Cloning, overexpression in Escherichia coli, and characterization of a thermostable fungal acetylxylan esterase from Talaromyces emersonii.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The gene encoding an acetylxylan esterase (AXE1) from the thermophilic ascomycete Talaromyces emersonii was cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli, and characterized. This form of AXE1, rTeAXE1, exhibits increased thermostability and activity at a higher temperature than other known fungal acetyl esterases, thus having huge potential application in biomass bioconversion to high value chemicals or biofuels.

Expression and characterization of a thermostable acetylxylan esterase from Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. tengcongensis involved in the degradation of insoluble cellulose acetate.
A thermostable acetylxylan esterase gene, TTE0866, which catalyzes the deacetylation of cellulose acetate, was cloned from the genome of Caldanaerobacter subterraneus subsp. tengcongensis. The pH and temperature optima were 8.0 and 60 °C. The esterase was inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride. A mixture of the esterase and cellulolytic enzymes efficiently degraded insoluble cellulose aceta...

متن کاملHighly thermostable fungal cellobiohydrolase I (Cel7A) engineered using predictive methods.
Building on our previous efforts to generate thermostable chimeric fungal cellobiohydrolase I (CBH I, also known as Cel7A) cellulases by structure-guided recombination, we used FoldX and a 'consensus' sequence approach to identify individual mutations present in the five homologous parent CBH I enzymes which further stabilize the chimeras. Using the FoldX force field, we calculated the effect o...
متن کاملConstitutive Expression of Thermobifida fusca Thermostable Acetylxylan Esterase Gene in Pichia pastoris
A gene encoding the thermostable acetylxylan esterase (AXE) in Thermobifida fusca NTU22 was amplified by PCR, sequenced and cloned into the Pichia pastoris X-33 host strain using the vector pGAPZαA, allowing constitutive expression and secretion of the protein. Recombinant expression resulted in high levels of extracellular AXE production, as high as 526 U/mL in the Hinton flask culture broth. ...
