Identification and Characterization of a Novel Thermostable and Salt-Tolerant ?-1,3 Xylanase from Flammeovirga pacifica Strain WPAGA1.

ABSTRACT: ?-1,3 xylanase is an important enzyme in the biorefinery process for some algae. The discovery and characterization of new ?-1,3 xylanase is a hot research topic. In this paper, a novel ?-1,3 xylanase (Xyl88) is revealed from the annotated genome of Flammeovirga pacifica strain WPAGA1. Bioinformatic analysis shows that Xyl88 belongs to the glycoside hydrolase 26 (GH26) with a suspected CBM (carbohydrate-binding module) sequence. The activity of rXyl88 is 75% of the highest enzyme activity (1.5 mol/L NaCl) in 3 mol/L NaCl buffer, which suggests good salt tolerance of rXy188. The optimum reaction temperature in the buffer without NaCl and with 1.5 mol/L NaCl is 45 °C and 55 °C, respectively. Notably, the catalytic efficiency of rXyl88 (kcat/Km) is approximately 20 higher than that of the thermophilic ?-1,3 xylanase that has the highest catalytic efficiency. Xyl88 in this study becomes the most efficient enzyme ever found, and it is also the first reported moderately thermophilic and salt-tolerant ?-1,3 xylanase. Results of molecular dynamics simulation further prove the excellent thermal stability of Xyl88. Moreover, according to the predicted 3D structure of the Xyl88, the surface of the enzyme is distributed with more negative charges, which is related to its salt tolerance, and significantly more hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals force between the intramolecular residues, which is related to its thermal stability.

Project description:Xylanolytic enzymes have a broad range of applications in industrial biotechnology as biocatalytic components of various processes and products, such as food additives, bakery products, coffee extraction, agricultural silage and functional foods. An increasing market demand has driven the growing interest for the discovery of xylanases with specific industrially relevant characteristics, such as stability at elevated temperatures and in the presence of other denaturing factors, which will facilitate their incorporation into industrial processes. In this work, we report the discovery and biochemical characterization of a new thermostable GH10 xylanase, termed XynDZ5, exhibiting only 26% amino acid sequence identity to the closest characterized xylanolytic enzyme. This new enzyme was discovered in an Icelandic hot spring enrichment culture of a Thermoanaerobacterium species using a recently developed bioinformatic analysis platform. XynDZ5 was produced recombinantly in Escherichia coli, purified and characterized biochemically. This analysis revealed that it acts as an endo-1,4-β-xylanase that performs optimally at 65-75°C and pH 7.5. The enzyme is capable of retaining high levels of catalytic efficiency after several hours of incubation at high temperatures, as well as in the presence of significant concentrations of a range of metal ions and denaturing agents. Interestingly, the XynDZ5 biochemical profile was found to be atypical, as it also exhibits significant exo-activity. Computational modeling of its three-dimensional structure predicted a (β/α)8 TIM barrel fold, which is very frequently encountered among family GH10 enzymes. This modeled structure has provided clues about structural features that may explain aspects of its catalytic performance. Our results suggest that XynDZ5 represents a promising new candidate biocatalyst appropriate for several high-temperature biotechnological applications in the pulp, paper, baking, animal-feed and biofuel industries.
