Procedures for the production of endo-1,4-β-xylanase have been developed. An active producer—Rhizopus var. microsporus BKMF-595—has been chosen, and the conditions of surface and submerged cultivation, as well as the composition of the culture medium for this strain, have been optimized to ensure maximum yield of the target enzyme. Activity of xylomicrosporin Px equaled 123 U/g, while the activity of xylomicrosporin Gx equaled 25 U/cm3. Homogeneous enzyme preparations, purified 59.44-fold and 72.6-fold, have been obtained. The dependence of endo-1,4-β-xylanase catalytic activity on temperature and pH of the reaction medium has been studied. The enzyme has been shown to be most stable in the pH range 5.0–6.0 and to be thermostable. Amino acid composition and subunit structure of the enzyme were determined; the molecular masses of the subunits equaled 50 and 56 kDa. Carboxyl groups of glutamic and aspartic acid residues of the active center were experimentally shown to play an important role in catalysis. The potential of this enzyme for beer production has been demonstrated.  相似文献

During the screening of xylanolytic enzymes from locally isolated fungi, one strain BCC14405, exhibited high enzyme activity with thermostability. This fugal strain was identified as Aspergillus cf. niger based on its morphological characteristics and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. An enzyme with xylanolytic activity from BCC14405 was later purified and characterized. It was found to have a molecular mass of ca. 21 kDa, an optimal pH of 5.0, and an optimal temperature of 55 degrees C. When tested using xylan from birchwood, it showed K(m) and V(max) values of 8.9 mg/ml and 11,100 U/mg, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by CuSO(4) EDTA, and by FeSO(4) The homology of the 20-residue N-terminal protein sequence showed that the enzyme was an endo-1,4-beta-xylanase. The full-length gene encoding endo-1,4-beta-xylanase from BCC14405 was obtained by PCR amplification of its cDNA. The gene contained an open reading frame of 678 bp, encoding a 225 amino acid protein, which was identical to the endo-1,4-a-xylanase B previously identified in A. niger.  相似文献

Thermoactinomyces thalophilus produced cellulase free extracellular endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) at 50 degrees C and pH 8.5. Maximum xylanase production was achieved in fermentation medium using birchwood xylan as substrate after 96 h of growth at 50 degrees C. Other agricultural substrates such as wheat bran, wheat straw, sugarcane bagasse and cornstover produced less xylanase. The crude enzyme preparation from mutant T. thalophilus P2 grown under optimised fermentation conditions showed no cellulase contamination and maximum xylanase activity of 42 U/ml at 65%deg;C and pH 8.5-9.0. This enzyme with initial xylanase activity of 42 U/ml was found thermostable up to 65 degrees C and retaining 50% of its activity after its incubation for 125 min at 65 degrees C.  相似文献

Two endo-1,4-beta-zylanases (m. w. 24,000 and 41,000) and six exo-1,4-beta-xylosidases, differing in their molecular weights and isoelectric points, were found in a xylanase preparation from Aspergillus niger, using different methods of fractionation. An electrophoretically homogeneous exo-1,4-beta-xylosidase (m. w. 30,000) purified 120-fold, with pI 4.6, having optimal effect on methyl-beta-D-xyloside at pH 3.0 was obtained. Exo-1,4-beta-xylosidase splits off xylose from the ends of the xylan chains at xylotriose, xylobiose and methyl-beta-D-xyloside and is characterized by a high transglycosilase activity. An electrophoretically homogeneous endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (m. w. 24,000) purified 250-fold, with pI 4.2 and optimal effect on carboxymethylxylan at pH 4.2 was isolated. Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase splits arabinoglucuronoxylan to form xylooligosaccharides; however, it does not hydrolyze xylobiose.  相似文献

The induction of the synthesis of secreted enzymes endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) and beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) in the original and recombinant Penicillium canescens strains has been studied. In all producer strains, the synthesis of these enzymes was induced by arabinose and its metabolite arabitol. The two enzymes differed in the concentration of arabinose required for the induction: the synthesis of beta-galactosidase was most pronounced at 1 mM, whereas maximum synthesis of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase was observed at 5 to 10 mM. An increase in the number of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase copies in the high-copy-number strain of the fungus suppressed the synthesis of beta-galactosidase; the synthesis of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase in the high-copy-number recombinant producing beta-galactosidase was affected to a lesser extent. The amount of the enzymes synthesized did not depend on the saccharide used as a sole source of carbon for growing the mycelium prior to its transfer to the inducer-containing medium.  相似文献

