Data on gene cloning, expression, purification, and characterization of the glycoside hydrolase family 11 from .

RB.IBE29 is a chitinolytic bacterium originally isolated from the rhizospheric soil of black pepper grown in Vietnam. This bacterium is a strong biocontrol agent against plant pathogens and possesses a novel chitinase system. Genome sequences available in CAZy database revealed possesses one gene encoding xylanase belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 11; however, this enzyme has yet to be un-experimentally characterized. In this work, gene was isolated from the genomic DNA of strain RB.IBE29 and cloned in DH5α cells using the pUC19 vector. Sequencing analysis showed that the ORF of contains 642 bp and encodes the deduced xylanase with 213 aa and 23.27 kDa. The domain structure of the enzyme has a signal peptide and a family 11 catalytic domain. (without peptide sequence) was successfully expressed in BL21-CodonPlus (DE3)-RIPL cells using the pColdII vector and purified using the HisTrap FF column. Purified recombinant xylanase degraded xylan substrates, had the highest hydrolytic activity at 55°C in 20 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6.0), and MgCl, CoCl, and MnCl enhanced the enzymatic activity. Nucleotide sequence of xyA was submitted to the DDBJ/GenBank/EMBL under accession number LC779040. This is the first data on the gene cloning, expression, purification, and characterization of the glycoside hydrolase family 11 from .
