Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to beta-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10, a coding gene and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Xylan is an important component of hemicellulose in plant cell walls and is an abundant biomass resource. However, it is difficult to be degraded and utilized in nature, resulting in a large waste of biological resources. Xylanase (EC. 3. 2. 1. 8) is a general term for a class of multifunctional enzymes that degrade xylan, and can hydrolyze xylan into reducing sugars such as oligoxylose and xylose. The action site of β-1,4-endo-xylanase is located inside the main chain of xylan. It can release xylo-oligosaccharides by degrading the glycosidic bonds inside xylan. Most of the hydrolysis products are xylobiose, and a small amount is arabinose and xylose. In fact, β-1,4-endo-xylanase is xylanase in a narrow sense.

[0003] Xylanases are abundant in nature. Many fungi, plant tissues, and bacteria can produce xylanases, which have received widespread attention in recent years. The enzymatic properties of xylanases from different microorganisms are also quite different. Most of the xylanases with good thermal stability come from actinomycetes, while most xylanases from bacteria and fungi do not have good heat resistance and have a low optimum reaction temperature. The optimum pH of most β-1,4-xylanases is 4.0-7.0, and they are most stable between pH 3.0-10.0. The optimum temperature is generally concentrated between 40.0℃-75.0℃. Among them, xylanases with an optimum pH of 5.0-8.0 are generally derived from Bacillus, while those with a relatively low optimum pH, such as xylanases from fungi such as Aspergillus niger. At the same time, xylanase is also an important industrial enzyme preparation, widely used in food processing, textiles, pulp bleaching, brewing, feed processing and other fields. However, different fields require different properties of xylanase. For example, pulp bleaching and feed processing require high temperature treatment. Food processing, brewing and feed industries require acid xylanase, while textile and pulp bleaching require alkaline xylanase. Therefore, the development of xylanases with different properties is conducive to expanding the application direction of xylanase in different industrializations, and has become a hot topic of widespread concern today.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the results showed that the purified recombinant β-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10 could maintain more than 50% of the enzyme activity at pH 2.0-10.0 for 60 min.

[0035] Example 5 Investigation of the thermal activity of β-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10 The enzymatic reaction was carried out in a buffer solution at pH 5.5 at 10-90 °C. Beech xylan was used as substrate for 10 min and the activity of the purified recombinant β-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10 was determined (see Figure 4 ).

[0036] like Figure 4 The results showed that the optimum temperature of the recombinant β-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10 was 60.0℃. The enzyme activities were 93.26%, 76.23%, 52.12% and 22.66% at 65.0℃, 70.0℃, 80.0℃ and 90.0℃, respectively, indicating that the recombinant β-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10 was a high-temperature enzyme.

The enzymatic reaction was carried out at pH = 5.5 and 37℃, and the untreated enzyme solution was used as a control. Beech xylan was used as a substrate and the reaction was carried out for 10 min. The enzyme activity of the purified recombinant β-1,4-endo-xylanase XlyAE10 was determined (see Figure 5 ).
