摘要
This study was conducted to isolate and functionally characterize a novel xylan-degrading enzyme from the microbial metagenomes of black goat rumens. A novel gene, KG42, was isolated from one of the 17 xylan-degrading metagenomic fosmid clones obtained from black goat rumens. The KG42 gene, comprising a 1107 bp open reading frame, encodes a protein composed of 368 amino acids (41 kDa) with a glycosyl hydrolase family 10 (GH10) domain, consisting of a “salad-bowl” shaped tertiary structure (a typical 8-fold α/β barrel (α/β)8) and two catalytic residues. KG42 xylanase protein has at best 40% sequence identity with other homologous GH10 xylanase proteins. The enzyme displayed its optimum activity at pH 5.0 and 50 °C. The enzyme was thermally stable at pH and temperature ranges of 5.0–10.0 and 20–60 °C, respectively. Substrate specificity and hydrolytic patterns implied that the KG42 xylanase functions as an endo-β-1,4-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8). The KG42 xylanase was also used for the preparation of bifidogenic xylan hydrolysates, demonstrating its potential applications toward preparing prebiotic xylooligosaccharides.
