Abstract
Enzymatic degradation of hemi-cellulosic substrates has gained plenty of industrial attentions recently. Complete enzymatic degradation of complex and recalcitrant hemicellulose requires an enzymatic cocktail consisting primarily of endo-1,4-β-xylanase (xyl), β-xylosidase, arabinofuranosidase etc. This article reports, for the first time, the identification, cloning, expression and partial characterization of a potent endo-1,4- β-xylanase gene (pxyl) from the mushroom Termitomyces clypeatus (TC) in E. coli and S. cerevisiae. The cDNA for pxyl was found to be 678 bp that in turn gives rise to a precursor protein (Pxyl) of 225 amino acids long when cloned in prokaryotic expression vector. To characterize additionally, the cDNA was also expressed in S. cerevisiae. Bioinformatics study predicted that the Pxyl contains a 19 amino acid long leader peptide that enables post translational modifications including glycosylation as well as its efficient secretion in the medium. The recombinant protein has been found to be a member of GH11 family containing two distant glutamic acids as catalytic residues. This report describes yet another new and potent source of xylanase for commercial exploitation by industry in future.

Trehalose mediated stabilisation of cellobiase aggregates from the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum. Int J Biol Macromol 2019; 127:365-375.

Abstract
Extracellular fungal cellobiases develop large stable aggregates by reversible concentration driven interaction. In-vitro addition of trehalose resulted in bigger cellobiase assemblies with increased stability against heat and dilution induced dissociation. In presence of 0.1 M trehalose, the size of aggregates increased from 344 nm to 494 nm. The increase in size was also observed in zymography of cellobiase. Activation energy of the trehalose stabilised enzyme (Ea = 220.9 kJ/mol) as compared to control (Ea = 257.734 kJ/mol), suggested enhanced thermostability and also showed increased resistance to chaotropes. Purified cellobiase was found to contain 196.27 μg of sugar/μg of protein. It was proposed that presence of glycan on protein's surface impedes and delays trehalose docking. Consequently, self-association of cellobiase preceded coating by trehalose leading to stabilisation of bigger cellobiase aggregates. In unison with the hypothesis, ribosylated BSA failed to get compacted by trehalose and developed into bigger aggregates with average size increasing from 210 nm to 328 nm. Wheat Germ Lectin, in presence of trehalose, showed higher molecular weight assemblies in DLS, native-PAGE and fluorescence anisotropy. This is the first report of cross-linking independent stabilisation of purified fungal glycosidases providing important insights towards understanding the aggregation and stability of glycated proteins.

Abstract
Regulatory mode of secretion of proteins was detected for the industrial glycosidase, cellobiase, under secreting conditions (in presence of TCA cycle intermediates like succinate etc.) in the filamentous fungus Termitomyces clypeatus. The titers of key metabolic enzymes were investigated under secreting and non-secreting conditions of growth and compared to the corresponding production of intra and extracellular levels of cellobiase. Results were compared in presence of 2-deoxy-D-glucose, a potent glycosylation inhibitor in the secreting media. Inclusion of 2-deoxy-D-glucose in presence of succinate caused about 10 to 100 times decrease in titers of the metabolic enzymes hexokinase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, isocitrate lyase and malate dehydrogenase leading to increased secretion of cellobiase by more than 100 times. The intracellular concentration of cAMP (86-fold decrease in presence of 2-deoxy-D-glucose under secreting conditions) and turnover rate of proteins also dropped significantly. In this suppressed metabolic state, a 10-fold increase in the titer of the secreted cellobiase was noticed. The results indicated elucidation of carbon catabolite repression like phenomenon in the fungus under secreting conditions which was more pronounced by 2-deoxy-D-glucose. The interdependence between secretion and regulation of metabolic enzymes will help in better understanding of the physiology of these highly adapted organisms for increasing their secretion potential of glycosidases like cellobiase with high industrial value.

Abstract
This paper describes the process for the reconstruction of a high quality human metabolic network from the genome information, the existing problems in the reconstruction and why a time-consuming literature based consolidation process is needed. The reconstructed metabolic network provides a unified platform to integrate all the biological and medical information on genes, proteins, metabolites, disease, drugs and drug targets for a system level study of the relationship between metabolism and disease. System analysis of metabolic networks will help us, not only in identifying new drug targets but also in developing a system-oriented drug design strategy.
