Diversity of Marine 1,3-Xylan-Utilizing Bacteria and Characters of Their Extracellular 1,3-Xylanases.

ABSTRACT: 1,3-xylan is present in the cell walls of some red and green algae and is an important organic carbon in the ocean. However, information on its bacterial degradation is quite limited. Here, after enrichment with 1,3-xylan, the diversity of bacteria recovered from marine algae collected in Hainan, China, was analyzed with both the 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and the culture-dependent method. Bacteria recovered were affiliated with more than 19 families mainly in phyla Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes, suggesting a high bacterial diversity. Moreover, 12 strains with high 1,3-xylanase-secreting ability from genera Vibrio, Neiella, Alteromonas, and Gilvimarinus were isolated from the enrichment culture. The extracellular 1,3-xylanases secreted by Vibrio sp. EA2, Neiella sp. GA3, Alteromonas sp. CA13-2, and Gilvimarinus sp. HA3-2, which were taken as representatives due to their efficient utilization of 1,3-xylan for growth, were further characterized. The extracellular 1,3-xylanases secreted by these strains showed the highest activity at pH 6.0-7.0 and 30-40°C in 0-0.5M NaCl, exhibiting thermo-unstable and alkali-resistant characters. Their degradation products on 1,3-xylan were mainly 1,3-xylobiose and 1,3-xylotriose. This study reveals the diversity of marine bacteria involved in the degradation and utilization of 1,3-xylan, helpful in our understanding of the recycling of 1,3-xylan driven by bacteria in the ocean and the discovery of novel 1,3-xylanases.

Project description:Xylanases play a crucial role in the degradation of xylan in both terrestrial and marine environments. The endoxylanase XynB from the marine bacterium Glaciecola mesophila KMM 241 is a modular enzyme comprising a long N-terminal domain (NTD) (E44 to T562) with xylan-binding ability and a catalytic domain (CD) (T563 to E912) of glycoside hydrolase family 8 (GH8). In this study, the long NTD is confirmed to contain three different functional regions, which are NTD1 (E44 to D136), NTD2 (Y137 to A193), and NTD3 (L194 to T562). NTD1, mainly composed of eight β-strands, functions as a new type of carbohydrate-binding module (CBM), which has xylan-binding ability but no sequence similarity to any known CBM. NTD2, mainly forming two α-helices, contains one of the α-helices of the catalytic domain's (α/α)6 barrel and therefore is essential for the activity of XynB, although it is far away from the catalytic domain in sequence. NTD3, next to the catalytic domain in sequence, is shown to be helpful in maintaining the thermostability of XynB. Thus, XynB represents a kind of xylanase with a new domain architecture. There are four other predicted glycoside hydrolase sequences with the same domain architecture and high sequence identity (≥80%) with XynB, all of which are from marine bacteria. Phylogenetic analysis shows that XynB and these homologs form a new group in GH8, representing a new class of marine bacterial xylanases. Our results shed light on xylanases, especially marine xylanases.IMPORTANCE Xylanases play a crucial role in natural xylan degradation and have been extensively used in industries such as food processing, animal feed, and kraft pulp biobleaching. Some marine bacteria have been found to secrete xylanases. Characterization of novel xylanases from marine bacteria has significance for both the clarification of xylan degradation mechanisms in the sea and the development of new enzymes for industrial application. With G. mesophila XynB as a representative, this study reveals a new group of the GH8 xylanases from marine bacteria, which have a distinct domain architecture and contain a novel carbohydrate-binding module. Thus, this study offers new knowledge on marine xylanases.
