An extracellular 72-kDa xylanase from an Escherichia coli transformant that harbored pXED30 carrying xynE of Aeromonas caviae ME-1 was purified by extraction following SDS-PAGE to electrophoretic homogeneity. The analysis of N-terminal 10 amino acid residues (Gly-Ala-Arg-Ala-Gln-Ala-Ala-Ala-Asp-Val) revealed a 72-kDa product derived by the cleavage of Gly26-Gly27 at the N-terminal region of 110 kDa XynE. The 72-kDa xylanase from A. caviae ME-1 was found to have the same sequence as that of the N-terminal 10 amino acid residues. When OmpT-deficient E. coli mutants were used as hosts, the 72-kDa xylanase was detected in cell-free extracts, but not in the culture supernatant, suggesting that OmpT is not involved in the cleavage at the C-terminal region, but is involved in the secretion of 72-kDa xylanase to the culture medium.

Xylanases are hydrolytic enzymes with a wide range of applications in several industries such as biofuels, paper and pulp, food, and feed. The objective of this study was to optimize the culture conditions and medium components for maximal xylanase production from a newly isolated Trichoderma harzianum strain using the Plackett-Burman Design (PBD) and Box Behnken Design (BBD) experimental strategies. Xylanase production was enhanced 4.

In an attempt to find a thermostable xylanase enzyme for potential application in the pretreatment prior to H2O2 bleaching of paper pulp for industry, an extracellular xylanase from Aureobasidium pullulans CBS 135684 was purified 17.3-fold to apparent homogeneity with a recovery yield of 13.7%.
