The hydrolytic properties of a hybrid xylanase (ATx) and its parents (reAnxA and reTfxA) were studied using xylans and xylooligosaccharides as substrates. Analysis of reaction mixtures by high-performance liquid chromatograph revealed that xylotriose (X3) was the main product released from birchwood xylan and wheat bran insoluble xylan by ATx and reAnxA, respectively. Xylobiose (X2) was the main product separately released from birchwood xylan and wheat bran insoluble xylan by reTfxA. Xylotetraose (X4), xylopentaose (X5), and xylohexaose (X6) could be hydrolyzed by ATx, which showed no activity on X2 and X3. Therefore, X4 might be the minimum oligomer hydrolyzed by ATx. X2-X6 could be hydrolyzed by reAnxA and reTfxA, respectively. All of ATx, reAnxA, and reTfxA showed transglycosylation activity.

To improve the thermostability and catalytic activity of Aspergillus niger xylanase A (AnxA), its N-terminus was substituted with the corresponding region of Thermomonospora fusca xylanase A (TfxA). The constructed hybrid xylanase, named ATx, was overexpressed in Pichia pastoris and secreted into the medium. After 96-h 0.
