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.

Pentari C, Kosinas C, Nikolaivits E, Dimarogona M, Topakas E. Structural and molecular insights into a bifunctional glycoside hydrolase 30 xylanase specific to glucuronoxylan. Biotechnol Bioeng 2024; 121:2067-2078. [PMID: 38678481 DOI: 10.1002/bit.28731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Glycoside hydrolase (GH) 30 family xylanases are enzymes of biotechnological interest due to their capacity to degrade recalcitrant hemicelluloses, such as glucuronoxylan (GX). This study focuses on a subfamily 7 GH30, TtXyn30A from Thermothelomyces thermophilus, which acts on GX in an "endo" and "exo" mode, releasing methyl-glucuronic acid branched xylooligosaccharides (XOs) and xylobiose, respectively. The crystal structure of inactive TtXyn30A in complex with 23-(4-O-methyl-α-D-glucuronosyl)-xylotriose (UXX), along with biochemical analyses, corroborate the implication of E233, previously identified as alternative catalytic residue, in the hydrolysis of decorated xylan. At the -1 subsite, the xylose adopts a distorted conformation, indicative of the Michaelis complex of TtXyn30AEE with UXX trapped in the semi-functional active site. The most significant structural rearrangements upon substrate binding are observed at residues W127 and E233. The structures with neutral XOs, representing the "exo" function, clearly show the nonspecific binding at aglycon subsites, contrary to glycon sites, where the xylose molecules are accommodated via multiple interactions. Last, an unproductive ligand binding site is found at the interface between the catalytic and the secondary β-domain which is present in all GH30 enzymes. These findings improve current understanding of the mechanism of bifunctional GH30s, with potential applications in the field of enzyme engineering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE New characterized carbohydrate-active enzymes are needed for use as tools to discriminate complex carbohydrate structural features. Fungal glycoside hydrolase family 3 (GH3) β-xylosidases have been shown to be useful for the structural elucidation of glucuronic acid (GlcA) and arabinofuranose (Araf) substituted oligoxylosides. A homolog of these GH3 fungal enzymes from the bacterium Segatella baroniae (basonym Prevotella bryantii), Xyl3C, has been previously characterized, but those studies did not address important functional specificity features. In an interest to utilize this enzyme for laboratory methods intended to discriminate the structure of the non-reducing terminus of substituted xylooligosaccharides, we have further characterized this GH3 xylosidase. RESULTS In addition to verification of basic functional characteristics of this xylosidase we have determined its mode of action as it relates to non-reducing end xylose release from GlcA and Araf substituted oligoxylosides. Xyl3C cleaves xylose from the non-reducing terminus of β-1,4-xylan until occurrence of a penultimate substituted xylose. If this substitution is O2 linked, then Xyl3C removes the non-reducing xylose to leave the substituted xylose as the new non-reducing terminus. However, if the substitution is O3 linked, Xyl3C does not hydrolyze, thus leaving the substitution one-xylose (penultimate) from the non-reducing terminus. Hence, Xyl3C enables discrimination between O2 and O3 linked substitutions on the xylose penultimate to the non-reducing end. These findings are contrasted using a homologous enzyme also from S. baroniae, Xyl3B, which is found to yield a penultimate substituted nonreducing terminus regardless of which GlcA or Araf substitution exists.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 270:132090.

Abstract
Calceorioside B, a multifunctional phenylethanol glycosides (PhGs) derivative, exhibits a variety of notable properties, such as antithrombotic, anti-tumorigenic, anti-neocoronavirus, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects. However, the large-scale production of calceorioside B is routinely restricted by its existence as an intermediary compound derived from plants, and still unachieved through excellent and activity chemical synthesis. Here, a total of 51 fungal endophytes were isolated from four PhGs-producing plants, and endophyte Simplicillium sinense EFF1 from Echinacea purpurea was identified with the ability to de-rhamnosing isoacteoside to generate calceorioside B. According to the RNA-transcription of EFF1 under the various substrates, a key gene CL1206.Contig2 that undertakes the hydrolysis function was screened out and charactered by heterologous expression. The sequence alignment, phylogenetic tree construction and substrate specificity analysis revealed that CL1206 was a novel α-L-rhamnosidase that belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase family 78 (GH78). The optimum catalytic conditions for CL1206 were at pH 6.5 and 55 °C. Finally, the enzyme-catalyzed approach to produce calceorioside B from 50 % crude isoacteoside extract was explored and optimized, with the maximum conversion rate reaching 69.42 % and the average producing rate reaching 0.37 g-1.L-1.h-1, which offered a great biocatalyst for potential industrial calceorioside B production. This is the first case for microorganism and rhamnosidase to show the hydrolysis ability to caffeic acid-modified PhGs.

