Abstract
Chaetomium globosum can inhibit the growth of fusarium by means of their extracellular proteins. Two novel β-glucanases, designated Cgglu17A and Cgglu16B, were separated from the supernatant of C. globosum W7 and verified to have the ability to hydrolyze cell walls of Fusarium sporotrichioides MLS-19. Cgglu17A (397 amino acids) was classified as glycoside hydrolase family 17 while Cgglu16B belongs to the family16 (284 amino acids). Recombinant protein Cgglu17A was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli, and the enzymes were purified by affinity chromatography. Maximum activity of Cgglu17A appeared at the pH 5.5 and temperature 50 °C, but Cgglu16B shows the maximum activity at the pH 5.0 and temperature 50 °C. Most of heavy metal ions had inhibition effect on the two enzymes, but Cgglu17A and Cgglu16B were respectively activated by Ba2+ and Mn2+. Cgglu17A exhibited high substrate specificity, almost only catalyzing the cleavage of β-1,3-glycosidic bond, in various polysaccharose, to liberate glucose. However, Cgglu16B showed high catalytic activities to both β-1,3-glycosidic and β-1,3-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Cgglu17A was an exo-glucanase, but Cgglu16B was an endo-glucanase based on hydrolytic properties assay. Both of two enzymes showed potential antifungal activity, and the synergistic effect was observed in the germination experiment of pathogenic fungus. In conclusion, Cgglu17A (exo-1,3-β-glucanase) and Cgglu16B (endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase) were confirmed to play a key role in the process of C. globosum controlling fusarium and have potential application value on industry and agriculture for the first time.

Valuation of the significant hypoglycemic activity of black currant anthocyanin extract by both starch structure transformation and glycosidase activity inhibition. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:132112. [PMID: 38714278 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/09/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of anthocyanin-rich black currant extract (BCE) on the structural properties of starch and the inhibition of glycosidases, gathering data and research evidence to support the use of low glycemic index (GI) foods. The BCE induced a change in the starch crystal structure from A-type to V-type, resulting in a drop in digestibility from 81.41 % to 65.57 %. Furthermore, the inhibitory effects of BCE on glycosidases activity (α-glucosidase: IC50 = 0.13 ± 0.05 mg/mL and α-amylase: IC50 = 2.67 ± 0.16 mg/mL) by inducing a change in spatial conformation were confirmed through in vitro analysis. The presence of a 5'-OH group facilitated the interaction between anthocyanins and receptors of amylose, α-amylase, and α-glucosidase. The glycosyl moiety enhanced the affinity for amylose yet lowered the inhibitory effect on α-amylase. The in vivo analysis demonstrated that BCE resulted in a reduction of 3.96 mM·h in blood glucose levels (Area Under Curve). The significant hypoglycemic activity, particularly the decrease in postprandial blood glucose levels, highlights the potential of utilizing BCE in functional foods for preventing diabetes.

Abstract
Levan-type fructooligosaccharides (LFOS) exhibit significant biological activities and selectively promote the growth of certain beneficial bacteria. Levanase is an important enzyme for LFOS production. In this study, two isoforms of levanases, exo- and endo-type depolymerizing enzymes, from Bacillus subtilis HM7 isolated from Dynastes hercules larvae excrement were cloned, expressed, and characterized. The synergistic effect on the levan hydrolysis and kinetic properties of both isoforms were evaluated, indicating their cooperation in levan metabolism, where the endo-levanase catalyzes a rate-limiting step. In addition, homology models and molecular dynamics simulations revealed the key amino residues of the enzymes for levan binding and catalysis. It was found that both isoforms possessed distinct binding residues in the active sites, suggesting the importance of the specificity of the enzymes. Finally, we demonstrated the potential of endo-type levanase in LFOS synthesis using a one-pot reaction with levansucrase. Overall, this study fills the knowledge gap in understanding levanase's mechanism, making an important contribution to the fields of food science and biotechnology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sulfated fucan has gained interest due to its various physiological activities. Endo-1,3-fucanases are valuable tools for investigating the structure and establishing structure-activity relationships of sulfated fucan. However, the substrate recognition mechanism of endo-1,3-fucanases towards sulfated fucan remains unclear, limiting the application of endo-1,3-fucanases in sulfated fucan research. SCOPE AND APPROACH This study presented the first crystal structure of endo-1,3-fucanase (Fun168A) and its complex with the tetrasaccharide product, utilizing X-ray diffraction techniques. The novel subsite specificity of Fun168A was identified through glycomics and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). KEY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS The structure of Fun168A was determined at 1.92 Å. Residues D206 and E264 acted as the nucleophile and general acid/base, respectively. Notably, Fun168A strategically positioned a series of polar residues at the subsites ranging from -2 to +3, enabling interactions with the sulfate groups of sulfated fucan through salt bridges or hydrogen bonds. Based on the structure of Fun168A and its substrate recognition mechanisms, the novel subsite specificities at the -2 and +2 subsites of Fun168A were identified. Overall, this study provided insight into the structure and substrate recognition mechanism of endo-1,3-fucanase for the first time and offered a valuable tool for further research and development of sulfated fucan.

