Cost-effective and concurrent production of industrially valuable xylano-pectinolytic enzymes by a bacterial isolate Bacillus pumilus AJK

Simultaneous production of xylanase and pectinase by Bacillus pumilus AJK under submerged fermentation was investigated in this study. Under optimized conditions, it produced 315?±?16 IU/mL acidic xylanase, 290?±?20 IU/mL alkaline xylanase, and 88?±?9 IU/mL pectinase. The production of xylano-pectinolytic enzymes was the highest after inoculating media (containing 2% each of wheat bran and Citrus limetta peel, 0.5% peptone, 10?mM MgSO₄, pH 7.0) with 2% of 21-hr-old culture and incubated at 37°C for 60?hr at 200?rpm. Xylanase retained 100% activity from pH 6.0 to10.0 after 3?hr of incubation, while pectinase showed 100% stability from pH 6.0 to 9.0 even after 6?hr of incubation. Cost-effective and concurrent production of xylanase and pectinase by a bacterial isolate in the same production media suggests its potential for various biotechnological applications. This is the first report of simultaneous production of industrially important extracellular xylano-pectinolytic enzymes by B. pumilus.     

Production and optimization of cellulase-free, alkali-stable xylanase by Bacillus pumilus SV-85S in submerged fermentation

This paper reports the production of a cellulase-free and alkali-stable xylanase in high titre from a newly isolated Bacillus pumilus SV-85S using cheap and easily available agro-residue wheat bran. Optimization of fermentation conditions enhanced the enzyme production to 2995.20 ± 200.00 IU/ml, which was 9.91-fold higher than the activity under unoptimized basal medium (302.2 IU/ml). Statistical optimization using response-surface methodology was employed to obtain a cumulative effect of peptone, yeast extract, and potassium nitrate (KNO₃) on enzyme production. A 2³ central composite design best optimized the nitrogen source at the 0 level for peptone and yeast extract and at the −α level for KNO₃, along with 5.38-fold increase in xylanase activity. Addition of 0.1% tween 80 to the medium increased production by 1.5-fold. Optimum pH for xylanase was 6.0. The enzyme was 100% stable over the pH range from 5 to 11 for 1 h at 37°C and it lost no activity, even after 3 h of incubation at pH 7, 8, and 9. Optimum temperature for the enzyme was 50°C, but the enzyme displayed 78% residual activity even at 65°C. The enzyme retained 50% activity after an incubation of 1 h at 60°C. Characteristics of B. pumilus SV-85S xylanase, including its cellulase-free nature, stability in alkali over a long duration, along with high-level production, are particularly suited to the paper and pulp industry.

Statistical optimization of medium components for the production of xylanase byAspergillus niger KK2 in submerged cultivation

Medium composition was optimized for the production of xylanase byAspergillus niger KK2 using statistical experimental designs. Corn steep liquor (CSL) and industrial yeast extract (IYE) were the most important factors affecting xylanase activity. The medium that produced the optimum conditions for the production of xylanase contained 3% rice straw, 1% wheat bran, 6.3% CSL, 0.15% IYE, and 0.5% KH₂PO₄. After 4 days of cultivation under optimized conditions in a 2.5-L stirred tank reactor the activity and productivity of xylanase were 620 IU/mL and 6,458 IU/L.h, respectively. The highest xylanase activity obtained using the optimized medium was 80% greater than the activity obtained using basal medium. The xylanase activity predicted by a polynomial model was 670 IU/ml.     

Development of mutants of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Melanocarpus albomyces</Emphasis> for hyperproduction of xylanase

The wild type filamentous fungus, Melanocarpus albomyces, produces many commercially valuable enzymes, including Xylanases and Xylan-debranching enzymes with low activity. In this paper, we report for the first time the development of M. albomyces mutants from vegetative spores. Profuse sporulation of M. albomyces was induced on Potato Carrot Agar medium. These spores, when subjected to chemical mutation, led to the isolation of the hyper-xylanase producing mutant, viz, M. albomyces IITD3A. Various parameters including number of spores, nitrogen source and C/N ratio of the medium were optimized for production of xylanase by the mutant in a shake flask culture. Under controlled pH at 7.8, the mutant produced highly active xylanase with 415 IU/mL after 36 h of growth on soluble alkaline lignocellulosic extract in a 14-L fermentor. The overall productivity of xylanase was 8-fold higher than the wild type culture with11, 530 IU/L/h. The enzyme can be easily stored at 37°C for 50 days by addition of a small amount of the preservative — thiomersal. Also, for long term storage, a lyophilized powder form of the enzyme can be used which retained 100% of its activity for > 50 days. When assayed at pH 7.5 and temperature 55°C, the xylanase retained 100% of its original activity, and also at pH 9.0, it retained > 50% of its activity for 2 h, which is promising for its application in the pulp and paper industry.     

