isolation and characterization of xylanase producing strain of bacillus cereus from soil
نویسندگان
چکیده
background and objectives: research on xylanase has markedly increased due to its potential applications in pulping and bleaching processes using cellulose free preparations, textile processes, the enzymatic saccharification of lignocellulosic materials and waste treatment. the present study was aimed at isolation and characterization of xylan degrading strain of bacillus cereus from soil for production of xylanase. materials and methods: twelve isolates were obtained from soil samples of different areas in the rajshahi university campus and studied for detection of xylanase activity. one of the strains was identified as bacillus cereus on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of the 16s rrna gene which produces xylanase extracellularly. we purified xylanase to homogeneity by a combination of ammonium-sulphate precipitation, deae-sepharose, phenyl-5pw and hydroxyapatite column chromatography using culture supernatant. results: the sds-page gave a single band at 32 kda. the optimum temperature and ph of the purified enzyme was 40oc and 6.0, respectively. the xylanase hydrolyzed oat spelt xylan, birch wood xylan and beech wood xylan efficiently but showed no activity towards cellulose, cm-cellulose and avicell ph 101. conclusion: thus it was a true and neutral xylanase. the isolation of xylanase from bacillus cereus is rare.

Microbial enzymes are often more useful than enzymes derived from plants or animals because of are more stable than their corresponding plant and animal enzymes and their production is more convenient and safer (Wiseman, 1987). Only about 2% of the world’s microorganisms have been tested as enzyme sources. Microbial proteases are degradative enzymes, which catalyze the total hydrolysis of prote...

Isolated Bacillus strains BA1 and BA2 were a good source of amylase as they also showed high amylolytic activity. Both showed a clear zone on starch agar plate of 4.0 & 4.2mm in diameter respectively. The strain BA1 and BA2 produce amount of amylolytic enzyme 0.908μ/ml and 0.802μ/ml after the incubation of 24 hours at 37±2 0 C respectively. As the time of incubation increase the amylolytic acti...