Kinetics and molecular modeling studies on the inhibition mechanism of GH13 α-glycosidases by small molecule ligands. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:132036.

Abstract
Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors play an important role in Diabetes Mellitus (DM) treatment since they prevent postprandial hyperglycemia. The Glycoside Hydrolase family 13 (GH13) is the major family of enzymes acting on substrates containing α-glucoside linkages, such as maltose and amylose/amylopectin chains in starch. Previously, our group identified glycoconjugate 1H-1,2,3-triazoles (GCTs) inhibiting two GH13 α-glycosidases: yeast maltase (MAL12) and porcine pancreatic amylase (PPA). Here, we combined kinetic studies and computational methods on nine GCTs to characterize their inhibitory mechanism. They all behaved as reversible inhibitors, and kinetic models encompassed noncompetitive and various mechanisms of mixed-type inhibition for both enzymes. Most potent inhibitors displayed Ki values of 30 μM for MAL12 (GPESB16) and 37 μM for PPA (GPESB15). Molecular dynamics and docking simulations indicated that on MAL12, GPESB15 and GPESB16 bind in a cavity adjacent to the active site, while on the PPA, GPESB15 was predicted to bind at the entrance of the catalytic site. Notably, despite its putative location within the active site, the binding of GPESB15 does not obstruct the substrate's access to the cleavage site. Our study contributes to paving the way for developing novel therapeutic strategies for managing DM-2 through GH13 α-glycosidases inhibition.

Abstract
To understand the role of the X25 domains of the amylopullulanase enzyme from Thermoanaerobacter brockii brockii (T. brockii brockii), four truncated variants that are TbbApuΔX25-1-SH3 (S130-A1484), TbbApuΔX25-2-SH3 (T235-A1484), TbbApuΔX25-1-CBM20 (S130-P1254), and TbbApuΔX25-2-CBM20 (T235-P1254) were constructed, expressed and characterized together with the SH3 and CBM20 domain truncated variants (TbbApuΔSH3 (V1-A1484) and TbbApuΔCBM20 (V1-P1254). TbbApuΔSH3 showed improved affinity and specificity for both pullulan and soluble starch than full-length TbbApu with lower Km and higher kcat/Km values. It indicates that SH3 is a disposable domain without any effect on the activity and stability of the enzyme. However, TbbApuΔX25-1-SH3, TbbApuΔX25-2-SH3, TbbApuΔX25-1-CBM20, TbbApuΔX25-2-CBM20 (T235-P1254) and TbbApuΔCBM20 showed higher Km and lower kcat/Km values than TbbApuΔSH3 to both soluble starch and pullulan. It specifies that the X25 domains and CBM20 play an important role in both α-amylase and pullulanase activity. Also, it is revealed that while truncation of the CBM20 domain as starch binding domain (SBD) did not affect on raw starch binding ability of the enzyme, truncation of both X25 domains caused almost complete loss of the raw starch binding ability of the enzyme. All these results enlightened the function of the X25 domains that play a more crucial role than CBM20 in the enzyme's binding to raw starch and also play a crucial role in its activity.