Abstract
The xylanolytic enzymes Clocl_1795 and Clocl_2746 from glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 30 are highly abundant in the hemicellulolytic system of Acetivibrio clariflavus (Hungateiclostridium, Clostridium clariflavum). Clocl_1795 has been shown to be a xylobiohydrolase AcXbh30A releasing xylobiose from the non-reducing end of xylan and xylooligosaccharides. In this work, biochemical characterization of Clocl_2746 is presented. The protein, designated AcXyn30B, shows low sequence similarity to other GH30 members and phylogenetic analysis revealed that AcXyn30B and related proteins form a separate clade that is proposed to be a new subfamily GH30_12. AcXyn30B exhibits similar specific activity on glucuronoxylan, arabinoxylan, and aryl glycosides of linear xylooligosaccharides suggesting that it is a non-specific xylanase. From polymeric substrates, it releases the fragments of degrees of polymerization (DP) 2-6. Hydrolysis of different xylooligosaccharides indicates that AcXyn30B requires at least four occupied catalytic subsites for effective cleavage. The ability of the enzyme to hydrolyze a wide range of substrates is interesting for biotechnological applications. In addition to subfamilies GH30_7, GH30_8, and GH30_10, the newly proposed subfamily GH30_12 further widens the spectrum of GH30 subfamilies containing xylanolytic enzymes. KEY POINTS: Bacterial GH30 endoxylanase from A. clariflavus (AcXyn30B) has been characterized AcXyn30B is non-specific xylanase hydrolyzing various xylans and xylooligosaccharides Phylogenetic analysis placed AcXyn30B in a new GH30_12 subfamily.

Abstract
TcXyn30A from Talaromyces cellulolyticus, which belongs to subfamily 7 of the glycoside hydrolase family 30 (GH30-7), releases xylose from the reducing end of xylan and xylooligosaccharides (XOSs), the so-called reducing-end xylose-releasing exoxylanase (ReX). In this study, the crystal structures of TcXyn30A with and without xylose at subsite +1 (the binding site of the xylose residue at the reducing end) were determined. This is the first report on the structure of ReX in the family GH30-7. TcXyn30A forms a dimer. The complex structure of TcXyn30A with xylose revealed that subsite +1 is located at the dimer interface. TcXyn30A recognizes xylose at subsite +1 composed of amino acid residues from each monomer and blocks substrate binding to subsite +2 by dimer formation. Thus, the dimeric conformation is responsible for ReX activity. The structural comparison between TcXyn30A and the homologous enzyme indicated that subsite -2 is composed of assembled three stacked Trp residues, Trp49, Trp333, and Trp334, allowing TcXyn30A to accommodate xylan and any branched XOSs decorated with a substitution such as α-1,2-linked 4-O-methyl-d-glucuronic acid or α-1,2- and/or -1,3-linked L-arabinofuranose. These findings provide an insight into the structural determinants for ReX activity of TcXyn30A.

