A novel mechanism of xylan binding by a lectin-like module from Streptomyces lividans xylanase 10A.

ABSTRACT: The C-terminal module of xylanase 10A from Streptomyces lividans is a family 13 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM13). CBM13 binds mono- and oligo-saccharides with association constants of approximately 1x10(2) M(-1)-1x10(3) M(-1). It appears to be specific only for pyranose sugars. CBM13 binds insoluble and soluble xylan, holocellulose, pachyman, lichenan, arabinogalactan and laminarin. The association constant for binding to soluble xylan is (6.2+/-0. 6)x10(3)/mol of xylan polymer. Site-directed mutation indicates the involvement of three functional sites on CBM13 in binding to soluble xylan. The sites are similar in sequence, and are predicted to have similar structures, to the alpha, beta and gamma sites of ricin toxin B-chain, which is also in family 13. The affinity of a single binding site on CBM13 for soluble xylan is only approximately (0. 5+/-0.1)x10(3)/mol of xylan. The binding of CBM13 to soluble xylan involves additive and co-operative interactions between the three binding sites. This mechanism of binding has not previously been reported for CBMs binding polysaccharides. CBM13 is the first bacterial module from family 13 to be described in detail.

Ligand Binding Enhances Millisecond Conformational Exchange in Xylanase B2 from Streptomyces lividans.

Project description:Xylanases catalyze the hydrolysis of xylan, an abundant carbon and energy source with important commercial ramifications. Despite tremendous efforts devoted to the catalytic improvement of xylanases, success remains limited because of our relatively poor understanding of their molecular properties. Previous reports suggested the potential role of atomic-scale residue dynamics in modulating the catalytic activity of GH11 xylanases; however, dynamics in these studies was probed on time scales orders of magnitude faster than the catalytic time frame. Here, we used nuclear magnetic resonance titration and relaxation dispersion experiments ((15)N-CPMG) in combination with X-ray crystallography and computational simulations to probe conformational motions occurring on the catalytically relevant millisecond time frame in xylanase B2 (XlnB2) and its catalytically impaired mutant E87A from Streptomyces lividans 66. Our results show distinct dynamical properties for the apo and ligand-bound states of the enzymes. The apo form of XlnB2 experiences conformational exchange for residues in the fingers and palm regions of the catalytic cleft, while the catalytically impaired E87A variant displays millisecond dynamics only in the fingers, demonstrating the long-range effect of the mutation on flexibility. Ligand binding induces enhanced conformational exchange of residues interacting with the ligand in the fingers and thumb loop regions, emphasizing the potential role of residue motions in the fingers and thumb loop regions for recognition, positioning, processivity, and/or stabilization of ligands in XlnB2. To the best of our knowledge, this work represents the first experimental characterization of millisecond dynamics in a GH11 xylanase family member. These results offer new insights into the potential role of conformational exchange in GH11 enzymes, providing essential dynamic information to help improve protein engineering and design applications.

Novel xylan-binding properties of an engineered family 4 carbohydrate-binding module.

Project description:Molecular engineering of ligand-binding proteins is commonly used for identification of variants that display novel specificities. Using this approach to introduce novel specificities into CBMs (carbohydrate-binding modules) has not been extensively explored. Here, we report the engineering of a CBM, CBM4-2 from the Rhodothermus marinus xylanase Xyn10A, and the identification of the X-2 variant. As compared with the wild-type protein, this engineered module displays higher specificity for the polysaccharide xylan, and a lower preference for binding xylo-oligomers rather than binding the natural decorated polysaccharide. The mode of binding of X-2 differs from other xylan-specific CBMs in that it only has one aromatic residue in the binding site that can make hydrophobic interactions with the sugar rings of the ligand. The evolution of CBM4-2 has thus generated a xylan-binding module with different binding properties to those displayed by CBMs available in Nature.

Purification and properties of a xylanase from Streptomyces lividans.

Project description:An extracellular xylanase produced by a cellulase-negative mutant strain of Streptomyces lividans 1326 was purified to homogeneity. The purified enzyme has an apparent Mr of 43,000 and pI of 5.2. The pH and temperature optima for the activity were 6.0 and 60 degrees C respectively, and the Km and Vmax. values, determined with a soluble oat spelts xylan, were 0.78 mg/ml and 0.85 mmol/min per mg of enzyme. The xylanase showed no activity towards CM-cellulose and p-nitrophenyl beta-D-xyloside. The enzyme degraded xylan, producing mainly xylobiose, a mixture of xylo-oligosaccharides and a small amount of xylose as end products. Its pattern of action on beta-1,4-D-xylan indicates that it is a beta-1,4-endoxylanase (EC 3.2.1.8).

