Abstract
GH30 xylobiohydrolases, an expanding enzyme category, need deeper insights for optimal use. The primary aim of this study was to characterize a new xylobiohydrolase, AcGH30A of GH30 family from Acetivibrio clariflavus. The gene encoding AcGH30A was cloned using pET28a(+) vector and expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) cells. AcGH30A was purified by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography. SDS-PAGE analysis of AcGH30A showed molecular mass of ~58 kDa. AcGH30A showed optimum temperature 80 °C and optimum pH 7.0. AcGH30A was stable (maintaining >80 % of control activity) in pH range, 4-7 and temperature range, 30 °C -70 °C when incubated for 90 min. AcGH30A displayed melting temperature, 72 °C and half-life, 21 days at 4 °C. The enzyme activity of AcGH30A was enhanced by 10 mM Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions by 25 % and 21 %, respectively, whereas 10 mM Co2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, and Cu2+ ions significantly reduced it. AcGH30A showed activity against various xylan polysaccharides displaying highest Vmax, 139 U.mg-1 and KM, 0.71 mg.ml-1 against 4-O-methyl glucuronoxylan under optimum conditions. TLC, HPLC and LC-MS analyses of AcGH30A hydrolyzed products from xylan substrates revealed the release of sole product, xylobiose, confirming it as an obligate xylobiohydrolase. AcGH30A being a highly thermostable enzyme can be potentially utlilized in various biotechnological applications.

Carbohydr Polym 2024; 337:122141.

Abstract
Production of value-added compounds and sustainable materials from agro-industrial residues is essential for better waste management and building of circular economy. This includes valorization of hemicellulosic fraction of plant biomass, the second most abundant biopolymer from plant cell walls, aiming to produce prebiotic oligosaccharides, widely explored in food and feed industries. In this work, we conducted biochemical and biophysical characterization of a prokaryotic two-domain R. champanellensis xylanase from glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 30 (RcXyn30A), and evaluated its applicability for XOS production from glucuronoxylan in combination with two endo-xylanases from GH10 and GH11 families and a GH11 xylobiohydrolase. RcXyn30A liberates mainly long monoglucuronylated xylooligosaccharides and is inefficient in cleaving unbranched oligosaccharides. Crystallographic structure of RcXyn30A catalytic domain was solved and refined to 1.37 Å resolution. Structural analysis of the catalytic domain releveled that its high affinity for glucuronic acid substituted xylan is due to the coordination of the substrate decoration by several hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions in the subsite -2. Furthermore, the protein has a larger β5-α5 loop as compared to other GH30 xylanases, which might be crucial for creating an additional aglycone subsite (+3) of the catalytic site. Finally, RcXyn30A activity is synergic to that of GH11 xylobiohydrolase.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 394:130249.

Abstract
Effective production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) with lower proportion of xylose entails unique and robust xylanases. In this study, two novel xylanases from Trichoderma asperellum ND-1 belonging to glycoside hydrolase families 10 (XynTR10) and 11 (XynTR11) were over-expressed in Komagataella phaffii X-33 and characterized to be robust enzymes with high halotolerance and ethanol tolerant. Both enzymes displayed strict substrate specificity towards beechwood xylan and wheat arabinoxylan. (Glu153/Glu258) and (Glu161/Glu252) were key catalytic sites for XynTR10 and XynTR11. Notably, XynTR11 could rapidly degrade xylan/XOS into xylobiose without xylose via transglycosylation. Direct degradation of corncob using XynTR10 and XynTR111 displayed that while XynTR10 yielded 77% xylobiose and 25% xylose, XynTR11 yielded much less xylose (11%) and comparable amounts of xylobiose (63%). XynTR10 or XynTR111 has great potential as a catalyst for bioconversion of xylan-containing agricultural waste into high-value products (biofuel or XOS), which is of significant benefit for the economy and environment.