Improvement of thermostability by increasing rigidity in the finger regions and flexibility in the catalytic pocket area of Pseudoalteromonas porphyrae κ-carrageenase.

Abstract
Poor thermostability reduces the industrial application value of κ-carrageenase. In this study, the PoPMuSiC algorithm combined with site-directed mutagenesis was applied to improve the thermostability of the alkaline κ-carrageenase from Pseudoalteromonas porphyrae. The mutant E154A with improved thermal stability was successfully obtained using this strategy after screening seven rationally designed mutants. Compared with the wild-type κ-carrageenase (WT), E154A improved the activity by 29.4% and the residual activity by 51.6% after treatment at 50 °C for 30 min. The melting temperature (Tm) values determined by circular dichroism were 66.4 °C and 64.6 °C for E154A and WT, respectively. Molecular dynamics simulation analysis of κ-carrageenase showed that the flexibility decreased within the finger regions (including F1, F2, F3, F5 and F6) and the flexibility improved in the catalytic pocket area of the mutant E154A. The catalytic tunnel dynamic simulation analysis revealed that E154A led to enlarged catalytic tunnel volume and increased rigidity of the enzyme-substrate complex. The increasing rigidity within the finger regions and more flexible catalytic pocket of P. porphyrae κ-carrageenase might be a significant factor for improvement of the thermostability of the mutant κ-carrageenase E154A. The proposed rational design strategy could be applied to improve the enzyme kinetic stability of other industrial enzymes. Moreover, the hydrolysates of κ-carrageenan digested by the mutant E154A demonstrated increased scavenging activities against hydroxyl (OH) radicals and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radicals compared with the undigested κ-carrageenan.

Abstract
Polysaccharide Utilization Loci (PULs) are physically linked gene clusters conserved in the Gram-negative phylum of Bacteroidota and are valuable sources for Carbohydrate Active enZyme (CAZyme) discovery. This study focuses on BD-β-Gal, an enzyme encoded in a metagenomic PUL and member of the Glycoside Hydrolase family 154 (GH154). BD-β-Gal showed exo-β-galactosidase activity with regiopreference for hydrolyzing β-d-(1,6) glycosidic linkages. Notably, it exhibited a preference for d-glucopyranosyl (d-Glcp) over d-galactopyranosyl (d-Galp) and d-fructofuranosyl (d-Fruf) at the reducing end of the investigated disaccharides. In addition, we determined the high resolution crystal structure of BD-β-Gal, thus providing the first structural characterization of a GH154 enzyme. Surprisingly, this revealed an (α/α)6 topology, which has not been observed before for β-galactosidases. BD-β-Gal displayed low structural homology with characterized CAZymes, but conservation analysis suggested that the active site was located in a central cavity, with conserved E73, R252, and D253 as putative catalytic residues. Interestingly, BD-β-Gal has a tetrameric structure and a flexible loop from a neighboring protomer may contribute to its reaction specificity. Finally, we showed that the founding member of GH154, BT3677 from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, described as β-glucuronidase, displayed exo-β-galactosidase activity like BD-β-Gal but lacked a tetrameric structure.

Abstract
When grapes are exposed to wildfire smoke, certain smoke-related volatile phenols (VPs) can be absorbed into the fruit, where they can be then converted into volatile-phenol (VP) glycosides through glycosylation. These volatile-phenol glycosides can be particularly problematic from a winemaking standpoint as they can be hydrolyzed, releasing volatile phenols, which can contribute to smoke-related off-flavors. Current methods for quantitating these volatile-phenol glycosides present several challenges, including the requirement of expensive capital equipment, limited accuracy due to the molecular complexity of the glycosides, and the utilization of harsh reagents. To address these challenges, we proposed an enzymatic hydrolysis method enabled by a tailored enzyme cocktail of novel glycosidases discovered through genome mining, and the generated VPs from VP glycosides can be quantitated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The enzyme cocktails displayed high activities and a broad substrate scope when using commercially available VP glycosides as the substrates for testing. When evaluated in an industrially relevant matrix of Cabernet Sauvignon wine and grapes, this enzymatic cocktail consistently achieved a comparable efficacy of acid hydrolysis. The proposed method offers a simple, safe, and affordable option for smoke taint analysis.

