Abstract: | A purified extracellular endo β-1,3-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.32) from an isolated strain, Aspergillus terreus A-07, was found to hydrolyze 1,3-xylosyl linkages only. When rhodymenan (β-1,4 and β-1.3-linked xylan) was hydrolyzed by β-1,3-xylanase (EF-6), four β-1,4-linked xylooligosaccharide fractions were produced. The main product was β-1,4-xylotriose, with trace amounts of other β-1,4-linked xylooligosaccharides. Successive degradation by β-l,4-xylosidase of the β,4-xylooligosaccharides that were produced from hydrolysis of β-1,3-xylanase on rhodymenan yielded only xylose as the final product.We compared the action pattern of this enzyme with that of an extracellular endo β-l,4-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) of Streptomyces. From a mixture of products of β-1,4-xylanase hydrolysis on rhodymenan, an isomeric xylotriose was isolated by charcoal chromatography after treating with β-1.4-xylosidase. The structure of this isomeric xylotriose was elucidated by methylation analysis and its susceptibility to β-1,4-xylanase, β-1,3-xylanase, and β-1,4-xylosidase. The obtained isomeric xylotriose was identified as 3-O-β-xylopyranosyl-4-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-D-xylose (X1→3X1→4X). It has a melting point of 224~225°C and (c = 1, H2O)= —46°. |