Substrate-binding domains of glycanases from Streptomyces lividans: characterization of a new family of xylan-binding domains.

Project description:The substrate-binding domains of six glycanases from Streptomyces lividans were investigated to determine their specificity towards cellulose and xylan. Based upon amino acid sequence similarities, four of the six domains could be assigned to existing cellulose-binding domain families. However, the binding domains of xylanase A and arabinofuranosidase B could not be classified in any of the known families and should therefore be classified as members of a new family. Evidence is also presented that this new family is one of true xylan-binding domains.

A modular xylanase containing a novel non-catalytic xylan-specific binding domain.

Project description:Xylanase D (XYLD) from Cellulomonas fimi contains a C-terminal cellulose-binding domain (CBD) and an internal domain that exhibits 65% sequence identity with the C-terminal CBD. Full-length XYLD binds to both cellulose and xylan. Deletion of the C-terminal CBD from XYLD abolishes the capacity of the enzyme to bind to cellulose, although the truncated xylanase retains its xylan-binding properties. A derivative of XYLD lacking both the C-terminal CBD and the internal CBD homologue did not bind to either cellulose or xylan. A fusion protein consisting of the XYLD internal CBD homologue linked to the C-terminus of glutathione S-transferase (GST) bound to xylan, but not to cellulose, while GST bound to neither of the polysaccharides. The Km and specific activity of full-length XYLD and truncated derivatives of the enzyme lacking the C-terminal CBD (XYLDcbd), and both the CBD and the internal CBD homologue (XYLDcd), were determined with soluble and insoluble xylan as the substrates. The data showed that the specific activities of the three enzymes were similar for both substrates, as were the Km values for soluble substrate. However, the Km values of XYLD and XYLDcbd for insoluble xylan were significantly lower than the Km of XYLDcd. Overall, these data indicate that the internal CBD homologue in XYLD constitutes a discrete xylan-binding domain which influences the affinity of the enzyme for insoluble xylan but does not directly affect the catalytic activity of the xylanase. The rationale for the evolution of this domain is discussed.

Purification and characterization of a new xylanase (xylanase B) produced by Streptomyces lividans 66.

Project description:A new extracellular xylanase produced by Streptomyces lividans 66 was isolated from a genetically engineered clone of that strain. This enzyme, named xylanase B, has an Mr of 31,000 and acts specifically on xylan as an endo-type xylanase producing short-chain xylo-oligosaccharides. The activity is optimal at pH 6.5 and at a temperature of 55 degrees C, which is similar to that of the previously characterized xylanase A. Xylanase B is glycosylated and has a pI of 8.4; its Km and Vmax. values are 3.71 mg/ml and 1.96 mmol/mg of enzyme respectively. Specific antibodies raised against xylanase A show no cross-reaction with xylanase B; however, the anti-(xylanase B) antibodies react slightly with xylanase A. A comparison of the hydrolysis products obtained from oat-spelts xylan with both enzymes show that xylanase A preferentially degrades short-chain oligo-xylosides, whereas xylanase B acts on the longer, water-insoluble, molecules.

Purification and characterization of an acetyl xylan esterase produced by Streptomyces lividans.

Project description:The acetyl xylan esterase cloned homologously from Streptomyces lividans [Shareck, Biely, Morosoli and Kluepfel (1995) Gene 153, 105-109] was purified from culture filtrate of the overproducing strain S. lividans IAF43. The secreted enzyme had a molecular mass of 34 kDa and a pI of 9.0. Under the assay conditions with chemically acetylated birchwood xylan the kinetic constants of the enzyme were: specific activity, 715 units/mg, Km 7.94 mg/ml and Vmax 1977 units/mg. Optimal enzyme activity was obtained at 70 degrees C and pH 7.5. Hydrolysis assays with different acetylated substrates showed that the enzyme is specific for deacetylating the O-acetyl group of polysaccharides and is devoid of N-deacetylation activity. Sequential hydrolysis shows that its action is essential for the complete degradation of acetylated xylan by the xylanases of S. lividans.

Synergistic effect of acetyl xylan esterase from Talaromyces leycettanus JCM12802 and xylanase from Neocallimastix patriciarum achieved by introducing carbohydrate-binding module-1.