The three-dimensional structure of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase II (XYNII) from Trichoderma reesei has been determined by X-ray diffraction techniques and refined to a conventional R-factor of 18.3% at 1.8 A resolution. The 190 amino acid length protein was found to exist as a single domain where the main chain folds to form two mostly antiparallel beta-sheets, which are packed against each other in parallel. The beta-sheet structure is twisted, forming a large cleft on one side of the molecule. The structure of XYNII resembles that of Bacillus 1,3-1,4-beta-glucanase. The cleft is an obvious suggestion for an active site, which has putative binding sites for at least four xylose residues. The catalytic residues are apparently the two glutamic acid residues (Glu86 and Glu177) in the middle of the cleft. One structure was determined at pH 5.0, corresponding to the pH optimum of XYNII. The second structure was determined at pH 6.5, where enzyme activity is reduced considerably. A clear structural change was observed, especially in the position of the side chain of Glu177. The observed conformational change is probably important for the mechanism of catalysis in XYNII.  相似文献

An extracellular xylanase (1,4-beta-D-xylan xylanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.8, endo 1,4-beta-xylanase) was found to be the major protein in the culture filtrate of Penicillium chrysogenum when grown on 1% xylan. In contrast to other microorganism no xylanase multiplicity was found in P. chrysogenum under the conditions used. This enzyme was purified to homogeneity by high performance anion-exchange and size-exclusion chromatography. It had an M(r) of 35,000 as estimated by SDS-PAGE and was shown to be active as a monomer. No glycosylation of the protein could be detected neither by a sensitive glycostain nor by enzymatic deglycosylation studies. The enzyme hydrolyzed oat spelt and birchwood xylan randomly, yielding xylose and xylobiose as major end products. It had no cellulase, CMCase, beta-xylosidase or arabinogalactanase activity but acted on p-nitrophenylcellobioside. The pH and temperature optima for its activity were pH 6.0 and 40 degrees C, respectively. Eight peptides obtained after endoproteinase LysC digestion of xylanase have been sequenced, six of them showed considerable amino acid similarity to glucanases and high M(r)/acidic xylanases from different bacteria, yeasts and fungi.  相似文献

A method of purification of endo-(1-->4)-beta-xylanase (endoxylanase; EC 3.2.1.8) from the culture liquid of Geotrichum candidum 3C, grown for three days, is described. The enzyme purified 23-fold had a specific activity of 32.6 U per mg protein (yield, 14.4%). Endoxylanase was shown to be homogeneous by SDS-PAGE (molecular weight, 60 to 67 kDa). With carboxymethyl xylan as substrate, the optimum activity (determined viscosimetrically) was recorded at pH 4.0 (pI 3.4). The enzyme retained stability at pH 3.0-4.5 and 30-45 degrees C for 1 h. With xylan from beach wood, the hydrolytic activity of the enzyme (ability to saccharify the substrate) was maximum at 50 degrees C. In 72 h of exposure to 0.2 mg/ml endoxylanase, the extent of saccharification of xylans from birch wood, rye grain, and wheat straw amounted to 10, 12, and 7.7%, respectively. At 0.4 mg/ml, the extent of saccharification of birch wood xylan was as high as 20%. In the case of birch wood xylan, the initial hydrolysis products were xylooligosaccharides with degrees of polymerization in excess of four; the end products were represented by xylobiose, xylotriose, xylose, and acid xylooligosaccharides.  相似文献

A beta-1,3-xylanase-producing bacterium, Alcaligenes sp. XY-234, was isolated from the marine environment. The organism produced endo-1,3-beta-xylanase at a high level in the culture fluid. The enzyme was purified 292-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation and several column chromatographies. The final enzyme preparation appeared to be homogeneous on disc gel electrophoresis and SDS-PAGE with a molecular mass of 59 kDa, and the pI was 4.0. The enzyme hydrolyzed beta-1,3-xylan and larger xylooligosaccharides than xylobiose to give several xylooligosaccharides, but it could not hydrolyze xylobiose, p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xyloside, and beta-1,4-xylan. The Km of the enzyme was 4.0 mg/ml. Optimal pH and temperature were 7.5 and 40 degrees C, respectively. It was stable from pH 6.0 to 10 and at a temperature of less than 40 degrees C. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by 1 mM HgCl(2)., AlCl(3), CuCl(2), FeCl(3), HgCl(2), Pb(CH(3)COO) (2), and N-bromosuccinimide.  相似文献

