Abstract
Lignocellulosic substrates are widely available but not easily applied in biogas production due to their poor anaerobic degradation. The effect of bioaugmentation by anaerobic hydrolytic bacteria on biogas production was determined by the biochemical methane potential assay. Microbial biomass from full scale upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor treating brewery wastewater was a source of active microorganisms and brewery spent grain a model lignocellulosic substrate. Ruminococcus flavefaciens 007C, Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans Mz5(T), Fibrobacter succinogenes S85 and Clostridium cellulovorans as pure and mixed cultures were used to enhance the lignocellulose degradation and elevate the biogas production. P. xylanivorans Mz5(T) was the most successful in elevating methane production (+17.8%), followed by the coculture of P. xylanivorans Mz5(T) and F. succinogenes S85 (+6.9%) and the coculture of C. cellulovorans and F. succinogenes S85 (+4.9%). Changes in microbial community structure were detected by fingerprinting techniques.

Identification of GH10 xylanases in strains 2 and Mz5 of Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans. Folia Microbiol (Praha) 2014; 59:507-14. [PMID: 24942109 DOI: 10.1007/s12223-014-0329-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2013] [Accepted: 06/11/2014] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Genes encoding glycosyl hydrolase family 11 (GH11) xylanases and xylanases have been identified from Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans. In contrast, little is known about the diversity and distribution of the GH10 xylanase in strains of P. xylanivorans. Xylanase and associated activities of P. xylanivorans have been characterized in detail in the type strain, Mz5. The aim of the present study was to identify GH10 xylanase genes in strains 2 and Mz5 of P. xylanivorans. In addition, we evaluated degradation and utilization of xylan by P. xylanivorans 2 isolated from rumen of Creole goats. After a 12-h culture, P. xylanivorans 2 was able to utilize up to 53% of the total pentose content present in birchwood xylan (BWX) and to utilize up to 62% of a ethanol-acetic acid-soluble fraction prepared from BWX. This is the first report describing the presence of GH10 xylanase-encoding genes in P. xylanivorans. Strain 2 and Mz5 contained xylanases which were related to GH10 xylanase of Butyrivibrio sp. Identifying xylanase-encoding genes and activity of these enzymes are a step toward understanding possible functional role of P. xylanivorans in the rumen ecosystem and contribute to providing an improved choice of enzymes for improving fiber digestion in ruminant animals, agricultural biomass utilization for biofuel production, and other industries.

Abstract
We isolated and identified functional groups of bacteria in the rumen of Creole goats involved in ruminal fermentation of native forage shrubs. The functional bacterial groups were evaluated by comparing the total viable, total anaerobic, cellulolytic, hemicellulolytic, and amylolytic bacterial counts in the samples taken from fistulated goats fed native forage diet (Atriplex lampa and Prosopis flexuosa). Alfalfa hay and corn were used as control diet. The roll tubes method increased the possibility of isolating and 16S rDNA gene sequencing allowed definitive identification of bacterial species involved in the ruminal fermentation. The starch and fiber contents of the diets influenced the number of total anaerobic bacteria and fibrolytic and amylolytic functional groups. Pseudobutyrivibrio ruminis and Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans were the main species isolated and identified. The identification of bacterial strains involved in the rumen fermentation helps to explain the ability of these animals to digest fiber plant cell wall contained in native forage species.

Abstract
The rumen bacterium Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans Mz5T has a potent xylanolytic enzyme system. A small native peptide (approximately 30-kDa, designated Xyn11A) from the bacterium was first isolated and characterized by Edman degradation. The gene coding for Xyn11A was identified using PCR amplification with consensus primers. It was then fully sequenced to reveal an open reading frame of 1809 bp. The predicted N-terminal domain exhibited xylanolytic activity and was classed to the family 11 of glycosyl hydrolases; it is followed by a region with homology to a family 6 cellulose binding module. The C-terminal domain codes for a putative NodB-like polysaccharide deacetylase which is predicted to be an acetyl esterase implicated in debranching activity in the xylan backbone. As similar domain organization was also found in several other xylanases from a diverse range of bacteria, a common ancestor of such a xylanase is considered to be present and spread, possibly by horizontal gene transfer, to other microorganisms from different ecological niches.

