase domain converts maltose into trehalose and/or converts sucrose into trehalulose; and
a nucleotide sequence encoding the cellulose binding domain, wherein said nucleotide sequence encoding said cellulose binding domain has at least 90% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 5, and said encoded cellulose binding domain binds cellulose wherein said nucleotide sequence encoding said cellulose binding domain is connected to the 3′-terminal of said nucleotide sequence encoding said trehalose synthase domain and said cellulose binding domain encodes a linkage of consecutive amino acids consisting of Threonine and Proline.
