Ultrahigh-Throughput Screening of High-β-Xylosidase-Producing Penicillium piceum and Investigation of the Novel β-Xylosidase Characteristics.

ABSTRACT: A droplet-based microfluidic ultrahigh-throughput screening technology has been developed for the selection of high-β-xylosidase-producing Penicillium piceum W6 from the atmospheric and room-temperature plasma-mutated library of P. piceum. β-xylosidase hyperproducers filamentous fungi, P. piceum W6, exhibited an increase in β-xylosidase activity by 7.1-fold. A novel β-D-xylosidase was purified from the extracellular proteins of P. piceum W6 and designated as PpBXL. The optimal pH and temperature of PpBXL were 4.0 and 70 °C, respectively. PpBXL had high stability an acidic pH range of 3.0-5.0 and exhibited good thermostability with a thermal denaturation half-life of 10 days at 70 °C. Moreover, PpBXL showed the bifunctional activities of α-L-arabinofuranosidase a