Abstract
This study focuses on pectin covalently linked in cell walls from two sources, apples and carrots, that was extracted using diluted alkali, and it describes changes in the rheological properties of diluted alkali-soluble pectin (DASP) due to enzymatic treatment. Given DASP's richness of rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I), RG-I acetyl esterase (RGAE), rhamnogalacturonan endolyase (RGL), and arabinofuranosidase (ABF) were employed in various combinations for targeted degradation of RG-I pectin chains. Enzymatic degradations were followed by structural studies of pectin molecules using atomic force microscopy (AFM) as well as measurements of rheological and spectral properties. AFM imaging revealed a significant increase in the length of branched molecules after incubation with ABF, suggesting that arabinose side chains limit RG-I aggregation. Structural modifications were confirmed by changes in the intensity of bands in the pectin fingerprint and anomeric region on Fourier transform infrared spectra. ABF treatment led to a decrease in the stability of pectic gels, while the simultaneous use of ABF, RGAE, and RGL enzymes did not increase the degree of aggregation compared to the control sample. These findings suggest that the association of pectin chains within the DASP fraction may rely significantly on intermolecular interactions. Two mechanisms are proposed, which involve side chains as short-range attachment points or an extended linear homogalacturonan conformation favoring inter-chain interactions over self-association.

Abstract
β-N-Acetylgalactosamine-containing glycans play essential roles in several biological processes, including cell adhesion, signal transduction, and immune responses. β-N-Acetylgalactosaminidases hydrolyze β-N-acetylgalactosamine linkages of various glycoconjugates. However, their biological significance remains ambiguous, primarily because only one type of enzyme, exo-β-N-acetylgalactosaminidases that specifically act on β-N-acetylgalactosamine residues, has been documented to date. In this study, we identify four groups distributed among all three domains of life and characterize eight β-N-acetylgalactosaminidases and β-N-acetylhexosaminidase through sequence-based screening of deep-sea metagenomes and subsequent searching of public protein databases. Despite low sequence similarity, the crystal structures of these enzymes demonstrate that all enzymes share a prototype structure and have diversified their substrate specificities (oligosaccharide-releasing, oligosaccharide/monosaccharide-releasing, and monosaccharide-releasing) through the accumulation of mutations and insertional amino acid sequences. The diverse β-N-acetylgalactosaminidases reported in this study could facilitate the comprehension of their structures and functions and present evolutionary pathways for expanding their substrate specificity.

Abstract
This investigation aimed to scrutinize the chemical and structural analogies between chitosan extracted from crab exoskeleton (High Molecular Weight Chitosan, HMWC) and chitosan obtained from mushrooms (Mushroom-derived Chitosan, MRC), and to assess their biological functionalities. The resulting hydrolysates from the hydrolysis of HMWC by chitosanase were categorized as chitosan oligosaccharides (csCOS), while those from MRC were denoted as mrCOS. The molecular weights (MW) of csCOS and mrCOS were determined using Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time-of-Flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Furthermore, structural resemblances of csCOS and mrCOS were assessed utilizing X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Intriguingly, no apparent structural disparity between csCOS and mrCOS was noted in terms of the glucosamine (GlcN) and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) composition ratios. Consequently, the enzymatic activities of chitosanase for HMWC and MRC exhibited remarkable similarity. A topological examination was performed between the enzyme and the substrate to deduce the alteration in MW of COSs following enzymatic hydrolysis. Moreover, the evaluation of antioxidant activity for each COS revealed insignificance in the structural disparity between HMWC and MRC. In summary, grounded on the chemical structural similarity of HMWC and MRC, we propose the potential substitution of HMWC with MRC, incorporating diverse biological functionalities.