Rice straw fermentation by Schizophyllum commune ARC-11 to produce high level of xylanase for its application in pre-bleaching

Rice straw is valuable resource that has been used as substrate for cost effective production of xylanase under solid-state fermentation by a newly isolated white rot fungi, S. commune ARC-11. Out of eleven carbon sources tested, rice straw was found most effective for the induction of xylanase that produced 4288.3?IU/gds of xylanase by S. commune ARC-11. Maximum xylanase production (6721.9?IU/gds) was observed on 8^th day of incubation at temperature (30?°C), initial pH (7.0) and initial moisture content (70.0%). The supplementation of ammonium sulphate (0.08% N, as available nitrogen) enhanced the xylanase production up to 8591.4?IU/gds. The xylanase production by S. commune ARC-11 was further improved by the addition of 0.10%, (w/v) of Tween-20 as surfactant. The maximum xylanase activities were found at pH 5.0 and temperature 55?°C with a longer stability (180?min) at temperature 45, 50 and 55?°C. This xylanase preparation was also evaluated for the pre-bleaching of ethanol-soda pulp from Eulaliopsis binata. An enzyme dosage of 10?IU/g of xylanase resulted maximum decrease in kappa number (14.51%) with a maximum improvement 2.9% in ISO brightness compared to control.     

Production and purification of high levels of cellulase-free bacterial xylanase by Bacillus sp. SV-34S using agro-residue

Xylanase produced from the isolated bacterial strain Bacillus sp. SV-34S showed a 8.74-fold increase in enzyme activity under optimized submerged fermentation conditions. Cultivation using wheat bran as the carbon source and beef extract and (NH₄)H₂PO₄ as the nitrogen source resulted in productivity of 3,454.01 IU/mL xylanase. Xylanase was purified by 12.94-fold, with a recovery of 13.4 % and a specific activity of 3417.2 IU/mg protein, employing ammonium sulphate fractionation followed by cation-exchange chromatography using CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography, with a product of 27 kDa. The purified xylanase showed an optimum temperature and pH of 50 °C and 6.5, respectively although it was active even at pH 11.0. The thermostability study revealed that Bacillus sp. SV-34S was thermotolerant, being stable up to 50 °C; the residual activity at 55 and 60 °C was 96 and 93 %, respectively. The enzyme was stable between pH 6.0 and 8.0, although it retained >100 % activity at pH 8.0 and 9.0, respectively, following pre-incubation for 24 h. Xylanase activity was inhibited by various metal ions added to the assay mixture, with maximum inhibition observed in the presence of HgCl₂. The K_m and V_max values of the purified xylanase using birch wood xylan as substrate were 3.7 mg/mL and 133.33 IU/mL, respectively. The isolated bacterial strain produced high levels of extremophilic cellulase-free xylanase. The fact that it can be used in crude form and that it can be produced cheaply with renewable carbon sources make the process economically feasible. The characteristics of the purified enzyme suggest its potential application in industries such as the paper and pulp industry.     

Production of multi-fiber modifying enzyme from Mamillisphaeria sp. for refining of recycled paper pulp

Enzymatic modification of pulp is receiving increasing interest for energy reduction at the refining step of the paper-making process. In this study, the production of a multi-fiber modifying enzyme from Mamillisphaeria sp. BCC8893 was optimized in submerged fermentation using a response-surface methodology. Maximal production was obtained in a complex medium comprising wheat bran, soybean, and rice bran supplemented with yeast extract at pH 6.0 and a harvest time of 7 d, resulting in 9.2 IU/mL of carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), 14.9 IU/mL of filter paper activity (FPase), and 242.7 IU/mL of xylanase. Treatment of old corrugated container pulp at 0.2-0.3 IU of CMCase/g of pulp led to reductions in refining energy of 8.5-14.8%. The major physical properties were retained, including tensile and compression strength. Proteomic analysis showed that the enzyme was a complex composite of endo-glucanases, cellobiohydrolases, beta-1,4-xylanases, and beta-glucanases belonging to various glycosyl hydrolase families, suggestive of cooperative enzyme action in fiber modification, providing the basis for refining efficiency.     