Project description:Wheat bran is an effective raw material for preparation xylooligosaccharides; however, current research mainly focuses on alkali extraction and enzymatic hydrolysis methods. Since ester bonds are destroyed during the alkali extraction process, xylanase and arabinofuranosidase are mainly used to hydrolyze xylooligosaccharides. However, alkali extraction costs are very high, and the method also causes pollution. Therefore, this study focuses on elucidating a method to efficiently and directly degrade destarched wheat bran. First, an acidic acetyl xylan esterase (AXE) containing a carbohydrate-binding module-1 (CBM1) domain was cloned from Talaromyces leycettanus JCM12802 and successfully expressed in Pichia pastoris. Characterization showed that the full-length acetyl xylan esterase AXE?+?CBM1 was similar toe uncovered AXE with an optimum temperature and pH of 55 °C and 6.5, respectively. Testing the acetyl xylan esterase and xylanase derived from Neocallimastix patriciarum in a starch-free wheat bran cooperative experiment revealed that AXE?+?CBM1 and AXE produced 29% and 16% reducing sugars respectively, compared to when only NPXYN11 was used. In addition, introduced the CBM1 domain into NPXYN11, and the results indicated that the CBM1 domain showed little effect on NPXYN11 properties. Finally, the systematically synergistic effects between acetyl xylan esterase and xylanase with/without the CBM1 domain demonstrated that the combined ratio of AXE?+?CBM1 coming in first and NPXYN11?+?CBM1 s increased reducing sugars by almost 35% with AXE and NPXYN11. Furthermore, each component's proportion remained the same with respect to xylooligosaccharides, with the largest proportion (86%) containing of 49% xylobiose and 37% xylotriose.

Novel aminoacylases from Streptomyces griseus DSM 40236 and their recombinant production in Streptomyces lividans.

Project description:Amino acid-based surfactants are valuable compounds for cosmetic formulations. The chemical synthesis of acyl amino acids is conventionally performed by the Schotten-Baumann reaction using fatty acyl chlorides, but aminoacylases have also been investigated for use in biocatalytic synthesis with free fatty acids. Aminoacylases and their properties are diverse; they belong to different peptidase families and show differences in substrate specificity and biocatalytic potential. Bacterial aminoacylases capable of synthesis have been isolated from Burkholderia, Mycolicibacterium, and Streptomyces. Although several proteases and peptidases from S. griseus have been described, no aminoacylases from this species have been identified yet. In this study, we investigated two novel enzymes produced by S. griseus DSM 40236T . We identified and cloned the respective genes and recombinantly expressed an α-aminoacylase (EC3.5.1.14), designated SgAA, and an ε-lysine acylase (EC3.5.1.17), designated SgELA, in S. lividans TK23. The purified aminoacylase SgAA was biochemically characterized, focusing on its hydrolytic activity to determine temperature- and pH optima and stabilities. The aminoacylase could hydrolyze various acetyl amino acids at the Nα -position with a broad specificity regarding the sidechain. Substrates with longer acyl chains, like lauroyl amino acids, were hydrolyzed to a lesser extent. Purified aminoacylase SgELA specific for the hydrolysis of Nε -acetyl-l-lysine was unstable and lost its enzymatic activity upon storage for a longer period but could initially be characterized. The pH optimum of SgELA was pH 8.0. While synthesis of acyl amino acids was not observed with SgELA, SgAA catalyzed the synthesis of lauroyl-methionine.

Agarase overproduction in Streptomyces lividans

Project description:The gene dagA encoding agarase in Streptomyces coelicolor was cloned in the multicopy plasmid pIJ486 generating plasmid pAGAs5. Plasmid pAGAs5 and pIJ486 were propagated in S. lividans TK21 to obtain S. lividans TK21(pAGAs5) and its isogenic strain S. lividans TK21(pIJ486). Transcriptional profiling of the bacterium that overproduces agarase mainly resulted in the downregulation of the genes involved in the biogenesis and function of ribosomes, together with the downregulation of the genes involved in nitrogen, aminoacids, purine/pyrimidine and central carbon metabolism as well as ABC transporters, redox processes and fatty acids biosynthesis. The number of genes upregulated in the agarase overproducer strain is lower than in the downregulated ones. Almost 50% of the dowregulated genes have been described as forming part of the stringent response in streptomycetes. Therefore, the overproduction of agarase may lead to a condition of nutrient depletion that triggers the stringent response.