Abstract
Natural ginsenoside needs to be converted into rare ginsenoside before it can be readily absorbed into the bloodstream for action. In this study, an α-l-arabinofuranosidase (α-l-AFase) gene Bsafs2 was cloned from Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis). Bsafs2 was ligated to the expression vector pET28a(+), and the expression vector was constructed and transformed into Escherichia coli (E. coli) BL21 heterologous recombinant expression to obtain α-l-AFase. α-l-AFase can hydrolyze at the C20 site of Ginsenoside Rc to obtain rare ginsenoside Rd. Studies on the enzymatic property showed that α-l-AFase had good tolerance to ethanol, glucose, and l-arabinose. The optimum temperature of α-l-AFase was 40 °C and pH = 5.5. Kinetic parameters Km of α-l-AFase for pNPαAraf and Ginsenoside Rc were 1.93 and 8.9 mmol/L, the Vmax were 26 and 154 μmol/min/mg, the Kcat were 24.14 and 1.48 S-1, respectively. This study provides the enzyme source for the biotransformation of Ginsenoside Rc.

Abstract
The multiscale structure, gel strength and digestibility of rice starch modified by the two-step modification of pullulanase (PUL) pretreatment and transglucosidase (TG) treatment for 6, 12, 18 and 24 h were investigated. The debranching hydrolysis of PUL produced some linear chains, which rearranged to form stable crystalline structures, reducing the digestible starch content, but weakening the gel strength. TG treatment connected some short chains to longer linear chains via α-1,6-glycosidic bonds, generating the structures of linear chain with fewer branches. The short branches promoted the interaction between starch molecules to form a more compact three-dimensional gel network structure, showing higher hardness and springiness. Moreover, these chains could form more stable crystals, reducing the digestible starch content, and the increase of branching degree inhibited digestive enzyme hydrolysis, reducing the digestion rate. The multiscale structure of starch tended to stabilize after TG treatment for 18 h, which could form a gel with stronger strength and lower digestibility than native starch gel. Therefore, the two-step modification of PUL and TG was an effective way to change the structure of rice starch to improve the gel strength and reduce the digestibility.

N-terminal domain truncation yielded a unique dimer of polysaccharide hydrolase with enhanced enzymatic activity, stability and calcium ion independence. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131352. [PMID: 38574926 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 03/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
Domain engineering, including domain truncation, fusion, or swapping, has become a common strategy to improve properties of enzymes, especially glycosyl hydrolases. However, there are few reports explaining the mechanism of increased activity from a protein structure perspective. Amy703 is an alkaline amylase with a unique N-terminal domain. Prior studies have shown that N-Amy, a mutant without an N-terminal domain, exhibits improved activity, stability, and calcium ion independence. In this study, we have used X-ray crystallography to determine the crystal structure of N-Amy and used AlphaFold2 to model the Amy703 structure, respectively. We further used size exclusion chromatography to show that Amy703 existed as a monomer, whereas N-Amy formed a unique dimer. It was found that the N-terminus of one monomer of N-Amy was inserted into the catalytic domain of its symmetrical subunit, resulting in the expansion of the catalytic pocket. This also significantly increased the pKa of the hydrogen donor Glu350, thereby enhancing substrate binding affinity and contributing to increased N-Amy activity. Meanwhile, two calcium ions were found to bind to N-Amy at different binding sites, which also contributed to the stability of protein. Therefore, this study provided new structural insights into the mechanisms of various glycosyl hydrolases.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131413.

Abstract
β-1,3-Galactanases selectively degrade β-1,3-galactan, thus it is an attractive enzyme technique to map high-galactan structure and prepare galactooligosaccharides. In this work, a gene encoding exo-β-1,3-galactanase (PxGal43) was screened form Paenibacillus xylanexedens, consisting of a GH43 domain, a CBM32 domain and α-L-arabinofuranosidase B (AbfB) domain. Using β-1,3-galactan (AG-II-P) as substrate, the recombined enzyme expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) exhibited an optimal activity at pH 7.0 and 30 °C. The enzyme was thermostable, retaining >70 % activity after incubating at 50 °C for 2 h. In addition, it showed high tolerance to various metal ions, denaturants and detergents. Substrate specificity indicated that PxGal43 hydrolysis only β-1,3-linked galactosyl oligosaccharides and polysaccharides, releasing galactose as an exo-acting manner. The function of the CBM32 and AbfB domain was revealed by their sequential deletion and suggested that their connection to the catalytic domain was crucial for the oligomerization, catalytic activity, substrate binding and thermal stability of PxGal43. The substrate docking and site-directed mutagenesis proposed that Glu191, Gln244, Asp138 and Glu81 served as the catalytic acid, catalytic base, pKa modulator, and substrate identifier in PxGal43, respectively. These results provide a better understanding and optimization of multi-domain bacterial GH43 β-1,3-galactanase for the degradation of arabinogalactan.