Influence of pH on the production of xylanases by Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30

Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30 was cultivated in bioreactors at different pH on a medium with lactose as the main carbon source. Compared to an earlier study, in which T. reesei Rut C-30 was cultivated using polysaccharides (cellulose or xylan) as the main carbon sources, we now report a slightly lower pH value for maximal xylanase levels. The highest xylanase activity (IU/ml) on the lactose-based medium was observed at pH 6.0 compared to pH 7.0 on the polysaccharide-based media. When the pattern of different xylanases was analyzed by isoelectric focusing and activity zymogram, we observed that a low pH (4.0) favoured the production of xylanase I, whilst a high pH (6.0) favoured the production of xylanase III. Xylanase II was clearly produced at both pH values. The results at pH 4 and 6 correlate with the pH activity profiles of xylanase I, II and III. Hence, the different T. reesei xylanases were produced according to which enzyme is most active in that particular environment.

Properties and application of a partially purified alkaline xylanase from an alkalophilic fungus Aspergillus nidulans KK-99

An alkalophilic Aspergillus nidulans KK-99 produced an alkaline, thermostable xylanase (40 IU/ml) in a basal medium supplemented with wheat bran (2% w/v) and KNO3 (at 0.15% N) pH 10.0 and 37 degrees C. The partially purified xylanase was optimally active at pH 8.0 and 55 degrees C. The xylanase was stable in a broad pH range of 4.0-9.5 for 1 h at 55 degrees C, retaining more than 80% of its activity. The enzyme exhibited greater binding affinity for xylan from hardwood than from softwood. The xylanase activity was stimulated (+25%) by Na+ and Fe2+ and was strongly inhibited (maximum by 70%) by Tween-20, 40, 60, SDS, acetic anhydride, phenylmethane sulphonyl fluoride, Triton-X-100. The xylanase dose of 1.0 IU/g dry weight pulp gave optimum bleach boosting of Kraft pulp at pH 8.0 and temperature 55 degrees C for 3 h reaction time.     

Hyper production of alkali stable xylanase in lesser duration by Bacillus pumilus SV-85S using wheat bran under solid state fermentation

High level production of an extracellular cellulase-poor alkali stable xylanase has been conceded from newly isolated Bacillus pumilus SV-85S under solid state fermentation using wheat bran as a substrate. Optimization of the fermentation conditions enhanced the enzyme production to 73,000 ± 1,000 IU/g dry substrate, which was 13.8-fold higher than unoptimized conditions (5,300 IU/g). The enzyme titre was highest after 48 h of incubation at 30°C with 1:3 ratios of substrate to moistening agent using wheat bran as a carbon source. The enzyme could be produced in significant levels by using either tap water or distilled water alone as a moistening agent. An elevated production of xylanase by B. pumilus SV-85S in the presence of wheat bran, a cheap and easily available agro-residue, in shorter duration would apparently reduce the enzyme cost substantially. The enzyme was completely stable over a broad pH (5-11) range and retained 52% of its activity at a temperature of 70°C for 30 min. The desired characteristics of this enzyme together with economic production would be important for its application in paper and pulp industry.     

Production, Purification, and Characterization of beta-(1-4)-Endoxylanase of Streptomyces roseiscleroticus

Twelve species of Streptomyces that formerly belonged to the genus Chainia were screened for the production of xylanase and cellulase. One species, Streptomyces roseiscleroticus (Chainia rosea) NRRL B-11019, produced up to 16.2 IU of xylanase per ml in 48 h. A xylanase from S. roseiscleroticus was purified and characterized. The enzyme was a debranching beta-(1-4)-endoxylanase showing high activity on xylan but essentially no activity against acid-swollen (Walseth) cellulose. It had a very low apparent molecular weight of 5,500 by native gel filtration, but its denatured molecular weight was 22,600 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It had an isoelectric point of 9.5. The pH and temperature optima for hydrolysis of arabinoxylan were 6.5 to 7.0 and 60 degrees C, respectively, and more than 75% of the optimum enzyme activity was retained at pH 8.0. The xylanase had a K(m) of 7.9 mg/ml and an apparent V(max) of 305 mumol . min . mg of protein. The hydrolysis rate was linear for xylan concentrations of less than 4 mg/ml, but significant inhibition was observed at xylan concentrations of more than 10 mg/ml. The predominant products of arabinoxylan hydrolysis included arabinose, xylobiose, and xylotriose.     

Production of Xylanase of Bacillus coagulans and its bleaching potential

Summary The production of xylanase from Bacillus coagulans has been studied with respect to the environmental parameters, the carbon source and the concentration of carbon source at the shake flask level. Among the various carbon sources used, wheat straw powder favoured higher enzyme production. Xylan isolated from wheat straw gave higher enzyme production as compared to the birchwood xylan. Maximum enzyme activity of 165 IU/ml was obtained with 2% wheat straw xylan in a shake flask study. Improvement of xylanase production was achieved by increasing the wheat straw powder concentration up to 3%. Enzyme has optimum activity at a temperature of 55 °C and pH of 7. The concentrated crude enzyme was found to reduce the kappa number of enzyme-treated eucalyptus pulp by␣5.45% with a marginal increase in the CED viscosity of the enzyme treated pulp as compared to the non-enzymatically treated pulp.     

