Production and characterization of xylanase from Thielaviopsis basicola

Summary The black rot fungus Thielaviopsis basicola has the ability to grow on cellulosic biomass, producing xylanase. Of the four cellulosic substrates tested, rice straw was found to be the best for production of xylanase. A xylanase activity of 34 U/ml was obtained with rice straw which was more than three times that obtained with larchwood xylan. The -xylosidase activities obtained with these two substrates were 0.05 U/ml and 0.016 U/ml respectively. Both enzymes are active at pH 5 but the temperature optima of xylanase and -xylosidase activities are 60°C and 40°C respectively. The xylanase activity is stable over a pH range of 4–8 but the stability towards temperature falls sharply above 50°C.     

Production and characterization of a xylanase from Cyathus stercoreus

Cyathus stercoreus grown on wheat straw had a higher xylanase activity than when it was grown on rice husk or extracted hemicellulose. Inclusion of casein hydrolysate, Tween 80 and Mn²⁺ (at 0.02%, 0.2% and 0.075%, respectively) increased the production of extracellular xylanase. Optimal yield of xylanase (0.73 U/ml) was at pH 5.6 after 9 to 12 days at 30°C. The xylanase was stable at pH 4.5 to 7.5 for 2h but above 50°C its stability fell sharply.The authors are with the Department of Microbiology, University of Delhi South Campus, Benito Juarez Road, New Delhi-110021, India;     

Purification, characterization, and molecular cloning of acidophilic xylanase from penicillium sp.40

Penicillum sp. 40, which can grow in an extremely acidic medium at pH 2.0 was screened from an acidic soil. This fungus produces xylanases when grown in a medium containing xylan as a sole carbon source. A major xylanase was purified from the culture supernatant of Penicillium sp. 40 and designated XynA. The molecular mass of XynA was estimated to be 25,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. XynA has an optimum pH at 2.0 and is stable in pH 2.0-5.0. Western blot analysis using anit-XynA antibody showed that XynA was induced by xylan and repressed by glucose. Also, its production was increased by an acidic medium. The gene encoding XynA (xynA) was isolated from the genomic library of Penicillium sp. 40. The structural part of xynA was found to be 721 bp. The nucleotide sequence of cDNA amplified by RT-PCR showed that the open reading frame of xynA was interrupted by a single intron which was 58 bp in size and encoded 221 amino acids. Direct N-terminal amino acid sequencing showed that the precursor of XynA had a signal peptide composed of 31 amino acids. The molecular mass caliculated from the deduced amino acid sequence of XynA is 20,713. This is lower than that estimated by gel electrophoresis, suggesting that XynA is a glycoprotein. The predicted amino acid sequence of XynA has strong similarity to other family xylanases from fungi.     

Structure of the xylanase from Penicillium simplicissimum.

Despite its relatively low pH and temperature optimum, the xylanase from Penicillium simplicissimum performs exceedingly well under conditions of paper bleaching. We have purified and characterized this enzyme, which belongs to family 10 of glycosyl hydrolases. Its gene was cloned, and the sequence of the protein was deduced from the nucleotide sequence. The xylanase was crystallized from ammonium sulfate at pH 8.4, and X-ray data were collected at cryo-temperature to a crystallographic resolution of 1.75 A. The crystal structure was solved by molecular replacement using the catalytic domain of the Clostridium thermocellum xylanase as a search model, and refined to a residual of R = 20% (R(free) = 23%) for data between 10 and 1.75 A. The xylanase folds in an (alpha/beta)8 barrel (TIM-barrel), with additional helices and loops arranged at the "top" forming the active site cleft. In its overall shape, the P. simplicissimum xylanase structure is similar to other family 10 xylanases, but its active site cleft is much shallower and wider. This probably accounts for the differences in catalysis and in the mode of action of this enzyme. Three glycerol molecules were observed to bind within the active site groove, one of which interacts directly with the catalytic glutamate residues. It appears that they occupy putative xylose binding subsites.     

Production of xylanase and protease by Penicillium janthinellum CRC 87M-115 from different agricultural wastes

Five agricultural wastes were evaluated in submerged fermentation for xylanolytic enzymes production by Penicillium janthinellum. The wastes were hydrolyzed in acid medium and the liquid fraction was used for cultivation. Corn cob (55.3 U/mL) and oat husk (54.8 U/mL) were the best inducers of xylanase. Sugar cane bagasse (23.0 U/mL) and corn husk (23.8 U/mL) were moderately good, while cassava peel was negligible. Protease production was very low in all agro-industrial residues. The maximum biomass yields were 1.30 and 1.17 g/L for cassava peel and corn husk after 180 h, respectively. Xylanolytic activity showed a cell growth associated profile.     

Production and characterization of xylanase from Bacillus thermoalkalophilus grown on agricultural wastes

Summary Bacillus thermoalkalophilus isolated from termite-infested mound soils of the semi-arid zones of India had the ability to produce good amounts of xylanase(s) from cheap agricultural wastes. Of the two hemicellulosic substrates tested, bagasse was found to be the better inducer for xylanase production. Alkali treatment of bagasse and rice husk had varied effects on enzyme production. The enzyme preparation had activity optima at 60° C and 70° C and a half-life of 60 min at 65° C. The enzyme was stable for 24 h over a pH range of 4.0–6.0, while maximum activity was observed at pH 6.0–7.0. Enzyme production and activity were inhibited by the end-product of xylan hydrolysis, xylose. Offprint requests to: Ajit Varma

Production of alpha-amylase and xylanase by an alkalophilic strain of Penicillium griseoroseum RR-99

An alkalophilic strain of Penicillium sp. RR 99 was isolated that was found to synthesise extra-cellular alpha-amylase and xylanase, when cultivated in presence of starch and xylan respectively. The strain showed maximum alpha-amylolytic activity on 4th day and maximum xylanolytic activity on 6th day of cultivation. The ability of the strain to hydrolyse starchy and hemicellulosic wastes made the strain competent not only for the commercial production of these enzymes but also for successful utilization of wastes.     

A novel cellulase free alkaliphilic xylanase from alkali tolerant Penicillium citrinum: production, purification and characterization

AIMS: The enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan has potential economic and environment-friendly applications. Therefore, attention is focused here on the discovery of new extremophilic xylanase in order to meet the requirements of industry. METHODS AND RESULTS: An extracellular xylanase was purified from the culture filtrate of P. citrinum grown on wheat bran bed in solid substrate fermentation. Single step purification was achieved using hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The purified enzyme showed a single band on SDS-PAGE with an apparent molecular weight of c. 25 kDa and pI of 3.6. Stimulation of the activity by beta mercaptoethanol, dithiotheritol (DTT) and cysteine was observed. Moderately thermostable xylanase showed optimum activity at 50 degrees C at pH 8.5. CONCLUSION: Xylanase purified from P. citrinum was alkaliphilic and moderately thermostable in nature. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The present work reports for the first time the purification and characterization of a novel endoglucanase free alkaliphilic xylanase from the alkali tolerant fungus Penicillium citrinum. The alkaliphilicity and moderate thermostability of this xylanase may have potential implications in paper and pulp industries.
