The nucleotide sequence of the Clostridium josui FERM P-9684 xyn10A gene, encoding a xylanase Xyn10A, consists of 3,150 bp and encodes 1,050 amino acids with a molecular weight of 115,564. Xyn10A is a multidomain enzyme composed of an N-terminal signal peptide and six domains in the following order: two thermostabilizing domains, a family 10 xylanase domain, a family 9 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM), and two S-layer homologous (SLH) domains. Immunological analysis indicated the presence of Xyn10A in the culture supernatant of C. josui FERM P-9684 and on the cell surface. The full-length Xyn10A expressed in a recombinant Escherichia coli strain bound to ball-milled cellulose (BMC) and the cell wall fragments of C. josui, indicating that both the CBM and the SLH domains are fully functional in the recombinant enzyme. An 85-kDa xylanase species derived from Xyn10A by partial proteolysis at the C-terminal side, most likely at the internal region of the CBM, retained the ability to bind to BMC. This observation suggests that the catalytic domain or the thermostabilizing domains are responsible for binding of the enzyme to BMC. Xyn10A-II, the 100-kDa derivative of Xyn10A, was purified from the recombinant E. coli strain and characterized. The enzyme was highly active toward xylan but not toward p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xylopyranoside, p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-cellobioside, or carboxymethylcellulose.  相似文献

The Clostridium stercorarium xylanase Xyn10B is a modular enzyme comprising two thermostabilizing domains, a family 10 catalytic domain of glycosyl hydrolases, a family 9 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM), and two S-layer homologous (SLH) domains [Biosci. Biotechnol. Biochem., 63, 1596-1604 (1999)]. To investigate the role of this CBM, we constructed two derivatives of Xyn10B and compared their hydrolytic activity toward xylan and some preparations of plant cell walls; Xyn10BdeltaCBM consists of a catalytic domain only, and Xyn10B-CBM comprises a catalytic domain and a CBM. Xyn10B-CBM bound to various insoluble polysaccharides including Avicel, acid-swollen cellulose, ball-milled chitin, Sephadex G-25, and amylose-resin. A cellulose binding assay in the presence of soluble saccharides suggested that the CBM of Xyn10B had an affinity for even monosaccharides such as glucose, galactose, xylose, mannose and ribose. Removal of the CBM from the enzyme negated its cellulose- and xylan-binding abilities and severely reduced its enzyme activity toward insoluble xylan and plant cell walls but not soluble xylan. These findings clearly indicated that the CBM of Xyn10B is important in the hydrolysis of insoluble xylan. This is the first report of a family 9 CBM with an affinity for insoluble xylan in addition to crystalline cellulose and the ability to increase hydrolytic activity toward insoluble xylan.  相似文献

S-layer homology (SLH) module polypeptides were derived from Clostridium josui xylanase Xyn10A, Clostridium stercorarium xylanase Xyn10B, and Clostridium thermocellum scafoldin dockerin binding protein SdbA as rXyn10A-SLH, rXyn10B-SLH, and rSdbA-SLH, respectively. Their binding specificities were investigated using various cell wall preparations. rXyn10A-SLH and rXyn10B-SLH bound to native peptidoglycan-containing sacculi consisting of peptidoglycan and secondary cell wall polymers (SCWP) prepared from these bacteria but not to hydrofluoric acid-extracted peptidoglycan-containing sacculi (HF-EPCS) lacking SCWP, suggesting that SCWP are responsible for binding with SLH modules. In contrast, rSdbA-SLH interacted with HF-EPCS, suggesting that this polypeptide had an affinity for peptidoglycans but not for SCWP. The affinity of rSdbA-SLH for peptidoglycans was confirmed by a binding assay using a peptidoglycan fraction prepared from Escherichia coli cells. The SLH modules of SdbA must be useful for cell surface engineering in bacteria that do not contain SCWP.  相似文献

The thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus produces a modular xylanase (Xyn10A) consisting of two N-terminal carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs), followed by a domain of unknown function, and a catalytic module flanked by a fifth domain. Both Xyn10A CBMs bind calcium ions, and this study explores the effect of these ions on the stability of the full-length enzyme. Xyn10A and truncated forms thereof were produced and their thermostabilities were evaluated under different calcium loads. Studies performed using differential scanning calorimetry showed that the unfolding temperature of the Xyn10A was significantly dependent on the presence of Ca2+, and that the third domain of the enzyme binds at least one Ca2+. Thermal inactivation studies confirmed the role of tightly bound Ca2+ in stabilizing the enzyme, but showed that the presence of a large excess of this ion results in reduced kinetic stability. The truncated forms of Xyn10A were less stable than the full-length enzyme, indicative of module/domain thermostabilizing interactions. Finally, possible roles of the two domains of unknown function are discussed in the light of this study. This is the first report on the thermostabilizing role of calcium on a modular family 10 xylanase that displays multiple calcium binding in three of its five domains/modules.Communicated by G.

