Structural insights into curdlan degradation via a glycoside hydrolase containing a disruptive carbohydrate-binding module.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Degradation via enzymatic processes for the production of valuable β-1,3-glucooligosaccharides (GOS) from curdlan has attracted considerable interest. CBM6E functions as a curdlan-specific β-1,3-endoglucanase, composed of a glycoside hydrolase family 128 (GH128) module and a carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) derived from family CBM6.

Results

Crystallographic analyses were conducted to comprehend the substrate specificity mechanism of CBM6E. This unveiled structures of both apo CBM6E and its GOS-complexed form. The GH128 and CBM6 modules constitute a cohesive unit, binding nine glucoside moieties within the catalytic groove in a singular helical conformation. By extending the substrate-binding groove, we engineered CBM6E variants with heightened hydrolytic activities, generating diverse GOS profiles from curdlan. Molecular docking, followed by mutation validation, unveiled the cooperative recognition of triple-helical β-1,3-glucan by the GH128 and CBM6 modules, along with the identification of a novel sugar-binding residue situated within the CBM6 module. Interestingly, supplementing the CBM6 module into curdlan gel disrupted the gel's network structure, enhancing the hydrolysis of curdlan by specific β-1,3-glucanases.

Conclusions

This study offers new insights into the recognition mechanism of glycoside hydrolases toward triple-helical β-1,3-glucans, presenting an effective method to enhance endoglucanase activity and manipulate its product profile. Furthermore, it discovered a CBM module capable of disrupting the quaternary structures of curdlan, thereby boosting the hydrolytic activity of curdlan gel when co-incubated with β-1,3-glucanases. These findings hold relevance for developing future enzyme and CBM cocktails useful in GOS production from curdlan degradation.

Project description:BackgroundEnzymatic removal of hemicellulose components such as xylan is an important factor for maintaining high glucose conversion from lignocelluloses subjected to low-severity pretreatment. Supplementation of xylanase in the cellulase mixture enhances glucose release from pretreated lignocellulose. Filamentous fungi produce multiple xylanases in their cellulase system, and some of them have modular structures consisting of a catalytic domain and a family 1 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM1). However, the role of CBM1 in xylanase in the synergistic hydrolysis of lignocellulose has not been investigated in depth.ResultsThermostable endo-β-1,4-xylanase (Xyl10A) from Talaromyces cellulolyticus, which is recognized as one of the core enzymes in the fungal cellulase system, has a modular structure consisting of a glycoside hydrolase family 10 catalytic domain and CBM1 at the C-terminus separated by a linker region. Three recombinant Xyl10A variants, that is, intact Xyl10A (Xyl10Awt), CBM1-deleted Xyl10A (Xyl10AdC), and CBM1 and linker region-deleted Xyl10A (Xyl10AdLC), were constructed and overexpressed in T. cellulolyticus. Cellulose-binding ability of Xyl10A CBM1 was demonstrated using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring. Xyl10AdC and Xyl10AdLC showed relatively high catalytic activities for soluble and insoluble xylan substrates, whereas Xyl10Awt was more effective in xylan hydrolysis of wet disc-mill treated rice straw (WDM-RS). The enzyme mixture of cellulase monocomponents and intact or mutant Xyl10A enhanced the hydrolysis of WDM-RS glucan, with the most efficient synergism found in the interactions with Xyl10Awt. The increased glucan hydrolysis yield exhibited a linear relationship with the xylan hydrolysis yield by each enzyme. This relationship revealed significant hydrolysis of WDM-RS glucan with lower supplementation of Xyl10Awt.ConclusionsOur results suggest that Xyl10A CBM1 has the following two roles in synergistic hydrolysis of lignocellulose by Xyl10A and cellulases: enhancement of lignocellulosic xylan hydrolysis by binding to cellulose, and the efficient removal of xylan obstacles that interrupt the cellulase activity (because of similar binding target of CBM1). The combination of CBM-containing cellulases and xylanases in a fugal cellulase system could contribute to reduction of the enzyme loading in the hydrolysis of pretreated lignocelluloses.
