Dissecting the essential role of N-glycosylation in catalytic performance of xanthan lyase.

ABSTRACT: Modified xanthan produced by xanthan lyase has broad application prospects in the food industry. However, the catalytic performance of xanthan lyase still needs to be improved through rational design. To address this problem, in this work, the glycosylation and its influences on the catalytic performance of a xanthan lyase (EcXly), which was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, were reported. Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry analysis revealed that the N599 site of EcXly was modified by a single N-glycan chain. Based on sequence alignment and three-dimensional structure prediction, it could be deduced that the N599 site was located in the catalytic domain of EcXly and in close proximity to the catalytic residues. After site-directed mutagenesis of N599 with
