Abstract
Biotechnology offers innovative alternatives for industrial bioprocesses mainly because it uses enzymes that biodegrade the hemicellulose releasing fermentable sugars. Caulobacter crescentus (C. crescentus) has seven genes responsible for xylanolytic cleavage, 5 to β-xylosidases (EC 3.2.1.37) and 2 for endoxylanases, like xynA2 (CCNA_03137) that encodes Xylanase II (EC 3.2.1.8) of the glycohydrolases-GH10 group. The xynA2 gene was amplified by PCR, cloned into the pTrcHisA vector e efficiently overexpressed in E. coli providing a His-tag fusion protein. Recombinant xylanase (XynA2) was purified by affinity chromatography using a nickel sepharose column and exhibited a single 43 kDa band on SDS-PAGE gel. XynA2 showed an optimum alkaline pH (8) and stability at alkaline pH for 24 h. Although C. crescentus is mesophilic, XynA2 has optimum temperature of 60 °C and is thermo-resistance at 65 °C. XynA maintains 66% of the enzymatic activity at high temperatures (90 °C) without being denatured.The enzyme displayed a xylanolitic activity free of cellulase to xylan from beechwood and it was not inhibited in the presence of 50 μmol mL-1 of xylose. In addition, dithiothreitol (DTT) induced XynA2 activity, as it improved its kinetic parameters by lowering the KM (5.78 μmol mL-1) and increasing the KCat/KM ratio (1.63 U s-1). Finally, C. crescentus XynA2 efficiently hydrolyzed corn straw with high release of reducing sugars that can be applied in different branches of the industry.

Abstract
Microbial enzymes are high in demand and there is focus on their efficient, cost effective and eco-friendly production. The relevant microbial enzymes for respective industries needs to be identified but the conventional technologies don't have much edge over it. So, there is more attention towards high throughput methods for production of efficient enzymes. The enzymes produced by microbes need to be modified to bear the extreme conditions of the industries in order to get prolific outcomes and here the synthetic biology tools may be augmented to modify such microbes and enzymes. These tools are applied to synthesize novel and efficient enzymes. Use of computational tools for enzyme modification has provided new avenues for faster and specific modification of enzymes in a shorter time period. This review focuses on few important enzymes and their modification through synthetic biology tools including genetic modification, nanotechnology, post translational modification.