A Fusarium graminearum-based enzyme blend for the efficient hydrolysis of hemicellulose, a crucial step for competitive bioethanol production, is described. The heretofore-uncharacterized endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (XylD), 1,4-beta-xylosidase (XyloA), and bifunctional xylosidase/arabinofuranosidase (Xylo/ArabA) were produced at high levels in Escherichia coli (10-38 mg/l). They displayed compatible pH and temperature-dependences, allowing their utilization for simultaneous substrate digestions. Monosaccharide analysis indicated a strong positive synergism between the enzymes during the degradation of oat spelt xylan. Two units of each protein catalyzed the release of 61% and 15% of the total amount of available d-xylose and l-arabinose, respectively, in only 4 h. The detailed cooperative mechanism of the three hydrolases was elucidated by polysaccharide analysis using carbohydrate gel electrophoresis (PACE) and the enzymes were shown to be suitable for the partial hydrolysis of pretreated crude plant biomass.  相似文献

An enzyme active against carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was purified from the stationary-phase-culture supernatant of Clostridium josui grown in a medium containing ball-milled cellulose. The purification in the presence of 6 M urea yielded homogeneous enzyme after an approximately 50-fold increase in specific activity and a 13% yield. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 45 kilodaltons. The optimal temperature and pH of the enzyme against CMC were 60 degrees C and 6.8, respectively. The enzyme hydrolyzed cellotetraose, cellopentaose, and cellohexaose to cellobiose and cellotriose but did not hydrolyze cellobiose or cellotriose. A microcrystalline cellulose, Avicel, was also hydrolyzed significantly, but the extent of hydrolysis was remarkably less than that of CMC. On the basis of these results, the enzyme purified here is one of the endo-1,4-beta-glucanases. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the enzyme is Tyr-Asp-Ala-Ser-Leu-Lys-Pro-Asn-Leu-Gln-Ile-Pro-Gln-Lys-Asn-Ile-Pro-Asn- Asn-Asp-Ala-Val-Asn-Ile-Lys.  相似文献

Low-molecular-weight xylanase from Trichoderma viride   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
An endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (1,4-beta-D-xylan xylanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.8) has been isolated from a commercial preparation of Trichoderma viride. The molecular weight was 22,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the pI value was 9.3. The xylanase was a true xylanase without cellulase activity. When the N-terminal amino acid sequence of the first 50 residues was compared with that of a xylanase from Schizophyllum commune, strong evidence for homology was found, with more than 50% amino acid identity. T. viride xylanase also possessed extensive identity with a proposed amino-terminal consensus sequence of xylanases from bacteria.  相似文献

Activities of cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes endo-1,4-beta-glucanase, exo-1,4-beta-glucanase, 1,4-beta-glucosidase, endo-1,4-beta-xylanase, 1,4-beta-xylosidase and 1,4-beta-mannosidase and ligninolytic enzymes Mn-peroxidase and laccase were detected during the growth of the white-rot fungus Pleurotus ostreatus on wheat straw in the presence and absence of cadmium. The loss of substrate dry weight and Mn-peroxidase activity decreased with increasing Cd concentration, whereas the activities of endo-1,4-beta-glucanase, 1,4-beta-glucosidase and laccase were highly increased in the presence of metal. The onset of hemicellulose-degrading enzyme activity was delayed in the presence of cadmium. The degradation of a model synthetic dye Poly B-411 did not correspond to the activities of ligninolytic enzymes. This is the first report about 1,4-beta-mannosidase in P. ostreatus.  相似文献

We studied the effects of increase in the number of surface arginines on the enzyme activity and stability of Trichoderma reesei endo-1,4-beta-xylanase II. The number of arginines was increased in two mutant series. The first set contained six arginines on different sides of the protein surface. These arginines had no significant effect on the thermostability. However, the optimal pH region became narrower. Another series of five arginines was engineered into the 'Ser/Thr surface', formed of part of the double-layered beta-sheet located on one side of the 'right-hand-like' xylanase. These mutations shifted the activity profile to the alkaline region by approximately 0.5-1.0 pH units. In addition, the arginines on the Ser/Thr surface increased the enzyme activity at high temperature, although the enzyme stability in the absence of substrate decreased significantly at 50-55 degrees C. In the presence of the substrate, the thermostability increased 4-5-fold at 60-65 degrees C. Thus, the substrate neutralized the destabilizing effect of Ser/Thr surface arginines and revealed a stabilizing effect of the same mutations. The stabilizing effect of arginines at high temperatures was seen clearly only when five arginines were introduced into the Ser/Thr surface.  相似文献