We have shown that a xylan-degrading bacterium, W-61, excretes multiple xylanases, including xylanase 5 with a molecular mass of 140 kDa. Here, we emend the previously used classification of the bacterium (i.e., Aeromonas caviae W-61) to Paenibacillus sp. strain W-61 on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene, and we clone and express the xyn5 gene encoding xylanase 5 (Xyn5) in Escherichia coli and study the subcellular localization of Xyn5. xyn5 encodes 1,326 amino acid residues, including a 27-amino-acid signal sequence. Sequence analysis indicated that Xyn5 comprises two family 22 carbohydrate-binding modules (CBM), a family 10 catalytic domain of glycosyl hydrolases, a family 9 CBM, a domain similar to the lysine-rich region of Clostridium thermocellum SdbA, and three S-layer-homologous (SLH) domains. Recombinant Xyn5 bound to a crystalline cellulose, Avicel PH-101, while an N-terminal 90-kDa fragment of Xyn5, which lacks the C-terminal half of the family 9 CBM, did not bind to Avicel PH-101. Xyn5 was cell bound, and the cell-bound protein was digested by exogenous trypsin to produce immunoreactive and xylanolytic fragments with molecular masses of 80 and 60 kDa. Xyn5 was exclusively distributed in the cell envelope fraction consisting of a peptidoglycan-containing layer and an associated S layer. Thus, Paenibacillus sp. strain W-61 Xyn5 is a cell surface-anchored modular xylanase possessing a functional cellulose-binding module and SLH domains. Possible cooperative action of multiple xylanases produced by strain W-61 is discussed on the basis of the modular structure of Xyn5.  相似文献

Two endoxylanases, Nf Xyn11A and Nf Xyn10A, were cloned from a Nonomuraea flexuosa (previously Actinomadura flexuosa) DSM43186 genomic expression library in Escherichia coli. The coding sequences of xyn11A and xyn10A consist of 344 and 492 amino acids, respectively. The catalytic domains belong to family 11 and family 10 of glycoside hydrolases. The C-termini share strong amino acid sequence similarity to carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) families CBM2 and CBM13, respectively. Native Nf Xyn11A, and recombinant Xyn11A expressed in the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei, were purified from cultivation media and characterized. The molecular masses of the full-length enzymes determined by mass spectrometry were 32.9 kDa and 33.4 kDa, the recombinant enzyme having higher molecular mass due to glycosylation. In addition, shorter polypeptides with molecular masses of 23.8 kDa and 22.0 kDa were characterized from the T. reesei culture medium, both lacking the C-terminal CBM and the 22.0 kDa polypeptide also lacking most of the linker region. The recombinant polypeptides were similar to each other in terms of specific activity, pH and temperature dependence. However, the 23.8 kDa and 22.0 kDa polypeptides were more thermostable at 80°C than the full-length enzyme. All polypeptide forms were effective in pretreatment of softwood kraft pulp at 80°C.  相似文献

A thermostable xylanase gene, xyn10A (CAP0053), was cloned from Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824. The nucleotide sequence of the C. acetobutylicum xyn10A gene encoded a 318-amino-acid, single-domain, family 10 xylanase, Xyn10A, with a molecular mass of 34 kDa. Xyn10A exhibited extremely high (92%) amino acid sequence identity with Xyn10B (CAP0116) of this strain and had 42% and 32% identity with the catalytic domains of Rhodothermus marinus xylanase I and Thermoascus aurantiacus xylanase I, respectively. Xyn10A enzyme was purified from recombinant Escherichia coli and was highly active toward oat-spelt and Birchwood xylan and slightly active toward carboxymethyl cellulose, arabinogalactouronic acid, and various p-nitrophenyl monosaccharides. Xyn10A hydrolyzed xylan and xylooligosaccharides larger than xylobiose to produce xylose. This enzyme was optimally active at 60°C and had an optimum pH of 5.0. This is one of a number of related activities encoded on the large plasmid in this strain.  相似文献