The CBM91 module enhances the activity of β-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase PphXyl43B from Paenibacillus physcomitrellae XB by adopting a unique loop conformation at the top of the active pocket. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131275.

Abstract
Carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) family 91 is a novel module primarily associated with glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 43 enzymes. However, our current understanding of its function remains limited. PphXyl43B is a β-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase bifunctional enzyme from physcomitrellae patens XB belonging to the GH43_11 subfamily and containing CBM91 at its C terminus. To fully elucidate the contributions of the CBM91 module, the truncated proteins consisting only the GH43_11 catalytic module (rPphXyl43B-dCBM91) and only the CBM91 module (rCBM91) of PphXyl43B were constructed, respectively. The result showed that rPphXyl43B-dCBM91 completely lost hydrolysis activity against both p-nitrophenyl-β-D-xylopyranoside and p-nitrophenyl-α-L-arabinofuranoside; it also exhibited significantly reduced activity towards xylobiose, xylotriose, oat spelt xylan and corncob xylan compared to the control. Thus, the CBM91 module is crucial for the β-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase activities in PphXyl43B. However, rCBM91 did not exhibit any binding capability towards corncob xylan. Structural analysis indicated that CBM91 of PphXyl43B might adopt a loop conformation (residues 496-511: ILSDDYVVQSYGGFFT) to actively contribute to the catalytic pocket formation rather than substrate binding capability. This study provides important insights into understanding the function of CBM91 and can be used as a reference for analyzing the action mechanism of GH43_11 enzymes and their application in biomass energy conversion.

Abstract
The IgG-specific endoglycosidases EndoS and EndoS2 from Streptococcus pyogenes can remove conserved N-linked glycans present on the Fc region of host antibodies to inhibit Fc-mediated effector functions. These enzymes are therefore being investigated as therapeutics for suppressing unwanted immune activation, and have additional application as tools for antibody glycan remodeling. EndoS and EndoS2 differ in Fc glycan substrate specificity due to structural differences within their catalytic glycosyl hydrolase domains. However, a chimeric EndoS enzyme with a substituted glycosyl hydrolase from EndoS2 loses catalytic activity, despite high structural homology between the two enzymes, indicating either mechanistic divergence of EndoS and EndoS2, or improperly-formed domain interfaces in the chimeric enzyme. Here, we present the crystal structure of the EndoS2-IgG1 Fc complex determined to 3.0 Å resolution. Comparison of complexed and unliganded EndoS2 reveals relative reorientation of the glycosyl hydrolase, leucine-rich repeat and hybrid immunoglobulin domains. The conformation of the complexed EndoS2 enzyme is also different when compared to the earlier EndoS-IgG1 Fc complex, and results in distinct contact surfaces between the two enzymes and their Fc substrate. These findings indicate mechanistic divergence of EndoS2 and EndoS. It will be important to consider these differences in the design of IgG-specific enzymes, developed to enable customizable antibody glycosylation.

FEBS J 2024; 291:2009-2022.

