Abstract
The plant cell wall polysaccharide arabinan provides an important supply of arabinose, and unraveling arabinan-degrading strategies by microbes is important for understanding its use as a source of energy. Here, we explored the arabinan-degrading enzymes in the thermophilic bacterium Caldanaerobius polysaccharolyticus and identified a gene cluster encoding two glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 51 α-l-arabinofuranosidases (CpAbf51A, CpAbf51B), a GH43 endoarabinanase (CpAbn43A), a GH27 β-l-arabinopyranosidase (CpAbp27A), and two GH127 β-l-arabinofuranosidases (CpAbf127A, CpAbf127B). The genes were expressed as recombinant proteins, and the functions of the purified proteins were determined with para-nitrophenyl (pNP)-linked sugars and naturally occurring pectin structural elements as the substrates. The results demonstrated that CpAbn43A is an endoarabinanase while CpAbf51A and CpAbf51B are α-l-arabinofuranosidases that exhibit diverse substrate specificities, cleaving α-1,2, α-1,3, and α-1,5 linkages of purified arabinan-oligosaccharides. Furthermore, both CpAbf127A and CpAbf127B cleaved β-arabinofuranose residues in complex arabinan side chains, thus providing evidence of the function of this family of enzymes on such polysaccharides. The optimal temperatures of the enzymes ranged between 60°C and 75°C, and CpAbf43A and CpAbf51A worked synergistically to release arabinose from branched and debranched arabinan. Furthermore, the hydrolytic activity on branched arabinan oligosaccharides and degradation of pectic substrates by the endoarabinanase and l-arabinofuranosidases suggested a microbe equipped with diverse activities to degrade complex arabinan in the environment. Based on our functional analyses of the genes in the arabinan degradation cluster and the substrate-binding studies on a component of the cognate transporter system, we propose a model for arabinan degradation and transport by C. polysaccharolyticusIMPORTANCE Genomic DNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis allowed the identification of a gene cluster encoding several proteins predicted to function in arabinan degradation and transport in C. polysaccharolyticus The analysis of the recombinant proteins yielded detailed insights into the putative arabinan metabolism of this thermophilic bacterium. The use of various branched arabinan oligosaccharides provided a detailed understanding of the substrate specificities of the enzymes and allowed assignment of two new GH127 polypeptides as β-l-arabinofuranosidases able to degrade pectic substrates, thus expanding our knowledge of this rare group of glycoside hydrolases. In addition, the enzymes showed synergistic effects for the degradation of arabinans at elevated temperatures. The enzymes characterized from the gene cluster are, therefore, of utility for arabinose production in both the biofuel and food industries.

Elucidation of the molecular basis for arabinoxylan-debranching activity of a thermostable family GH62 α-l-arabinofuranosidase from Streptomyces thermoviolaceus.

Abstract
Xylan-debranching enzymes facilitate the complete hydrolysis of xylan and can be used to alter xylan chemistry. Here, the family GH62 α-l-arabinofuranosidase from Streptomyces thermoviolaceus (SthAbf62A) was shown to have a half-life of 60 min at 60°C and the ability to cleave α-1,3 l-arabinofuranose (l-Araf) from singly substituted xylopyranosyl (Xylp) backbone residues in wheat arabinoxylan; low levels of activity on arabinan as well as 4-nitrophenyl α-l-arabinofuranoside were also detected. After selective removal of α-1,3 l-Araf substituents from disubstituted Xylp residues present in wheat arabinoxylan, SthAbf62A could also cleave the remaining α-1,2 l-Araf substituents, confirming the ability of SthAbf62A to remove α-l-Araf residues that are (1→2) and (1→3) linked to monosubstituted β-d-Xylp sugars. Three-dimensional structures of SthAbf62A and its complex with xylotetraose and l-arabinose confirmed a five-bladed β-propeller fold and revealed a molecular Velcro in blade V between the β1 and β21 strands, a disulfide bond between Cys27 and Cys297, and a calcium ion coordinated in the central channel of the fold. The enzyme-arabinose complex structure further revealed a narrow and seemingly rigid l-arabinose binding pocket situated at the center of one side of the β propeller, which stabilized the arabinofuranosyl substituent through several hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions. The predicted catalytic amino acids were oriented toward this binding pocket, and the catalytic essentiality of Asp53 and Glu213 was confirmed by site-specific mutagenesis. Complex structures with xylotetraose revealed a shallow cleft for xylan backbone binding that is open at both ends and comprises multiple binding subsites above and flanking the l-arabinose binding pocket.

Abstract
Members of glycoside hydrolase family 1 (GH1) cleave glycosidic linkages with a variety of physiological roles. Here we report a unique GH1 member encoded in the genome of Bifidobacterium adolescentis ATCC 15703. This enzyme, BAD0156, was identified from over 2,000 GH1 sequences accumulated in a database by a genome mining approach based on a motif sequence. A recombinant BAD0156 protein was characterized to confirm that this enzyme alone specifically hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl-α-L-arabinofuranoside among the 24 p-nitrophenyl-glycosides examined. Among natural glycosides, α-1,5-linked arabino-oligosaccharides served as substrates, but arabinan, debranched arabinan, arabinoxylan, and arabinogalactan did not. A time course analysis of arabino-oligosaccharide hydrolysis indicated that BAD0156 is an exo-acting enzyme. These results suggest that BAD0156 is an α-L-arabinofuranosidase. This is the first report of a GH1 enzyme that acts specifically on arabinosides, providing information on GH1 substrate specificity.