Transplantation is useful for elucidating the functions of structural modules and for engineering enzyme properties. Unexpectedly, transplanting a hyper-thermophilic carbohydrate-binding module, CBM9_1-2, into the mesophilic Aspergillus niger GH11 xylanase (Xyn) slightly decreased the thermal inactivation half-life of Xyn. This effect was further investigated by dividing the CBM9_1-2 module into two smaller parts, C1 and C2, which were transplanted into Xyn to create the chimeras Xyn-C1 and Xyn-C2. Both chimeras exhibited higher catalytic activities on xylan than native Xyn. Xyn-C2 exhibited higher binding affinities for both oat spelt and birch wood xylans, and its thermal inactivation half-life (69.3 min) was 4 or 5 times longer than that of Xyn (17.6 min), Xyn-C1 (13.4 min), and the original chimera containing CBM9_1-2 (13.8 min). In contrast, Xyn-C1 exhibited higher binding affinity for oat spelt xylan, but not for birch wood xylan. Through this rational engineering of the fungal xylanase, the C2 sub-module was shown to have a different thermostabilizing effect than the C1 sub-module. The different functions of the smaller parts of a large module can play pivotal roles in transplantation.  相似文献

Two xylanase-encoding genes, named xyn11A and xyn10B, were isolated from a genomic library of Cellulomonas pachnodae by expression in Escherichia coli. The deduced polypeptide, Xyn11A, consists of 335 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 34,383 Da. Different domains could be identified in the Xyn11A protein on the basis of homology searches. Xyn11A contains a catalytic domain belonging to family 11 glycosyl hydrolases and a C-terminal xylan binding domain, which are separated from the catalytic domain by a typical linker sequence. Binding studies with native Xyn11A and a truncated derivative of Xyn11A, lacking the putative binding domain, confirmed the function of the two domains. The second xylanase, designated Xyn10B, consists of 1,183 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 124,136 Da. Xyn10B also appears to be a modular protein, but typical linker sequences that separate the different domains were not identified. It comprises a N-terminal signal peptide followed by a stretch of amino acids that shows homology to thermostabilizing domains. Downstream of the latter domain, a catalytic domain specific for family 10 glycosyl hydrolases was identified. A truncated derivative of Xyn10B bound tightly to Avicel, which was in accordance with the identified cellulose binding domain at the C terminus of Xyn10B on the basis of homology. C. pachnodae, a (hemi)cellulolytic bacterium that was isolated from the hindgut of herbivorous Pachnoda marginata larvae, secretes at least two xylanases in the culture fluid. Although both Xyn11A and Xyn10B had the highest homology to xylanases from Cellulomonas fimi, distinct differences in the molecular organizations of the xylanases from the two Cellulomonas species were identified.  相似文献

Paenibacillus curdlanolyticus B-6 Xyn10D is a xylanase containing a family 3 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM3). Biochemical analyses using recombinant proteins derived from Xyn10D suggested that the CBM3 polypeptide has an affinity for cellulose and xylan and that CBM3 in Xyn10D is important for hydrolysis of insoluble arabinoxylan and natural biomass.  相似文献

A xylanase gene xyn10A was isolated from the human gut bacterium Bacteroides xylanisolvens XB1A and the gene product was characterized. Xyn10A is a 40-kDa xylanase composed of a glycoside hydrolase family 10 catalytic domain with a signal peptide. A recombinant His-tagged Xyn10A was produced in Escherichia coli and purified. It was active on oat spelt and birchwood xylans and on wheat arabinoxylans. It cleaved xylotetraose, xylopentaose, and xylohexaose but not xylobiose, clearly indicating that Xyn10A is a xylanase. Surprisingly, it showed a low activity against carboxymethylcellulose but no activity at all against aryl-cellobioside and cellooligosaccharides. The enzyme exhibited K m and V max of 1.6 mg ml−1 and 118 μmol min−1 mg−1 on oat spelt xylan, and its optimal temperature and pH for activity were 37°C and pH 6.0, respectively. Its catalytic properties (k cat/K m = 3,300 ml mg−1 min−1) suggested that Xyn10A is one of the most active GH10 xylanase described to date. Phylogenetic analyses showed that Xyn10A was closely related to other GH10 xylanases from human Bacteroides. The xyn10A gene was expressed in B. xylanisolvens XB1A cultured with glucose, xylose or xylans, and the protein was associated with the cells. Xyn10A is the first family 10 xylanase characterized from B. xylanisolvens XB1A.  相似文献

A novel, family GH10 enzyme, Xyn10B from Acidothermus cellulolyticus 11B was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. This enzyme was purified to homogeneity by binding to regenerated amorphous cellulose. It had higher binding on Avicel as compared to insoluble xylan due to the presence of cellulose-binding domains, CBM3 and CBM2. This enzyme was optimally active at 70 °C and pH 6.0. It was stable up to 70 °C while the CD spectroscopy analysis showed thermal unfolding at 80 °C. Xyn10B was found to be a trifunctional enzyme having endo-xylanase, arabinofuranosidase and acetyl xylan esterase activities. Its activities against beechwood xylan, p-Nitrophenyl arabinofuranoside and p-Nitrophenyl acetate were found to be 126,480, 10,350 and 17,250 U μmol−1, respectively. Xyn10B was highly active producing xylobiose and xylose as the major end products, as well as debranching the substrates by removing arabinose and acetyl side chains. Due to its specific characteristics, this enzyme seems to be of importance for industrial applications such as pretreatment of poultry cereals, bio-bleaching of wood pulp and degradation of plant biomass.