Abstract
Laminaripentaose (L5)-producing β-1,3-glucanases can preferentially cleave the triple-helix curdlan into β-1,3-glucooligosaccharides, especially L5. In this study, a newly identified member of the glycoside hydrolase family 64, β-1,3-glucanase from Streptomyces pratensis (SpGlu64A), was functionally and structurally characterized. SpGlu64A shared highest identity (30%) with a β-1,3-glucanase from Streptomyces matensis. The purified SpGlu64A showed maximal activity at pH 7.5 and 50 °C, and exhibited strict substrate specificity toward curdlan (83.1 U·mg-1). It efficiently hydrolyzed curdlan to produce L5 as the end product. The overall structure of SpGlu64A consisted of a barrel domain and a mixed (α/β) domain, which formed an unusually wide groove with a crescent-like structure. In the two complex structures (SpGlu64A-L3 and SpGlu64A-L4), two oligosaccharide chains were captured and the triple-helical structure was relatively compatible with the wide groove, which suggested the possibility of binding to the triple-helical β-1,3-glucan. A catalytic framework (β6-β9-β10) and the steric hindrance formed by the side chains of residues Y161, N163, and H393 in the catalytic groove were predicted to complete the exotype-like cleavage manner. On the basis of the structure, a fusion protein with the CBM56 domain (SpGlu64A-CBM) and a mutant (Y161F; by site-directed mutation) were obtained, with 1.2- and 1.7-fold increases in specific activity, respectively. Moreover, the combined expression of SpGlu64A-CBM and -Y161F improved the enzyme activity by 2.63-fold. The study will not only be helpful in understanding the reaction mechanism of β-1,3-glucanases but will also provide a basis for further enzyme engineering.

Abstract
Bacterial α-1,3-glucanase, classified as glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 87, has been divided into 3 subgroups based on differences in gene sequences in the catalytic domain. The enzymatic properties of subgroups 1 and 3 of several bacteria have been previously investigated and reported; however, the chemical characterization of subgroup 2 enzymes has not been previously conducted. The α-1,3-glucanase gene from Paenibacillus alginolyticus NBRC15375 (PaAgl) belonging to subgroup 2 of GH family 87 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. PgAgl-N1 (subgroup 3) and PgAgl-N2 (subgroup 1) from P. glycanilyticus NBRC16188 were expressed in E. coli, and their enzymatic characteristics were compared. The amino acid sequence of PaAgl demonstrated that the homology was significantly lower in other subgroups when only the catalytic domain was compared. The oligosaccharide products of the mutan-degrading reaction seemed to have different characteristics among subgroups 1, 2, and 3 in GH family 87.

Abstract
Glycosylation, a crucial and the most common post-translational modification, coordinates a multitude of biological functions through the attachment of glycans to proteins and lipids. This process, predominantly governed by glycosyltransferases (GTs) and glycoside hydrolases (GHs), decides not only biomolecular functionality but also protein stability and solubility. Mutations in these enzymes have been implicated in a spectrum of diseases, prompting critical research into the structural and functional consequences of such genetic variations. This study compiles an extensive dataset from ClinVar and UniProt, providing a nuanced analysis of 2603 variants within 343 GT and GH genes. We conduct thorough MTR score analyses for the proteins with the most documented variants using MTR3D-AF2 via AlphaFold2 (AlphaFold v2.2.4) predicted protein structure, with the analyses indicating that pathogenic mutations frequently correlate with Beta Bridge secondary structures. Further, the calculation of the solvent accessibility score and variant visualisation show that pathogenic mutations exhibit reduced solvent accessibility, suggesting the mutated residues are likely buried and their localisation is within protein cores. We also find that pathogenic variants are often found proximal to active and binding sites, which may interfere with substrate interactions. We also incorporate computational predictions to assess the impact of these mutations on protein function, utilising tools such as mCSM to predict the destabilisation effect of variants. By identifying these critical regions that are prone to disease-associated mutations, our study opens avenues for designing small molecules or biologics that can modulate enzyme function or compensate for the loss of stability due to these mutations.

Abstract
MAIN CONCLUSION Carbohydrates are hydrolyzed by a family of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) called glycosidases or glycosyl hydrolases. Here, we have summarized the roles of various plant defense glycosidases that possess different substrate specificities. We have also highlighted the open questions in this research field. Glycosidases or glycosyl hydrolases (GHs) are a family of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds in carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. Compared to those of all other sequenced organisms, plant genomes contain a remarkable diversity of glycosidases. Plant glycosidases exhibit activities on various substrates and have been shown to play important roles during pathogen infections. Plant glycosidases from different GH families have been shown to act upon pathogen components, host cell walls, host apoplastic sugars, host secondary metabolites, and host N-glycans to mediate immunity against invading pathogens. We could classify the activities of these plant defense GHs under eleven different mechanisms through which they operate during pathogen infections. Here, we have provided comprehensive information on the catalytic activities, GH family classification, subcellular localization, domain structure, functional roles, and microbial strategies to regulate the activities of defense-related plant GHs. We have also emphasized the research gaps and potential investigations needed to advance this topic of research.

