Clostridium papyrosolvens CFR-1010 was selected for the anaerobic extracellular production of beta-1,4-glucosidase. The enzyme was purified by alcohol precipitation and DEAE ion-exchange chromatography. Its homogeneity was confirmed by SDS/PAGE. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 85 kDa. The maximum enzyme activity was observed at pH 5.0 and 50 degrees C. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Ca2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, Mg2+ and Na+ ions. However, the activity increased (158%) in the presence of MnCl2, whereas it decreased by 80% in the presence of N-bromosuccinimide, suggesting the presence of tryptophan residues at the active site of enzyme. The enzyme had a K(m) of 15 mg/ml and Vmax of 125 units/min per mg of protein.

Ruminiclostridium papyrosolvens is an anaerobic, mesophilic, and cellulolytic clostridia, promising consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) candidate for producing renewable green chemicals from cellulose, but its genetic transformation has been severely impeded by extracellular biofilm. Here, we analyzed the effects of five different inhibitors with gradient concentrations on R. papyrosolvens growth and biofilm formation.

Mesophilic, anaerobic, and cellulolytic -type bacterial species can secrete an extracellular, multi-enzyme machinery cellulosome, which efficiently degrades cellulose. In this study, we first reported the complete genome of DSM2782, a single circular 5,027,861-bp chromosome with 37.1% G + C content, and compared it with other -type species.

Ruminiclostridium papyrosolvens is an anaerobic, mesophilic, and cellulolytic clostridia, promising consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) candidate for producing renewable green chemicals from cellulose, but its metabolic engineering is limited by lack of genetic tools. Here, we firstly employed the endogenous xylan-inducible promoter to control ClosTron system for gene disruption of R. papyrosolvens.

D-allulose is one sort of C-3 epimer of D-fructose with the low calorie (0.4 kcal/g) and high sweetness (70% of the relative sweetness of sucrose), which can be biosynthesized by D-allulose-3-epimerase (DAE). In this work, we report the characterization of a novel DAE from (RpDAE) by genome mining approach.

Laminitis is the inflammation of the lamella, and it has caused great economic loss to the dairy industry and attracted wide attention around the world. In recent years, microbiota are considered to play a significant role in various diseases processes. Therefore, our study aimed to explore the characteristics of ruminal microbiota in laminitis cows.