A Clostridium thermocellum gene, xynX, coding for a xylanase was cloned and the complete nucleotide sequence was determined. The xylanase gene of Clostridium thermocellum consists of an ORF of 3261 nucleotide encoding a xylanase (XynX) of 1087 amino acid residues (116 kDa). Sequence analysis of XynX showed a multidomain structure that consisted of four different domains: an N-terminal thermostabilizing domain homologous to sequences found in several thermophilic enzymes, a catalytic domain homologous to family 10 glycosyl hydrolases, a duplicated cellulose-binding domain (CBD) homologous to family IX CBDs, and a triplicated S-layer homologous domain. A deletion mutant of xynX having only the catalytic region produced a mutant enzyme XynX-C which retained catalytic activity but lost thermostability. In terms of half-life at 70 °C, the thermostability of XynX-C was about six times lower than that of the other mutant enzyme, XynX-TC, produced by a mutant containing both the thermostabilizing domain and the catalytic domain. The optimum temperature of XynX-C was about 5–10 °C lower than that of XynX-TC. Received: 12 January 2000 / Received revision: 24 April 2000 / Accepted: 1 May 2000  相似文献

Members of glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1) cleave glycosidic linkages with a variety of physiological roles. Here we report a unique GH1 member encoded in the genome of Bifidobacterium adolescentis ATCC 15703. This enzyme, BAD0156, was identified from over 2,000 GH1 sequences accumulated in a database by a genome mining approach based on a motif sequence. A recombinant BAD0156 protein was characterized to confirm that this enzyme alone specifically hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl-α-L-arabinofuranoside among the 24 p-nitrophenyl-glycosides examined. Among natural glycosides, α-1,5-linked arabino-oligosaccharides served as substrates, but arabinan, debranched arabinan, arabinoxylan, and arabinogalactan did not. A time course analysis of arabino-oligosaccharide hydrolysis indicated that BAD0156 is an exo-acting enzyme. These results suggest that BAD0156 is an α-L-arabinofuranosidase. This is the first report of a GH1 enzyme that acts specifically on arabinosides, providing information on GH1 substrate specificity.  相似文献

Xylanase Xyn10B from Clostridium thermocellum is a modular enzyme that contains two family 22 carbohydrate binding modules N- (CBM22-1) and C- (CBM22-2) terminal of the family 10 glycoside hydrolase catalytic domain (GH10). In a previous study, we showed that removal of CBM22-1 reduces the resistance to thermoinactivation of the enzyme suggesting that this module is a thermostabilizing domain. Here, we show that it is the module border on the N-terminal side of GH10 that confers resistance to thermoinactivation and to proteolysis. Therefore, CBM22-1 does not function as a thermostabilizing domain and the role for this apparently non-functional CBM remains elusive.  相似文献

The Paenibacillus curdlanolyticus xyn10B gene encoding a family-10 xylanase was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli, and the recombinant enzyme rXyn10B was characterized. Immunological analysis suggested that Xyn10B is an intracellular enzyme. rXyn10B hydrolyzed birch-wood xylan and xylooligosaccharides to produce mainly xylobiose, suggesting that it is an endoxylanase. Its properties were significantly different from those of some homologous enzymes.  相似文献

To improve the thermostability of Trichoderma reesei xylanase 2 (Xyn2), the thermostabilizing domain (A2) from Thermotoga maritima XynA were engineered into the N-terminal region of the Xyn2 protein. The xyn2 and hybrid genes were successfully expressed in Pichia pastoris using the strong methanol inducible alcohol oxidase 1 (AOX1) promoter and the secretion signal sequence from S. cerevisiae (α-factor). The transformants expressed the hybrid gene produced clearly increased both the thermostability and substrate-binding capacity compared to the corresponding strains expressed the native Xyn2 gene. The activity of the hybrid enzyme was highest at 65 °C that was 10 °C higher than the native Xyn2. The hybrid enzyme was stable at 60 °C and retained more than 85% of its activity after 30-min incubation at this temperature. The hybrid enzyme was highly specific toward xylan and analysis of the products from birchwood xylan degradation confirmed that the enzyme was an endo-xylanase with xylobiose and xylotriose as the main degradation products. These attributes should make it an attractive applicant for various applications. Our results also suggested that the N-terminal domain A2 is responsible for both the thermostability and substrate-binding capacity of T. maritima XynA.  相似文献
