Impact of Modular Architecture on Activity of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 5 Subfamily 8 Mannanases.

ABSTRACT: Glycoside hydrolase family 5 subfamily 8 (GH5_8) mannanases belong to Firmicutes, Actinomycetia, and Proteobacteria. The presence or absence of carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) present a striking difference. While various GH5_8 mannanases need a CBM for binding galactomannans, removal of the CBM did not affect activity of some, whereas it in other cases reduced the catalytic efficiency due to increased KM. Here, monomodular GH5_8 mannanases from Eubacterium siraeum (EsGH5_8) and Xanthomonas citri pv. aurantifolii (XcGH5_8) were produced and characterized to clarify if GH5_8 mannanases from Firmicutes and Proteobacteria without CBM(s) possess distinct properties. EsGH5_8 showed a remarkably high temperature optimum of 55 °C, while XcGH5_8 had an optimum at 30 °C. Both enzymes were highly active on carob galactomannan and konjac glucomannan. Notably, EsGH5_8 was equally active on both substrates, whereas XcGH5_8 preferred galactomannan. The KM values were comparable with those of catalytic domains of truncated GH5_8s, while the turn-over numbers (kcat) were in the higher end. Notably, XcGH5_8 bound to but did not degrade insoluble ivory nut mannan. The findings support the hypothesis that GH5_8 mannanases with CBMs target insoluble mannans found in plant cell walls and seeds, while monomodular GH5_8 members have soluble mannans and mannooligosaccharides as primary substrates.

Project description:beta-1,4-Mannanases (mannanases), which hydrolyse mannans and glucomannans, are located in glycoside hydrolase families (GHs) 5 and 26. To investigate whether there are fundamental differences in the molecular architecture and biochemical properties of GH5 and GH26 mannanases, four genes encoding these enzymes were isolated from Cellvibrio japonicus and the encoded glycoside hydrolases were characterized. The four genes, man5A, man5B, man5C and man26B, encode the mannanases Man5A, Man5B, Man5C and Man26B, respectively. Man26B consists of an N-terminal signal peptide linked via an extended serine-rich region to a GH26 catalytic domain. Man5A, Man5B and Man5C contain GH5 catalytic domains and non-catalytic carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) belonging to families 2a, 5 and 10; Man5C in addition contains a module defined as X4 of unknown function. The family 10 and 2a CBMs bound to crystalline cellulose and ivory nut crystalline mannan, displaying very similar properties to the corresponding family 10 and 2a CBMs from Cellvibrio cellulases and xylanases. CBM5 bound weakly to these crystalline polysaccharides. The catalytic domains of Man5A, Man5B and Man26B hydrolysed galactomannan and glucomannan, but displayed no activity against crystalline mannan or cellulosic substrates. Although Man5C was less active against glucomannan and galactomannan than the other mannanases, it did attack crystalline ivory nut mannan. All the enzymes exhibited classic endo-activity producing a mixture of oligosaccharides during the initial phase of the reaction, although their mode of action against manno-oligosaccharides and glucomannan indicated differences in the topology of the respective substrate-binding sites. This report points to a different role for GH5 and GH26 mannanases from C. japonicus. We propose that as the GH5 enzymes contain CBMs that bind crystalline polysaccharides, these enzymes are likely to target mannans that are integral to the plant cell wall, while GH26 mannanases, which lack CBMs and rapidly release mannose from polysaccharides and oligosaccharides, target the storage polysaccharide galactomannan and manno-oligosaccharides.

Project description:As classified by the Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZy) database, enzymes in glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 10 (GH10) are all monospecific or bifunctional xylanases (except a tomatinase), and no endo-β-1,4-glucanase has been reported in the family. Here, we identified Arcticibacterium luteifluviistationis carboxymethyl cellulase (AlCMCase) as a GH10 endo-β-1,4-glucanase. AlCMCase originated from an Arctic marine bacterium, Arcticibacterium luteifluviistationis SM1504T It shows low identity (<35%) with other GH10 xylanases. The gene encoding AlCMCase was overexpressed in Escherichia coli Biochemical characterization showed that recombinant AlCMCase is a cold-adapted and salt-tolerant enzyme. AlCMCase hydrolyzes cello- and xylo-configured substrates via an endoaction mode. However, in comparison to its significant cellulase activity, the xylanase activity of AlCMCase is negligible. Correspondingly, AlCMCase has remarkable binding capacity for cello-oligosaccharides but no obvious binding capacity for xylo-oligosaccharides. AlCMCase and its homologs are grouped into a branch separate from other GH10 xylanases in a phylogenetic tree, and two homologs also displayed the same substrate specificity as AlCMCase. These results suggest that AlCMCase and its homologs form a novel subfamily of GH10 enzymes that have robust endo-β-1,4-glucanase activity. In addition, given the cold-adapted and salt-tolerant characters of AlCMCase, it may be a candidate biocatalyst under certain industrial conditions, such as low temperature or high salinity.IMPORTANCE Cellulase and xylanase have been widely used in the textile, pulp and paper, animal feed, and food-processing industries. Exploring novel cellulases and xylanases for biocatalysts continues to be a hot issue. Enzymes derived from the polar seas might have novel hydrolysis patterns, substrate specificities, or extremophilic properties that have great potential for both fundamental research and industrial applications. Here, we identified a novel cold-adapted and salt-tolerant endo-β-1,4-glucanase, AlCMCase, from an Arctic marine bacterium. It may be useful in certain industrial processes, such as under low temperature or high salinity. Moreover, AlCMCase is a bifunctional representative of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 10 that preferentially hydrolyzes β-1,4-glucans. With its homologs, it represents a new subfamily in this family. Thus, this study sheds new light on the substrate specificity of GH10.

Project description:Xylanases play a crucial role in the degradation of xylan in both terrestrial and marine environments. The endoxylanase XynB from the marine bacterium Glaciecola mesophila KMM 241 is a modular enzyme comprising a long N-terminal domain (NTD) (E44 to T562) with xylan-binding ability and a catalytic domain (CD) (T563 to E912) of glycoside hydrolase family 8 (GH8). In this study, the long NTD is confirmed to contain three different functional regions, which are NTD1 (E44 to D136), NTD2 (Y137 to A193), and NTD3 (L194 to T562). NTD1, mainly composed of eight β-strands, functions as a new type of carbohydrate-binding module (CBM), which has xylan-binding ability but no sequence similarity to any known CBM. NTD2, mainly forming two α-helices, contains one of the α-helices of the catalytic domain's (α/α)6 barrel and therefore is essential for the activity of XynB, although it is far away from the catalytic domain in sequence. NTD3, next to the catalytic domain in sequence, is shown to be helpful in maintaining the thermostability of XynB. Thus, XynB represents a kind of xylanase with a new domain architecture. There are four other predicted glycoside hydrolase sequences with the same domain architecture and high sequence identity (≥80%) with XynB, all of which are from marine bacteria. Phylogenetic analysis shows that XynB and these homologs form a new group in GH8, representing a new class of marine bacterial xylanases. Our results shed light on xylanases, especially marine xylanases.IMPORTANCE Xylanases play a crucial role in natural xylan degradation and have been extensively used in industries such as food processing, animal feed, and kraft pulp biobleaching. Some marine bacteria have been found to secrete xylanases. Characterization of novel xylanases from marine bacteria has significance for both the clarification of xylan degradation mechanisms in the sea and the development of new enzymes for industrial application. With G. mesophila XynB as a representative, this study reveals a new group of the GH8 xylanases from marine bacteria, which have a distinct domain architecture and contain a novel carbohydrate-binding module. Thus, this study offers new knowledge on marine xylanases.
