Abstract: | An extracellular, endo-??-1,4-xylanase was purified to homogeneity from the culture filtrate of the filamentous fungus Penicillium occitanis Pol6, grown on oat spelt xylan. The purified enzyme (PoXyn2) showed a single band on SDS?CPAGE with an apparent molecular weight of 30?kDa. The xylanase activity was optimal at pH?3.0 and 65?°C. The specific activity measured for oat spelt xylan was 2,368?U?mg?1. The apparent K m and V max values were 8.33?mg?ml?1 and 58.82???mol?min?1?ml?1, respectively, as measured on oat spelt xylan. Thin-layer chromatography experiments revealed that purified PoXyn2 degrades xylan in an endo-fashion releasing xylobiose as main end product. The genomic DNA and cDNA encoding this protein were cloned and sequenced. This PoXyn2 presents an open reading frame of 962?bp, not interrupted by any introns and encoding for a mature protein of 320 amino acids and 29.88?kDa. |