Abstract
Poor management of agricultural waste will cause a lot of environment pollution and the composting process is one of the most effective measures for resource reuse of agricultural waste. β-Glucosidase-producing microbial communities play a vital role in cellulose degradation during composting and regulate cellulase production via differentially expressed glucose/non-glucose tolerant β-glucosidase genes. Biochar is widely used as an amendment in compost to accelerate cellulose degradation during composting. However, Biochar-mediated impacts on β-glucosidase-producing microbial communities in compost are unclear. Here, different carbon metabolism pressures were set in natural and biochar compost to elucidate the regulation mechanism and interaction of the β-glucosidase microbial community. Results showed that the addition of biochar decreased the transcription of β-glucosidase genes and led to a reduction of β-glucosidase activity. Micromonospora and Cellulosimicrobium were the predominant functional communities determining cellulose degradation during biochar compost. Biochar addition strengthened the response of the functional microbial community to carbon metabolism pressure. And adding biochar altered the key β-glucosidase-producing microbial communities, influencing cellulase and the interaction between these communities to respond to the different carbon metabolic pressure of compost. Biochar also shifted the co-occurrence network of β-glucosidase-producing microbial community by changing the keystone species. Furthermore, co-occurrence network analysis revealed that high glucose decreased the complexity and stability of the functional microbial network. Most functional microorganisms from Streptomyces produce non-glucose tolerant β-glucosidase, which were the key bacterial communities affecting β-glucosidase activity in the non-glucose treatment. This study provides new insights into the response of functional microbial communities and the regulation of enzyme production during the transformation of cellulosic biomass.

Abstract
Brewer spent grains (BSGs) are one of the most abundant by-products in brewing industry. Due to microbiological instability and high perishability, the efficient degradation of BSGs is of environmental and economic importance. Streptomyces sp. F-3 could grow in the medium with BSGs as the only carbon and nitrogen source. Proteome mass spectrometry revealed that a GH10 xylanase SsXyn10A could be secreted in large quantities. SsXyn10A showed optimum activity at pH 7.0 and 60 °C. SsXyn10A exhibited excellent thermostability which retained approximately 100% and 58% after incubation for 5 h at 50 and 60 °C. SsXyn10A displayed high activity to beechwood xylan (BX) and wheat arabinoxylan (WAX). SsXyn10A is active against xylotetracose (X4), xylopentose (X5), and xylohexose (X6) to produce main products xylobiose (X2) and xylotriose (X3). Ssxyn10A showed synergistic effects with commercial cellulase on BSGs hydrolyzing into soluble sugar. In addition, the steam explosion pretreatment of BSGs as the substrate produced twice as much reducing sugar as the degradation of the original substrate. This study will contribute to efficient utilization of BSGs and provide a thermostable GH10 xylanase which has potential application in biomass hydrolysis.

Computational design and structure dynamics analysis of bifunctional chimera of endoxylanase from Clostridium thermocellum and xylosidase from Bacteroides ovatus. 3 Biotech 2023; 13:59.

Abstract
Development of chimeric enzymes by protein engineering can more efficiently contribute toward biomass conversion for bioenergy generation. Therefore, prior to experimental validation, a computational approach by modeling and molecular dynamic simulation can assess the structural and functional behavior of chimeric enzymes. In this study, a bifunctional chimera, CtXyn11A-BoGH43A comprising an efficient endoxylanase (CtXyn11A) from Clostridium thermocellum and xylosidase (BoGH43A) from Bacteroides ovatus was computationally designed and its binding and stability analysis with xylooligosaccharides were performed. The modeled chimera showed β-jellyroll fold for CtXyn11A and 5-bladed β-propeller fold for BoGH43A module. Stereo-chemical properties analyzed by Ramachandran plot showed 98.8% residues in allowed region, validating the modeled chimera. The catalytic residues identified by multiple sequence alignment were Glu94 and Glu184 for CtXyn11A and Asp229 and Glu384 for BoGH43A modules. CtXyn11A followed retaining-type, whereas BoGH43A enforced inverting-type of reaction mechanism during xylan hydrolysis as revealed by superposition and GH11 and GH43 familial analyses. Molecular docking studies showed binding energy, (ΔG) - 4.54 and - 4.18 kcal/mol for CtXyn11A and BoGH43A modules of chimera, respectively, with xylobiose, while - 3.94 and - 3.82 kcal/mol for CtXyn11A and BoGH43A modules of chimera, respectively, with xylotriose. MD simulation of CtXyn11A-BoGH43A complexed with xylobiose and xylotriose till 100 ns displayed stability by RMSD, compactness by R g and conformational stability by SASA analyses. The lowered values of RMSF in active-site residues, Glu94, Glu184, Asp229, Asp335 and Glu384 confirmed the efficient binding of chimera with xylobiose and xylotriose. These results were in agreement with the earlier experimental studies on CtXyn11A releasing xylooligosaccharides from xylan and BoGH43A releasing d-xylose from xylooligosaccharides and xylobiose. The chimera showed stronger affinity in terms of total short-range interaction energy; - 190 and - 121 kJ/mol for with xylobiose and xylotriose, respectively. The bifunctional chimera, CtXyn11A-BoGH43A showed stability and integrity with xylobiose and xylotriose. The designed chimera can be constructed and applied for efficient biomass conversion.

