Abstract
-
A xylan-degrading bacterium, designated as MS5T strain, was
isolated from soil collected from the Jeju Island, Republic
of Korea. Strain MS5T was Gram-stain-positive, aerobic,
and motile by polar flagellum. The major fatty acids identified
in this bacterium were iso-C15:0 (32.3%), C16:0 (27.3%),
and anteiso-C15:0 (10.2%). A similarity search based on the
16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the strain belongs to
the class Bacilli and shared the highest similarity with the
type strains Bacillus beringensis BR035T (98.7%) and Bacillus
korlensis ZLC-26T (98.6%) which form a coherent cluster in
a neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree. The DNA G+C content
of strain MS5T was 43.0 mol%. The major menaquinone
was MK-7 and the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall
peptidoglycan was meso-diaminopimelic acid. The DNADNA
relatedness values between strain MS5T and two closely
related species, B. beringensis BR035T and B. korlensis ZLC-
26T, were less than 70%. DNA-DNA relatedness analysis
and 16S rRNA sequence similarity, as well as phenotypic and
chemotaxonomic characteristics suggest that the strain MS5T
constitutes a novel Bacillus species, for which the name
Bacillus coreaensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is
MS5T (=DSM25506T =KCTC13895T).

Abstract
-
The gene (1350-bp) encoding a modular β-1,4-xylanase (XylU),
which consists of an N-terminal catalytic GH10 domain and
a C-terminal carbohydrate-binding module 2 (CBM 2), from
Streptomyces mexicanus HY-14 was cloned and functionally
characterized. The purified His-tagged recombinant enzyme
(rXylU, 44.0 kDa) was capable of efficiently hydrolyze diverse
xylosidic compounds, p-nitrophenyl-cellobioside, and pnitrophenyl-
xylopyranoside when incubated at pH 5.5 and
65°C. Especially, the specific activities (649.8 U/mg and 587.0
U/mg, respectively) of rXylU toward oat spelts xylan and
beechwood xylan were relatively higher than those (<500.0
U/mg) of many other GH10 homologs toward the same
substrates. The results of enzymatic degradation of birchwood
xylan and xylooligosaccharides (xylotriose to xylohexaose)
revealed that rXylU preferentially hydrolyzed the
substrates to xylobiose (>75%) as the primary degradation
product. Moreover, a small amount (4%<) of xylose was detected
as the degradation product of the evaluated xylosidic
substrates, indicating that rXylU was a peculiar GH10 β-1,4-
xylanase with substrate specificity, which was different from
its retaining homologs. A significant reduction of the binding
ability of rXylU caused by deletion of the C-terminal CBM
2 to various insoluble substrates strongly suggested that the
additional domain might considerably contribute to the
enzyme-substrate interaction.

Abstract
-
A mesophilic, facultative, anaerobic, xylanolytic-cellulolytic bacterium, TW1T, was isolated from sludge in an anaerobic digester fed with pineapple waste. Cells stained Gram-positive, were spore-forming, and had the morphology of straight to slightly curved rods. Growth was observed in the temperature range of 30 to 50°C (optimum 37°C) and the pH range of 6.0 to 7.5 (optimum pH 7.0) under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone with seven isoprene units (MK-7). Anteiso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, anteiso-C17:0, and C16:0 were the predominant cellular fatty acids. The G+C content of the DNA was 49.5 mol%. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA showed that strain TW1T belonged within the genus Paenibacillus and was closely related to Paenibacillus cellulosilyticus LMG 22232T, P. curdlanolyticus KCTC 3759T, and P. kobensis KCTC 3761T with 97.7, 97.5, and 97.3% sequence similarity, respectively. The DNA-DNA hybridization values between the isolate and type strains of P. cellulosilyticus LMG 22232T, P. curdlanolyticus KCTC 3759T, and P. kobensis KCTC 3761T were found to be 18.6, 18.3, and 18.0%, respectively. The protein and xylanase patterns of strain TW1T were quite different from those of the type strains of closely related Paenibacillus species. On the basis of DNA-DNA relatedness and phenotypic analyses, phylogenetic data and the enzymatic pattern presented in this study, strain TW1T should be classified as a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus xylaniclasticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TW1T (=NBRC 106381T =KCTC 13719T =TISTR 1914T).

Abstract
-
A non-cellulosomal xylanase from Clostridium thermocellum, XynX, consists of a family-22 carbohydratebinding module (CBM22), a family-10 glycoside hydrolase (GH10) catalytic module, two family-9 carbohydrate-binding modules (CBM9-I and CBM9-II), and an S-layer homology (SLH) module. E. coli BL21(DE3) (pKM29), a transformant carrying xynX', produced several truncated forms of the enzyme.
Among them, three major active species were purified by SDS-PAGE, activity staining, gel-slicing, and diffusion from the gel. The truncated xylanases were different from each other only in their C-terminal regions. In addition to the CBM22 and GH10 catalytic modules, XynX1 had the CBM9-I and most of the CBM9-II, XynX2 had the CBM9-I and about 40% of the CBM9-II, and XynX3 had about 75% of the CBM9-I. The truncated xylanases showed higher binding capacities toward Avicel than those toward insoluble xylan. XynX1 showed a higher affinity toward Avicel (70.5%) than XynX2 (46.0%) and XynX3 (42.1%); however, there were no significant differences in the affinities toward insoluble xylan. It is suggested that the CBM9 repeat, especially CBM9-II, of XynX plays a role in xylan degradation in nature by strengthening cellulose binding rather than by enhancing xylan binding.

Abstract

Alkalophilic Cephalosporium sp. RYM-202 produced multiple xylanases extracellularly. One of these xylanases was purified to electrophoretical homogeneity by chromatography with DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephacryl S-200 HR and Superose 12 HR. The purified xylanase differed from most other microbial xylanases in that it had low-molecular weight and acidic isoelectric point. The molecular weight of the xylanase in that it had low-molecular weight and acidic isoelectric point. The molecular weight of the xylanase was 23 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide electrophoresis and 24 kDa by gel permeation chromatography, and the isoelectric point was 4.3. The xylanase had the highest activity permentation chromatography, and the isoelectric point was 4.3. The xylanase had the highest activity permeation chromatography, and the isoelectric point was 4.3. The xylanase had the highest activity at pH 8.0 and 50℃. It was stable over a wide range of pH and retained more than 80% of its original activity after 24 h of incubation even at pH 12. The Km values of this enzyme on birchwood xylan and oat spelts xylan were 2.33 and 3.45 mg/ml, respectively. The complete inhibition of the enzyme of n-bromosuccinimide suggests the involvement of tryptophan in the active site. The sylanase lacked activity towards crystalline cellulose and carboxymethyl cellulose.

Abstract

Fungi commonly encountered on monocotyledonous substrates were evaluated for their in vitro ability to produce enzymes involved in lignocellulose breakdown. Most were capable of structural polysaccharide utilization, but few produced enzymes associated with lignin breakdown. None of the monocotyledon-inhabiting fungi produced reactions as strongly as wood decay fungi.