Abstract
Endoglucanase and xylanase activities of three rumen protozoa, Polyplastron multivesiculatum, Eudiplodinium maggii, and Entodinium sp. were compared qualitatively by zymograms and quantitatively by measuring specific activities against different polysaccharides. A set of carboxymethylcellulases and xylanases was produced by the large ciliates whereas no band of activity was observed for Entodinium sp. in zymograms. Specific activity of endoglucanases from P. multivesiculatum (1.3 micromol mg prot(-1) min(-1)) was twice that of E. maggii, whereas xylanase specific activity (4.5 micromol mg prot(-1) min(-1)) was only half. Very weak activities were observed for Entodinium sp. A new xylanase gene, xyn11D, from P. multivesiculatum was reported and its gene product compared to 33 other family 11 xylanases. Phylogenetic analysis showed that xylanase sequences from rumen protozoa are closely related to those of bacteria.

Abstract
A strain of Aspergillus giganteus cultivated in a medium with xylan produced two xylanases (xylanase I and II) which were purified to homogeneity. Their molar mass, estimated by SDS-PAGE, were 21 and 24 kDa, respectively. Both enzymes are glycoproteins with 50 degrees C temperature optimum; optimum pH was 6.0-6.5 for xylanase I and 6.0 for xylanase II. At 50 degrees C xylanase I exhibited higher thermostability than xylanase II. Hg2+, Cu2+ and SDS were strong inhibitors, 1,4-dithiothreitol stimulated the reaction of both enzymes. Both xylanases are xylan-specific; kinetic parameters indicated higher efficiency in the hydrolysis of oat spelts xylan. In hydrolysis of this substrate, xylotriose, xylotetraose and larger xylooligosaccharides were released and hence the enzymes were classified as endoxylanases.

Abstract
The degradation of plant cell walls by ruminants is of major economic importance in the developed as well as developing world. Rumen fermentation is unique in that efficient plant cell wall degradation relies on the cooperation between microorganisms that produce fibrolytic enzymes and the host animal that provides an anaerobic fermentation chamber. Increasing the efficiency with which the rumen microbiota degrades fiber has been the subject of extensive research for at least the last 100 years. Fiber digestion in the rumen is not optimal, as is supported by the fact that fiber recovered from feces is fermentable. This view is confirmed by the knowledge that mechanical and chemical pretreatments improve fiber degradation, as well as more recent research, which has demonstrated increased fiber digestion by rumen microorganisms when plant lignin composition is modified by genetic manipulation. Rumen microbiologists have sought to improve fiber digestion by genetic and ecological manipulation of rumen fermentation. This has been difficult and a number of constraints have limited progress, including: (a) a lack of reliable transformation systems for major fibrolytic rumen bacteria, (b) a poor understanding of ecological factors that govern persistence of fibrolytic bacteria and fungi in the rumen, (c) a poor understanding of which glycolyl hydrolases need to be manipulated, and (d) a lack of knowledge of the functional genomic framework within which fiber degradation operates. In this review the major fibrolytic organisms are briefly discussed. A more extensive discussion of the enzymes involved in fiber degradation is included. We also discuss the use of plant genetic manipulation, application of free-living lignolytic fungi and the use of exogenous enzymes. Lastly, we will discuss how newer technologies such as genomic and metagenomic approaches can be used to improve our knowledge of the functional genomic framework of plant cell wall degradation in the rumen.

Abstract
Rumen bacterium Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans strain Mz5T possessed a potent xylanolytic enzyme system consisting of at least 7 different xylan hydrolases with molar mass 27-145 kDa. Three of them were successfully isolated in active native form. This strain produced butyrate and lactate on different saccharides. cis-9, trans-11-Conjugated linoleic acid was also detected in the culture medium. Bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances of Mz5T were active against some strains of rumen bacteria and against selected Salmonella and E. coli isolates from poultry meat. The strain Mz5T retained viability and xylanolytic activity also under not fully anaerobic conditions; its cells attached to the Caco-2 cells so that its successful association with gut epithelial cells may be expected. These in vitro results confirmed several probiotic traits of the isolate Mz5T and justified further in vivo experiments to test its ability to improve animal health and performance.