Abstract
A xylanase-producing strain, identified as Streptomyces sp. T7, was isolated from soil by our lab. The endo-β-1,4-xylanase (xynST7) gene was found in the genome sequence of strain T7, which was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. XynST7 belonged to the glycoside hydrolase family 10, with a molecular mass of approximately 47 kDa. The optimum pH and temperature of XynST7 were pH 6.0 and 60 °C, respectively, and it showed wide pH and temperature adaptability and stability, retaining more than half of its enzyme activity between pH 5.0 and 11.0 below 80 °C. XynST7 showed only endo-β-1,4-xylanase activity without cellulase- or β-xylosidase activity, and it showed maximal hydrolysis for corncob xylan in all the test substrates. Then, XynST7 was used for the production of xylo-oligosaccharides (XOSs) by hydrolyzing xylan extracted from raw corncobs. The maximum yield of the XOS was 8.61 ± 0.13 mg/mL using 15 U/mL of XynST7 and 1.5% corncob xylan after 10 h of incubation at 60 °C. The resulting hydrolysate products mainly consisted of xylobiose and xylotriose. These data indicated that XynST7 might by a promising tool for various industrial applications.

Abstract
In this study, the feasibility of three methods on enhancing the recovery performance of biofilter after the interference and starvation periods was evaluated. Results show that despite the pressure drop risk, supplementation of 7.5% (w/v) Polyethylene glycol-600 (PEG-600) resulted in quick recovery on removal efficiency in both short- and long-term interference shutdown experiments. Tinidazole Tablets (2 mg/L), a Bacteroidetes-specific antibiotic, are more suitable to apply as a one-time shot to improve recovery of biofilter as the second dose of Tinidazole Tablets was no longer effective presumably caused by the increased drug resistance. It is worth noting that the maximum elimination capacity of 134 g/(m3·h) was observed with Pseudomonas putida (P. putida) BRJC1032 addition. The biodegradation kinetic, biological characteristics and microbial community evolution in biofilters were systematically analyzed for finding the suitable methods to enhance recovery performance, which is of great value for the further industrial application of the biofilter technology.

Abstract
Bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass into value-added products relies on polysaccharides depolymerization by carbohydrate active enzymes. This work reports biochemical characterization of Paludibacter propionicigenes xylanase from GH10 (PpXyn10A) and its application for enzymatic xylooligosaccharides (XOS) production from commercial heteroxylans and liquor of hydrothermally pretreated corn cobs (PCC). PpXyn10A is tolerant to ethanol and NaCl, and releases xylobiose (X2) and xylotriose (X3) as the main hydrolytic products. The conversion rate of complex substrates into short XOS was approximately 30% for glucuronoxylan and 8.8% for rye arabinoxylan, after only 4 h; while for PCC, PpXyn10A greatly increased unbranched XOS yields. B. adolescentis fermentation with XOS from beechwood glucuronoxylan produced mainly acetic and lactic acids. Structural analysis shows that while the glycone region of PpXyn10A active site is well preserved, the aglycone region has aromatic interactions in the +2 subsite that may explain why PpXyn10A does not release xylose.

Abstract
The majority of lignocellulosic biomass on the planet originates from plant cell walls, which are complex structures build up mainly by cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The largest part of hemicellulose, xylan, is a polymer with a β-(1→4)-linked xylose residues backbone decorated with α-D-glucopyranosyl uronic acids and/or L-arabinofuranose residues. Xylan is the second most abundant biopolymer in nature, which can be sustainably and efficiently degraded into decorated and undecorated xylooligosaccharides (XOS) using combinations of thermochemical pretreatments and enzymatic hydrolyses, that have broad applications in the food, feed, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Endo-xylanases from different complex carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) families can be used to cleave the backbone of arabino(glucurono)xylans and xylooligosaccharides and degrade them into short XOS. It has been shown that XOS with a low degree of polymerization have enhanced prebiotic effects conferring health benefits to humans and animals. In this review we describe recent advances in the enzymatic production of XOS from lignocellulosic biomass arabino- and glucuronoxylans and their applications as food and feed additives and health-promoting ingredients. Comparative advantages of xylanases from different CAZy families in XOS production are discussed and potential health benefits of different XOS are presented.