A very simple and sensitive procedure for the determination of the activity of highly purified endo-1,4-beta-glucanase from the microscopic fungus Trichoderma reesei using 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-cellobioside has been developed. The HPLC study has shown that this substrate is cleaved by endo-1,4-beta-glucanase to form predominantly free 4-methylumbelliferone, Km and kcat being 1.25 mM and 7.9 s-1, respectively (30 degrees C, pH 5.0). The possibility of continuous photometric determination of the enzyme using the difference absorptivity coefficient of 1600 M-1 cm-1 at 350 nm has been demonstrated.  相似文献

In cereal-based diets, non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) lower precaecal nutrient absorption and increase endogenous protein and amino acid (AA) losses. Adding exogenous NSP-degrading enzymes aims amongst others to reduce these negative effects and to thereby improve protein and AA supply. However, biased results exist in the literature on their efficacy in growing pigs. Hence, the objective of this study was to analyse the effects of different levels of xylanase and beta-glucanase supplementation. Nitrogen (N) retention from a threonine-limited diet was chosen as an indirect indicator for differences in praecaecal threonine absorption and endogenous protein and AA losses. During three balance periods, 12 male pigs with a bodyweight of 31-66 kg were used in a cross-over design. They received three different diets based on wheat, barley, rye, and soybean meal containing 0, 40 or 80 mg/kg of an enzyme preparation containing endo-1,4,-beta-xylanase and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase. N excretion and retention were identical in animals of the different treatment groups, stressing that enzyme supplementation did not affect threonine absorption and/or endogenous protein and AA losses neither at medium nor at high supplementation level. Hence, in the present trial, beta-glucanase and xylanase addition to cereal diets did not improve protein and AA availability in growing pigs of a body weight > 30 kg.  相似文献

The gene SfXyn10, which encodes a protease-resistant xylanase, was isolated using colony PCR screening from a genomic library of a feather-degrading bacterial strain Streptomyces fradiae var. k11. The full-length gene consists of 1,437 bp and encodes 479 amino acids, which includes 41 residues of a putative signal peptide at its N terminus. The amino acid sequence shares the highest similarity (80%) to the endo-1,4-beta-xylanase from Streptomyces coelicolor A3, which belongs to the glycoside hydrolase family 10. The gene fragment encoding the mature xylanase was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The recombinant protein was purified to homogeneity by acetone precipitation and anion-exchange chromatography, and subsequently characterized. The optimal pH and temperature for the purified recombinant enzyme were 7.8 and 60 degrees , respectively. The enzyme showed stability over a pH range of 4-10. The kinetic values on oat spelt xylan and birchwood xylan substrates were also determined. The enzyme activity was enhanced by Fe2+ and strongly inhibited by Hg2+ and SDS. The enzyme also showed resistance to neutral and alkaline proteases. Therefore, these characteristics suggest that SfXyn10 could be an important candidate for protease-resistant mechanistic research and has potential applications in the food industry, cotton scouring, and improving animal nutrition.  相似文献

1. A 1,4-alpha-glucan phosphorylase from Klebsiella pneumoniae has been purified about 80-fold with an over-all yield greater than 35%. The purified enzyme has been shown to be homogeneous by gel electrophoresis at different pH-values, by isoelectric focusing, by dodecylsulfate electrophoresis and by ultracentrifugation. 2. The molecular weight of the native enzyme has been determined to be 180 000 by ultra-centrifugation studies, in good agreement with the value of 189 000 estimated by gel permeation chromatography. 3. The enzyme dissociates in the presence of 0.1% dodecylsulfate or 5 M guanidine hydrochloride into polypeptide chains. The molecular weight of these polypeptide chains has been found to be 88 000 by dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 99 000 by sedimentation equilibrium studies, indicating that the native enzyme is composed of two polypeptide chains. 4. The enzyme contains pyridoxalphosphate with a stoichiometry of two moles per 180 000 g protein, confirming that the 1,4-alpha-glucan phosphorylase from Klebsiella pneumoniae is a dimeric enzyme. 5. The amino acid composition of the enzyme has been determined, and its correspondence to that of 1,4-alpha-glucan phosphorylases from other sources is discussed. 6. The pI of the enzyme has been shown to be 5.3 and its pH-optimum to be about pH 5.9. The enzyme is stable in the range from pH 5.9 to 10.5.  相似文献
