Two family 11 endoxylanases (EC 3.2.1.8) were functionally displayed on the surface of bacteriophage M13. The genes encoding endo-1,4-xylanase I from Aspergillus niger (ExlA) and endo-1,4-xylanase A from Bacillus subtilis (XynA) were fused to the gene encoding the minor coat protein g3p in phagemid vector pHOS31. Phage rescue resulted in functional monovalent display of the enzymes as was demonstrated by three independent tests. Firstly, purified recombinant phage particles showed a clear hydrolytic activity in an activity assay based on insoluble, chromagenic arabinoxylan substrate. Secondly, specific binding of endoxylanase displaying phages to immobilized endoxylanase inhibitors was demonstrated by interaction ELISA. Finally, two rounds of selection and amplification in a biopanning procedure against immobilized endoxylanase inhibitor were performed. Phages displaying endoxylanases were strongly enriched from background phages displaying unrelated proteins. These results open perspectives to use phage display for analysing protein-protein interactions at the interface between endoxylanases and their inhibitors. In addition, this technology should enable engineering of endoxylanases into novel variants with altered binding properties towards endoxylanase inhibitors.

The phylum is one of the main groups of soil prokaryotes, which remains poorly represented by cultivated organisms. The major recognized role of in soils is the degradation of plant-derived organic matter. These bacteria are particularly abundant in peatlands, where xylan-type hemicelluloses represent one of the most actively decomposed peat constituents.

Xylanases require thermal stability to withstand the pelleting process, pH stability to function in the gastrointestinal tract, and resistance to xylanase inhibitors in raw materials to be effective in animal feed. A GH11 family xylanase originating from an anaerobic fungus, Orpinomyces sp. strain PC-2, has high specific activity and resistance to xylanase inhibitors intrinsically.

Microbial xylanase has a wide range of applications, and many researchers favoring its utilization as an alternative to improve flour products. Wheat flour is the main raw material of flour products, although the content of arabinoxylan is not high in flour products, but it has a great influence on the quality of flour products, microbial xylanase can act on wheat arabinoxylan, so as to play the role of flour product improvement. This review carries out a description of the research progress on the application of xylanases in flour products in terms of xylanase properties, different families of xylanases and improvement mechanisms of xylanases in flour products.

Elucidating Thermothielavioides terrestris secretome changes for improved saccharification of mild steam-pretreated spruce.

Biotechnol Biofuels Bioprod

Division of Industrial Biotechnology, Department of Life Sciences, Chalmers University of Technology, Kemivägen 10, 412 96, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how the fungus Thermothielavioides terrestris LPH172 interacts with different types of steam-pretreated spruce materials and untreated biomass, exploring how these substrates influence the production of enzymes in the fungus.
  • Results show that the type of spruce material affects the expression of specific enzymes, with higher levels of mannanases produced when grown on certain pretreated materials compared to untreated biomass.
  • Supplementing standard commercial enzyme mixtures with the secretome from T. terrestris significantly enhanced the efficiency of mannose release from treated spruce, indicating its potential to improve biorefinery processes.

Article Synopsis
  • An endo-xylanase enzyme (Scxyn5) from the fungus Schizophyllum commune was successfully expressed in the P. pastoris system, demonstrating significant stability and activity in high concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide and sodium chloride.
  • Scxyn5 showcased varying catalytic efficiency when breaking down different substrates, notably increasing its activity by 1.3-2.03 times on corn fiber gum when sodium chloride was added.
  • The optimal conditions for Scxyn5 to effectively hydrolyze the corn fiber gum were identified as 50 °C, pH 6.0, and 4 M NaCl, making it suitable for producing arabinoxylan-oligosaccharides and other potential food industry applications.