Abstract
To mitigate the current global energy and the environmental crisis, biofuels such as bioethanol have progressively gained attention from both scientific and industrial perspectives. However, at present, commercialized bioethanol is mainly derived from edible crops, thus raising serious concerns given its competition with feed production. For this reason, lignocellulosic biomasses (LCBs) have been recognized as important alternatives for bioethanol production. Because LCBs supply is sustainable, abundant, widespread, and cheap, LCBs-derived bioethanol currently represents one of the most viable solutions to meet the global demand for liquid fuel. However, the cost-effective conversion of LCBs into ethanol remains a challenge and its implementation has been hampered by several bottlenecks that must still be tackled. Among other factors related to the challenging and variable nature of LCBs, we highlight: (i) energy-demanding pretreatments, (ii) expensive hydrolytic enzyme blends, and (iii) the need for microorganisms that can ferment mixed sugars. In this regard, thermophiles represent valuable tools to overcome some of these limitations. Thus, the aim of this review is to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art technologies involved, such as the use of thermophilic enzymes and microorganisms in industrial-relevant conditions, and to propose possible means to implement thermophiles into second-generation ethanol biorefineries that are already in operation.

Endo-xylanases from Cohnella sp. AR92 aimed at xylan and arabinoxylan conversion into value-added products. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2021; 105:6759-6778. [PMID: 34458936 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-021-11495-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
The genus Cohnella belongs to a group of Gram-positive endospore-forming bacteria within the Paenibacillaceae family. Although most species were described as xylanolytic bacteria, the literature still lacks some key information regarding their repertoire of xylan-degrading enzymes. The whole genome sequence of an isolated xylan-degrading bacterium Cohnella sp. strain AR92 was found to contain five genes encoding putative endo-1,4-β-xylanases, of which four were cloned, expressed, and characterized to better understand the contribution of the individual endo-xylanases to the overall xylanolytic properties of strain AR92. Three of the enzymes, CoXyn10A, CoXyn10C, and CoXyn11A, were shown to be effective at hydrolyzing xylans-derived from agro-industrial, producing oligosaccharides with substrate conversion values of 32.5%, 24.7%, and 10.6%, respectively, using sugarcane bagasse glucuronoarabinoxylan and of 29.9%, 19.1%, and 8.0%, respectively, using wheat bran-derived arabinoxylan. The main reaction products from GH10 enzymes were xylobiose and xylotriose, whereas CoXyn11A produced mostly xylooligosaccharides (XOS) with 2 to 5 units of xylose, often substituted, resulting in potentially prebiotic arabinoxylooligosaccharides (AXOS). The endo-xylanases assay displayed operational features (temperature optima from 49.9 to 50.4 °C and pH optima from 6.01 to 6.31) fitting simultaneous xylan utilization. Homology modeling confirmed the typical folds of the GH10 and GH11 enzymes, substrate docking studies allowed the prediction of subsites (- 2 to + 1 in GH10 and - 3 to + 1 in GH11) and identification of residues involved in ligand interactions, supporting the experimental data. Overall, the Cohnella sp. AR92 endo-xylanases presented significant potential for enzymatic conversion of agro-industrial by-products into high-value products.Key points• Cohnella sp. AR92 genome encoded five potential endo-xylanases.• Cohnella sp. AR92 enzymes produced xylooligosaccharides from xylan, with high yields.• GH10 enzymes from Cohnella sp. AR92 are responsible for the production of X2 and X3 oligosaccharides.• GH11 from Cohnella sp. AR92 contributes to the overall xylan degradation by producing substituted oligosaccharides.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2021; 8:637397. [PMID: 33598452 PMCID: PMC7882696 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2020.637397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
As is well-known, endo-1,4-β-xylanase and β-xylosidase are the rate-limiting enzymes in the degradation of xylan (the major hemicellulosic component), main functions of which are cleavaging xylan to release xylooligosaccharides (XOS) and xylose that these two compounds have important application value in fuel, food, and other industries. This study focuses on enzymatic hydrolysis of poplar sawdust xylan for production of XOS and xylose by a GH11 endo-1,4-β-xylanase MxynB-8 and a GH39 β-xylosidase Xln-DT. MxynB-8 showed excellent ability to hydrolyze hemicellulose of broadleaf plants, such as poplar. Under optimized conditions (50°C, pH 6.0, dosage of 500 U/g, substrate concentration of 2 mg/mL), the final XOS yield was 85.5%, and the content of XOS2-3 reached 93.9% after 18 h. The enzymatic efficiency by MxynB-8 based on the poplar sawdust xylan in the raw material was 30.5%. Xln-DT showed excellent xylose/glucose/arabinose tolerance, which is applied as a candidate to apply in degradation of hemicellulose. In addition, the process and enzymatic mode of poplar sawdust xylan with MxynB-8 and Xln-DT were investigated. The results showed that the enzymatic hydrolysis yield of poplar sawdust xylan was improved by adding Xln-DT, and a xylose-rich hydrolysate could be obtained at high purity, with the xylose yield of 89.9%. The enzymatic hydrolysis yield was higher (32.2%) by using MxynB-8 and Xln-DT together. This study provides a deep understanding of double-enzyme synergetic enzymolysis of wood polysaccharides to valuable products.