High activity xylanase from Aspergillus sydowii MG49 during growth on jute stalk lignocellulose

Aspergillus sydowil MG49 produced 33.0 U mg^-1 of extracellular xylanase activity when grown in liquid state fermeniation (LSF) with 1% ground jute stalk as the sole carbon source compared to 56.0 U mg^-1 when pure xylan was used. Optimum time-course and pH for maximum enzyme production were 144 h and 4.0 respectively. The culture filtrate was devoid of any cellulase and β-xylosidase activity. The xylanase exhibited optimum activity at 60°C and pH 5.5. Partially-fermented jute stalk could be recycled at least twice for xylanase production, exhibiting 25.8 and 17.4 U mg^-1 activity in two later consecutive cycles respectively.     

Purification and properties of xylanase fromAureobasidium

Summary The yeast-like fungusAureobasidium is a promising source of xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) with an exceptionally high specific activity. For enzyme production in volumes of several liters, xylose was the preferred carbon source and inducer. Xylanase in clarified cultures was concentrated by reversible adsorption to cation-exchange matrix to 5% of the initial volume, and recovered at nearly 2 million IU/1. Selective conditions permitted 97% recovery of xylanase with a 1.8-fold enrichment in specific activity, to 70% of purity. The predominant xylanase species (20 kDa) was subsequently purified to >99% of homogeneity by gel filtration chromatography. Purified enzyme exhibited an isoelectric point of 8.5, and specific activity of 2100 IU/mg under optimal conditions, determined to be pH 4.5 and 45°C. The activity of purified enzyme was specific for polymeric xylan.The mention of firm names or trade products does not imply that they are endorsed or recommended by the U.S. Dept. of Agirculture over other firms or similar products not mentioned.     

Production and biochemical characterization of a novel cellulase-poor alkali-thermo-tolerant xylanase from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Coprinellus disseminatus</Emphasis> SW-1 NTCC 1165

Fungi producing xylanases are plentiful but alkali-thermo-tolerant fungi producing cellulase-poor xylanase are rare. Out of 12 fungal strains isolated from various sources, Coprinellus disseminatus SW-1 NTCC 1165 yielded the highest xylanase activity (362.1 IU/ml) with minimal cellulase contamination (0.64 IU/ml). The solid state fermentation was more effective yielding 88.59% higher xylanase activity than that of submerged fermentation. An incubation period of 7 days at 37°C and pH 6.4 accelerated the xylanase production up to the maximum level. Among various inexpensive agro-residues used as carbon source, wheat bran induced the maximum xylanase titres (469.45 IU/ml) while soya bean meal was the best nitrogen source (478.5 IU/ml). A solid substrate to moisture content ratio of 1:3 was suitable for xylanase production while xylanase titre was repressed with the addition of glucose and lactose. The xylanase and laccase activities under optimized conditions were 499.60 and 25.5 IU/ml, respectively along with negligible cellulase contamination (0.86 IU/ml). Biochemical characterization revealed that optimal xylanase activity was observed at pH 6.4 and temperature 55°C and xylanase is active up to pH 9 (40.33 IU/ml) and temperature 85°C (48.81 IU/ml). SDS–PAGE and zymogram analysis indicated that molecular weight of alkali-thermo-tolerant xylanase produced by C. disseminatus SW-1 NTCC 1165 was 43 kDa.     

A novel thermostable xylanase from Thermomonospora sp.: influence of additives on thermostability

An alkalothermophilic Thermomonospora sp. producing high levels of xylanase was isolated from self-heating compost. The culture produced 125 IU/ml of xylanase when grown in shake flasks at pH 9 and 50 degrees C for 96 h. The culture filtrate also contained cellulase (23 IU/ml), mannanase (1 IU/ml) and beta-xylosidase (0.1 IU/ml) activities. The xylanase was active at a broad range of pH (5-9) and temperature (40-90 degrees C). The optimum pH and temperature were 7 and 70 degrees C, respectively. The enzyme was stable in the pH range 5-8 and was thermostable with half-lives of 8 and 4 h at 60 degrees C and 70 degrees C, respectively, but only 9 min at 80 degrees C. The effects of a variety of compounds to enhance the stability of xylanase at 80 degrees C was studied. Addition of sorbitol, mannitol and glycerol increased the thermostability of xylanase in proportion to the number of hydroxyl groups per polyol molecule. Glycine also offered protection against thermoinactivation. Xylan, trehalose, gelatin and trehalose-gelatin mixture had marginal effect on the thermostability of xylanase at 80 degrees C.
