Popis: | Escherichia coli-expressed a hybrid xylanase, Btx, encoded by a designed hybrid xylanase gene btx was purified. The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated to be 22 kDa. The Km and kcat values for Btx were 1.9 mg/ml and 140 s−1, respectively. It hydrolyzed xylan principally to xylobiose and xylotriose, and was functionally similar to family 11 xylanases. As some differences were found in the hydrolytic products between birchwood xylan and wheat bran insoluble xylan, the xylan binding domains in xylanase Btx must have different effects on soluble and insoluble xylan. |