Abstract
Lignocellulose is the most abundant carbohydrate source in nature and represents an ideal renewable energy source. Thermostable enzymes that hydrolyze lignocellulose to its component sugars have significant advantages for improving the conversion rate of biomass over their mesophilic counterparts. We review here the recent literature on the development and use of thermostable enzymes for the depolymerization of lignocellulosic feedstocks for biofuel production. Furthermore, we discuss the protein structure, mechanisms of thermostability, and specific strategies that can be used to improve the thermal stability of lignocellulosic biocatalysts.

Abstract
This work is believed to be the first report on the physiological and biochemical characterization of α-l-rhamnosidases in lactic acid bacteria. A total of 216 strains representing 37 species and eight genera of food-grade bacteria were screened for α-l-rhamnosidase activity. The majority of positive bacteria (25 out of 35) were Lactobacillus plantarum strains, and activity of the L. plantarum strain NCC245 was examined in more detail. The analysis of α-l-rhamnosidase activity under different growth conditions revealed dual regulation of the enzyme activity, involving carbon catabolite repression and induction: the enzyme activity was downregulated by glucose and upregulated by l-rhamnose. The expression of the two α-l-rhamnosidase genes rhaB1 and rhaB2 and two predicted permease genes rhaP1 and rhaP2, identified in a probable operon rhaP2B2P1B1, was repressed by glucose and induced by l-rhamnose, showing regulation at the transcriptional level. The two α-l-rhamnosidase genes were overexpressed and purified from Escherichia coli. RhaB1 activity was maximal at 50 °C and at neutral pH and RhaB2 maximal activity was detected at 60 °C and at pH 5, with high residual activity at 70 °C. Both enzymes showed a preference for the α-1,6 linkage of l-rhamnose to β-d-glucose, hesperidin and rutin being their best substrates, but, surprisingly, no activity was detected towards the α-1,2 linkage in naringin under the tested conditions. In conclusion, we identified and characterized the strain L. plantarum NCC245 and its two α-l-rhamnosidase enzymes, which might be applied for improvement of bioavailability of health-beneficial polyphenols, such as hesperidin, in humans.

Abstract
alpha-l-Arabinofuranosidase was purified from culture filtrates of the thermoalkaliphilic Streptomyces sp. PC22 to about 108-fold purity by (NH(4))(2)SO(4) precipitation followed by column chromatography. Its approximate molecular weight was 404kDa, with a subunit mass of approximately 79kDa. The evaluated K(m) and V(max) values with p-nitrophenyl-alpha-l-arabinofuranoside as substrate were 0.23mM and 124 U.mg(-1), respectively. The purified enzyme was optimally active at 65 degrees C and pH 6.0 and showed a mild but significant synergistic effect in combination with other xylanolytic enzymes, including xylanase, beta-xylosidase and acetyl esterase, on the degradation of oat-spelt xylan, corn cob and corn husk substrates with a 1.25, 1.32 and 1.21-fold increase in the amount of reducing sugar released, respectively, compared to the expected (additive) amounts for the individual enzymes acting alone. Sequential reactions using two xylan-backbone degrading enzymes (xylanase/beta-xylosidase) and two debranching enzymes (alpha-l-arabinofuranosidase/acetyl esterase) were also determined. The highest degree of synergy was obtained in sequential reactions with the debranching enzyme digestion preceding the xylan-backbone degrading enzymes.

Abstract
An open reading frame encoding a putative bi-functional beta-D-xylosidase/alpha-L-arabinosidase (Sso3032) was identified on the genome sequence of Sulfolobus solfataricus P2, the predicted gene product showing high amino-acid sequence similarity to bacterial and eukaryal individual beta-D-xylosidases and alpha-L-arabinosidases as well as bi-functional enzymes such as the protein from Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus and barley. The sequence was PCR amplified from genomic DNA of S. solfataricus P2 and heterologous gene expression obtained in Escherichia coli, under optimal conditions for overproduction. Specific assays performed at 75 degrees C revealed the presence in the transformed E. coli cell extracts of this archaeal activity involved in sugar hydrolysis and specific for both substrates. The recombinant protein was purified by thermal precipitation of the host proteins and ethanol fractionation and other properties, such as high thermal activity and thermostability could be determined. The protein showed a homo-tetrameric structure with a subunit of molecular mass of 82.0 kDa which was in perfect agreement with that deduced from the cloned gene. Northern blot analysis of the xarS gene indicates that it is specifically induced by xylan and repressed by monosaccharides like D-glucose and L-arabinose.

Abstract
Recently, alpha-L-arabinofuranosidases (EC3.2.1.55) have received increased attention primarily due to their role in the degradation of lignocelluloses as well as their positive effect on the activity of other enzymes acting on lignocelluloses. As a result, these enzymes are used in many biotechnological applications including wine industry, clarification of fruit juices, digestion enhancement of animal feedstuffs and as a natural improver for bread. Moreover, these enzymes could be used to improve existing technologies and to develop new technologies. The production, mechanisms of action, classification, synergistic role, biochemical properties, substrate specificities, molecular biology and biotechnological applications of these enzymes have been reviewed in this article.
