Structural and molecular dynamics investigations of ligand stabilization via secondary binding site interactions in Paenibacillus xylanivorans GH11 xylanase.

ABSTRACT: Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are essential for plant biomass deconstruction. GH11 family consist of endo-β-1,4-xylanases which hydrolyze xylan, the second most abundant cell wall biopolymer after cellulose, into small bioavailable oligomers. Structural requirements for enzymatic mechanism of xylan hydrolysis is well described for GH11 members. However, over the last years, it has been discovered that some enzymes from GH11 family have a secondary binding sites (SBS), which modulate the enzymes activities, but mechanistic details of the molecular communication between the active site and SBS of the enzymes remain a conundrum. In the present work we structurally characterized GH11 xylanase from Paenibacillus xylanivorans A57 (PxXyn11B), a microorganism of agricultural importance,