Efficient biosynthesis of prunin in methanol cosolvent system by an organic solvent-tolerant α-L-rhamnosidase from Spirochaeta thermophila. Enzyme Microb Technol 2024; 175:110410.

Abstract
Prunin of desirable bioactivity and bioavailability can be transformed from plant-derived naringin by the key enzyme α-L-rhamnosidase. However, the production was limited by unsatisfactory properties of α-L-rhamnosidase such as thermostability and organic solvent tolerance. In this study, biochemical characteristics, and hydrolysis capacity of a novel α-L-rhamnosidase from Spirochaeta thermophila (St-Rha) were investigated, which was the first characterized α-L-rhamnosidase for Spirochaeta genus. St-Rha showed a higher substrate specificity towards naringin and exhibited excellent thermostability and methanol tolerance. The Km of St-Rha in the methanol cosolvent system was decreased 7.2-fold comparing that in the aqueous phase system, while kcat/Km value of St-Rha was enhanced 9.3-fold. Meanwhile, a preliminary conformational study was implemented through comparative molecular dynamics simulation analysis to explore the mechanism underlying the methanol tolerance of St-Rha for the first time. Furthermore, the catalytic ability of St-Rha for prunin preparation in the 20% methanol cosolvent system was explored, and 200 g/L naringin was transformed into 125.5 g/L prunin for 24 h reaction with a corresponding space-time yield of 5.2 g/L/h. These results indicated that St-Rha was a novel α-L-rhamnosidase suitable for hydrolyzing naringin in the methanol cosolvent system and provided a better alternative for improving the efficient production yield of prunin.

Abstract
Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are industrially important enzymes that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds in glycoconjugates. In this study, we found a GH3 β-glucosidase (CcBgl3B) from Cellulosimicrobium cellulans sp. 21 was able to selectively hydrolyze the β-1,6-glucosidic bond linked glucose of ginsenosides. X-ray crystallographic studies of the ligand complex ginsenoside-specific β-glucosidase provided a novel finding that support the catalytic mechanism of GH3. The substrate was clearly identified within the catalytic center of wild-type CcBgl3B, revealing that the C1 atom of the glucose was covalently bound to the Oδ1 group of the conserved catalytic nucleophile Asp264 as an enzyme-glycosyl intermediate. The glycosylated Asp264 could be identified by mass spectrometry. Through site-directed mutagenesis studies with Asp264, it was found that the covalent intermediate state formed by Asp264 and the substrate was critical for catalysis. In addition, Glu525 variants (E525A, E525Q and E525D) showed no or marginal activity against pNPβGlc; thus, this residue could supply a proton for the reaction. Overall, our study provides an insight into the catalytic mechanism of the GH3 enzyme CcBgl3B.

Abstract
Hemicellulases are enzymes that hydrolyze hemicelluloses, common polysaccharides in nature. Thermophilic hemicellulases, derived from microbial strains, are extensively studied as natural biofuel sources due to the complex structure of hemicelluloses. Recent research aims to elucidate the catalytic principles, mechanisms and specificity of hemicellulases through investigations into their high-temperature stability and structural features, which have applications in biotechnology and industry. This review article targets to serve as a comprehensive resource, highlighting the significant progress in the field and emphasizing the vital role of thermophilic hemicellulases in eco-friendly catalysis. The primary goal is to improve the reliability of hemicellulase enzymes obtained from thermophilic bacterial strains. Additionally, with their ability to break down lignocellulosic materials, hemicellulases hold immense potential for biofuel production. Despite their potential, the commercial viability is hindered by their high enzyme costs, necessitating the development of efficient bioprocesses involving waste pretreatment with microbial consortia to overcome this challenge.