Production of prebiotic xylooligosaccharides from arabino- and glucuronoxylan using a two-domain Jonesia denitrificans xylanase from GH10 family. Enzyme Microb Technol 2021; 144:109743. [PMID: 33541577 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2021.109743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2020] [Revised: 01/01/2021] [Accepted: 01/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Development of a more environmentally sustainable society is based on the maximum use of renewable carbon sources and their valorization of environmentally-friendly green technologies. This includes a thorough use of plant biomass and agricultural residues for the production of value-added bioproducts. Xylan is the second most abundant biopolymer in nature which can be sustainable converted into pentoses and xylooligosaccharides, that have wide applications in the food, feed, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industry. Within the scope of present study, we biochemically characterized two-domain GH10 xylanase from Jonesia denitrificans (JdXyn10A) and evaluated its applicability for production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS). JdXyn10A has a specific activity of 84 ± 2 U/mg and 65 ± 5 U/mg when acting on beechwood glucuronoxylan and rye arabinoxylan, respectively. The enzyme is stable in a wide pH range and is tolerant to high concentrations of NaCl and ethanol. Interestingly, the profile of products released by the enzyme is predominant in xylobiose and xylotriose, with a very low fraction of xylose which is desirable for XOS production. The efficiencies of enzymatic conversion of beechwood glucuronoxylan and rye arabinoxylan are 47.67 % and 26.01 %, respectively, after 6 h of enzymatic hydrolysis only. Structural comparison between the JdXyn10A homology model and the structure from its homologous that while the glycone region of its active site is well preserved, the aglycone region presents structural differences in the +2 subsite that may explain why JdXyn10A does not release xylose.

High-level expression and enzymatic properties of a novel thermostable xylanase with high arabinoxylan degradation ability from Chaetomium sp. suitable for beer mashing. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 168:223-232. [PMID: 33309660 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.12.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2020] [Revised: 12/04/2020] [Accepted: 12/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
A novel thermostable xylanase gene from Chaetomium sp. CQ31 was cloned and codon-optimized (CsXynBop). The deduced protein sequence of the gene shared the highest similarity of 75% with the glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 10 xylanase from Achaetomium sp. Xz-8. CsXynBop was over-expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115 by high-cell density fermentation, with the highest xylanase yield of 10,017 U/mL. The recombinant xylanase (CsXynBop) was purified to homogeneity and biochemically characterized. CsXynBop was optimally active at pH 6.5 and 85 °C, respectively, and stable over a broad pH range of 5.0-9.5 and up to 60 °C. The enzyme exhibited strict substrate specificity towards oat-spelt xylan (2, 489 U/mg), beechwood xylan (1522 U/mg), birchwood xylan (1067 U/mg), and showed relatively high activity towards arabinoxylan (1208 U/mg), but exhibited no activity on other tested polysaccharides. CsXynBop hydrolyzed different xylans to yield mainly xylooligosaccharides (XOSs) with degree of polymerization (DP) 2-5. The application of CsXynBop (200 U/g malt) in malt mashing substantially decreased the filtration time and viscosity of malt by 42.3% and 8.6%, respectively. These excellent characteristics of CsXynBop may make it a good candidate in beer industry.
