Verrucomicrobia of the Family Chthoniobacteraceae Participate in Xylan Degradation in Boreal Peat Soils [PDF]

Microorganisms
The phylum Verrucomicrobiota is one of the main groups of soil prokaryotes, which remains poorly represented by cultivated organisms. The major recognized role of Verrucomicrobiota in soils is the degradation of plant-derived organic matter.

Characterization of a highly xylose tolerant β-xylosidase isolated from high temperature horse manure compost

BMC Biotechnology, 2021
Background There is a continued need for improved enzymes for industry. β-xylosidases are enzymes employed in a variety of industries and although many wild-type and engineered variants have been described, enzymes that are highly tolerant of the ...

Structural Characterization of β-Xylosidase XynB2 from Geobacillus stearothermophilus CECT43: A Member of the Glycoside Hydrolase Family GH52

Crystals, 2023
β-xylosidases (4-β-d-xylan xylohydrolase, E.C. 3.2.1.37) are glycoside hydrolases (GH) catalyzing the hydrolysis of (1→4)-β-d-xylans, allowing for the removal of β-d-xylose residues from its non-reducing termini.

Structural basis of product inhibition by arabinose and xylose of the thermostable GH43 β-1,4-xylosidase from Geobacillus thermoleovorans IT-08. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Complete degradation of the xylan backbone of hemicellulosic plant cell walls requires the synergistic action of endo-xylanases and β-1,4-xylosidases.

Effect of Oligosaccharide Degree of Polymerization on the Induction of Xylan-Degrading Enzymes by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Lycopersici

Molecules, 2020
Xylan is one of the most abundant carbohydrates on Earth. Complete degradation of xylan is achieved by the collaborative action of endo-β-1,4-xylanases and β-d-xylosidases and a number of accessories enzymes.

Functional screening of a Caatinga goat (Capra hircus) rumen metagenomic library reveals a novel GH3 β-xylosidase.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Functional screening of metagenomic libraries is an effective approach for identification of novel enzymes. A Caatinga biome goat rumen metagenomic library was screened using esculin as a substrate, and a gene from an unknown bacterium encoding a novel ...

Discovery of a Novel β-xylosidase with Xylanase Activity and Its Application in the Production of Xylitol from Corncob Xylan

Fermentation, 2023
Although β-xylosidases with xylanase activity are preferential for the hydrolysis of xylan and production of xylitol, reports on their use are scarce. In this study, a multifunctional β-xylosidase (XYL4) was identified.

Forgotten Actors: Glycoside Hydrolases During Elongation Growth of Maize Primary Root

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Plant cell enlargement is coupled to dynamic changes in cell wall composition and properties. Such rearrangements are provided, besides the differential synthesis of individual cell wall components, by enzymes that modify polysaccharides in muro.

Exploring the Molecular Basis for Substrate Affinity and Structural Stability in Bacterial GH39 β-Xylosidases

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The glycoside hydrolase family 39 (GH39) is a functionally expanding family with limited understanding about the molecular basis for substrate specificity and extremophilicity.
