Substrate Characterization for Hydrolysis of Multiple Types of Aromatic Esters by Promiscuous Aminopeptidases.

Synthetic aromatic esters, widely employed in agriculture, food, and chemical industries, have become emerging environmental pollutants due to their strong hydrophobicity and poor bioavailability. This study attempted to address this issue by extracellularly expressing the promiscuous aminopeptidase (Aps) from GF31 in , achieving an impressive enzyme activity of 13.7 U/mg.

A novel neutral and thermophilic endoxylanase from Streptomyces ipomoeae efficiently produced xylobiose from agricultural and forestry residues.

Endoxylanases capable of producing high ratios of xylobiose from agricultural and forestry residues in neutral and high temperature conditions are attractive for the prebiotic and alternative sweetener industries. In this study, a putative glycosyl hydrolase gene from Streptomyces ipomoeae was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme, named as SipoEnXyn10A, hydrolyzed beechwood xylan in endo-action mode releasing xylobiose as its main end product.

Purification and Characterization of a Novel β-Cypermethrin-Degrading Aminopeptidase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa GF31.

In this study, a novel β-cypermethrin-degrading enzyme was isolated and purified by 32.8 fold from the extracellular cell-free filtrate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa GF31with the protein recovery of 26.6%.

A novel non-hydrolytic protein from Pseudomonas oryzihabitans enhances the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose.

Several kinds of protein such as the expansin, expansin-like proteins and LPMOs (lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases) are known to exert enhancement effects on cellulase activity. In this study, a novel cellulase synergistic protein named POEP1 was purified from the culture filtrate of Pseudomonas oryzihabitans CGMCC 6169, and was homogeneous on SDS-PAGE with a molecular weight of 60kDa. Mass spectrometry analysis indicated that it was an unknown protein without sequence similarity to the expansin and expansin-like proteins.