Abstract
Endo-1,4-β-xylanases (EC 3.2.1.8) are O-glycoside hydrolases that cleave the internal β-1,4-D-xylosidic linkages of the complex plant polysaccharide xylan. They are produced by a vast array of organisms where they play critical roles in xylan saccharification and plant cell wall hydrolysis. They are also important industrial biocatalysts with widespread application. A large and ever growing number of xylanases with wildly different properties and functionalites are known and a better understanding of these would enable a more effective use in various applications. The Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes database (CAZy), which classifies evolutionarily related proteins into a glycoside hydrolase family-subfamily organisational scheme has proven powerful in understanding these enzymes. Nevertheless, ambiguity currently exists as to the number of glycoside hydrolase families and subfamilies harbouring catalytic domains with true endoxylanase activity and as to the specific characteristics of each of these families/subfamilies. This review seeks to clarify this, identifying 9 glycoside hydrolase families containing enzymes with endo-1,4-β-xylanase activity and discussing their properties, similarities, differences and biotechnological perspectives. In particular, substrate specificities and hydrolysis patterns and the structural determinants of these are detailed, with taxonomic aspects of source organisms being also presented. Shortcomings in current knowledge and research areas that require further clarification are highlighted and suggestions for future directions provided. This review seeks to motivate further research on these enzymes and especially of the lesser known endo-1,4-β-xylanase containing families. A better understanding of these enzymes will serve as a foundation for the knowledge-based development of process-fitted endo-1,4-β-xylanases and will accelerate their development for use with even the most recalcitrant of substrates in the biobased industries of the future.

Abstract
Xylobiose is a prebiotic sugar that has applications in functional foods. This report describes the first X-ray crystallographic structure models of apo and xylobiose bound forms of a xylobiohydrolase (XBH) from Acetivibrio clariflavus. This xylan active enzyme, a member of the recently described glycoside hydrolase family 30 (GH30) subfamily 10 phylogenetic clade has been shown to strictly release xylobiose as its primary hydrolysis product. Inspection of the apo-structure reveals a glycone region X2 binding slot. When X2 binds, the nonreducing xylose in the -2 subsite is highly coordinated with numerous hydrogen bond contacts while contacts in the -1 subsite mostly reflect interactions typical for GH30 and enzymes in clan A of the carbohydrate-active enzymes database (CAZy). This structure provides an explanation for the high functional specificity of this new bacterial GH30 XBH subfamily.

Abstract
Fomitopsis palustris, a prominent wood decayer, is known to produce a variety of glycoside hydrolases (GHs). In this study, we characterized a fungal β-glycosidase belonging to subfamily 4 of GH family 30 (GH30). The recombinant protein (FpGH30) showed the highest hydrolytic activity toward p-nitrophenyl-β-d-fucopyranoside (pNPβFuc), followed by p-nitrophenyl-α-l-arabinopyranoside (pNPαAra) and p-nitrophenyl-β-d-galactopyranoside (pNPβGal). FpGH30 also exhibited transglycosylation activities, which catalyzed the transfer of glycosyl moieties to different glycosides and alkyl alcohols. When pNPβFuc, pNPβGal, and pNPαAra were used as substrates, self-condensation reactions occurred, leading to the production of the corresponding transglycosylated products with yields of 21, 26, and 25%, respectively. The enzyme was also able to catalyze the transfucosylation of pNP derivatives of β-d-glucose, β-d-mannose, and β-d-xylose and alkyl alcohols (C1-C6), producing the corresponding transfucosylated products and alkyl fucosides. Our study indicates that FpGH30 is the first characterized fungal β-glycosidase belonging to subfamily 4 of GH30 with transglycosylation activities.

Abstract
Efficient bioconversion of agro-industrial side streams requires a wide range of enzyme activities. Glycoside Hydrolase family 30 (GH30) is a diverse family that contains various catalytic functions and has so far been divided into ten subfamilies (GH30_1-10). In this study, a GH30 phylogenetic tree using over 150 amino acid sequences was contructed. The members of GH30 cluster into four subfamilies and eleven candidates from these subfamilies were selected for biochemical characterization. Novel enzyme activities were identified in GH30. GH30_3 enzymes possess β-(1→6)-glucanase activity. GH30_5 targets β-(1→6)-galactan with mainly β-(1→6)-galactobiohydrolase catalytic behavior. β-(1→4)-Xylanolytic enzymes belong to GH30_7 targeting β-(1→4)-xylan with several activities (e.g. xylobiohydrolase, endoxylanase). Additionally, a new fungal subfamily in GH30 was proposed, i.e. GH30_11, which displays β-(1→6)-galactobiohydrolase. This study confirmed that GH30 fungal subfamilies harbor distinct polysaccharide specificity and have high potential for the production of short (non-digestible) di- and oligosaccharides.
