Abstract
Lignocellulose is a plentiful and intricate biomass substance made up of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Cellulose and hemicellulose are polysaccharides characterized by different compositions and degrees of polymerization. As renewable resources, their applications are eco-friendly and can help reduce reliance on petrochemical resources. This review aims to illustrate cellulose, hemicellulose, and their structures and hydrolytic enzymes. To obtain desirable enzyme sources for the high hydrolysis of lignocellulose, highly stable, efficient and thermophilic enzyme sources, and new technologies, such as rational design and machine learning, have been introduced in detail. Generally, the efficient biodegradation of abundant natural biomass into fermentable sugars or other intermediates has great potential in practical applications.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic wastes can be potentially converted into several bioproducts such as glucose, xylo-oligosaccharides, and bioethanol. Certain processes, such as enzymatic hydrolysis, are generally needed to convert biomass into bioproducts. The present study investigated the production of xylanases and cellulases by Streptomyces thermocerradoensis I3 under solid-state fermentation (SSF), using wheat bran as a low-cost medium. The activities of xylanase and carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase) were evaluated until 96 hr of incubation. The highest enzyme activity was observed after 72 hr of incubation. The crude enzyme extract was sequentially filtered, first using a 50 kDa filter, followed by a 30 kDa filter. Fraction 3 (F3) exhibited activities of both xylanase and CMCase. Xylanase and CMCase showed optimum activity at 70°C and pH 6.0 and 55°C and pH 6.0, respectively. The zymogram analysis showed a single activity band with a molecular mass of approximately 17 kDa. These findings provide strong evidence that the enzyme is a bifunctional xylanase/endoglucanase. This enzyme improved the saccharification of sugarcane bagasse by 1.76 times that of commercial cellulase. This enzyme has potential applications in various biotechnological procedures.

Abstract
Xylanases (EC 3.2.1.8) are hydrolytic enzymes, which randomly cleave the β-1,4-linked xylose residues from xylan. The synthetic gene xynBS27 from Streptomyces sp. S27 was successfully cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris. The full-length gene consists of 729 bp and encodes 243 amino acids including 51 residues of a putative signal peptide. This enzyme was purified in two steps and was shown to have a molecular weight of 20 kDa. The purified r-XynBS27 was active against beechwood xylan and oat spelt xylan as expected for GH 11 family. The optimum pH and temperature values for the enzyme were 6.0 and 75 °C, respectively. The Km and Vmax were 12.38 mg/mL and 13.68 μmol min/mg, respectively. The r-XynBS27 showed high xylose tolerance and was inhibited by some metal ions and by SDS. r-XynBS27 was employed as an additive in the bread making process. A decrease in firmness, stiffness and consistency, and improvements in specific volume and reducing sugar content were recorded.

Abstract
Efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose to fermentable sugars requires a complete repertoire of biomass deconstruction enzymes. Hemicellulases play an important role in hydrolyzing hemicellulose component of lignocellulose to xylooligosaccharides and xylose. Thermostable xylanases have been a focus of attention as industrially important enzymes due to their long shelf life at high temperatures. Geobacillus sp. strain WSUCF1 produced thermostable xylanase activity (crude xylanase cocktail) when grown on xylan or various inexpensive untreated and pretreated lignocellulosic biomasses such as prairie cord grass and corn stover. The optimum pH and temperature for the crude xylanase cocktail were 6.5 and 70°C, respectively. The WSUCF1 crude xylanase was found to be highly thermostable with half-lives of 18 and 12 days at 60 and 70°C, respectively. At 70°C, rates of xylan hydrolysis were also found to be better with the WSUCF1 secretome than those with commercial enzymes, i.e., for WSUCF1 crude xylanase, Cellic-HTec2, and AccelleraseXY, the percent xylan conversions were 68.9, 49.4, and 28.92, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, WSUCF1 crude xylanase cocktail is among the most thermostable xylanases produced by thermophilic Geobacillus spp. and other thermophilic microbes (optimum growth temperature ≤70°C). High thermostability, activity over wide range of temperatures, and better xylan hydrolysis than commercial enzymes make WSUCF1 crude xylanase suitable for thermophilic lignocellulose bioconversion processes.

Abstract
As part of an ongoing directed evolution program, the catalytic performance of the Xylanase A from Bacillus subtilis (XynA), which presents temperature and pH optima of 50°C and 6.0, respectively, has been enhanced to create a highly thermostable and alkali-tolerant enzyme. A library of random XynA mutants generated by error-prone polymerase chain reaction was screened by halo formation on agar containing xylan at pH 8.0. Two mutants showing higher catalytic activity at elevated pH in relation to the wild-type XynA were selected, and pooled with a further 5 XynA variants selected by screening thermostable XynA obtained from a previous directed evolution study for activity at alkaline pH. This pool of variants was used as a template for a further round of error-prone polymerase chain reaction and DNase fragment shuffling, with screening at pH 12.0 at 55°C. Selected mutants were subjected to further DNase shuffling, and a final round of screening at pH 12.0 and 80°C. A XynA variant containing eight mutations was isolated (Q7H/G13R/S22P/S31Y/T44A/I51V/I107L/S179C) that presented a temperature optimum of 80°C, a 3-fold increase in the specific activity compared with the wild-type enzyme at pH 8.0, and a 50% loss of activity (t50) of 60 min at 80°C (wild type <2 min). This directed evolution strategy therefore allows the concomitant adaption of increased thermostability and alkali tolerance of an endo-xylanase.

Abstract
In this work, the xylanolytic profile of Leucoagaricus gongylophorus was studied, and two extracellular enzymes with xylanolytic activity (XyLg1 and XyLg2) were isolated, purified, and characterized. XyLg1 has a molecular mass of about 38 kDa and pI greater than 4.8. For beechwood xylan substrate, XyLg1 showed an optimum temperature of 40 °C, optimum pH between 8.5 and 10.5, and Km = 14.7 ± 7.6 mg mL(-1). Kinetic studies of the XyLg1 using polygalacturonic acid as substrate were developed, and the enzyme showed optimum pH 5.5, optimum temperature between 50 and 60 °C, and Km = 2.2 ± 0.5 mg mL(-1). XyLg2 has molecular weight of about 24 kDa and pI less than 4.8, and thus is an acid protein. Parameters such as optimum temperature (70 °C) and pH (4.0), as well as the kinetic parameters (Km = 7.4 ± 2.0 mg mL(-1)) using beechwood xylan as substrate, were determined for XyLg2. This enzyme has no activity for polygalacturonic acid as substrate. XyLg1 and XyLg2 are the first native xylanases isolated and characterized from L. gongylophorus fungi and, due to their biochemistry and kinetic features, they have potential to be used in biotechnological processes.
