Background Xylanase-containing enzyme cocktails are used on an industrial scale to
convert xylan into value-added products, as they hydrolyse the β-1, 4-glycosidic linkages …

A xylanase gene, xynBS27, was cloned from Streptomyces sp. S27 and consisted of 693 bp
encoding a 230-residue protein, including a putative 41-residue signal peptide. Belonging to …

Xylans are major hemicellulose components of plant cell wall which can be hydrolyzed by
xylanolytic enzymes. Three forms of endo-β-1, 4-xylanases (XynSW1, XynSW2A, and …

Xylanases produce xylooligosaccharides from xylan and have thus attracted increasing
attention for their usefulness in industrial applications. Previously, we demonstrated that the …

Xylanases are key enzymes for agricultural biomass saccharification for the production of
cellulosic ethanol. Success in enzymatic lignocellulose bioconversion is restricted by …

Abstract Xylanase (EC 3.2. 1.8) is one of the most important enzymes for the biodegradation
of xylan. Since many industrial processes utilizing xylanase are operated at elevated …

Although many xylanases have been studied, many of the characteristics of xylanases
toward branches in xylan remain unclear. In this study, the substrate specificity of a GH11 …

Purpose This study investigated the influence of inter-domain interactions on the substrate
affinity and hydrolysis product specificity of xylanase. Methods Genes encoding a GH10 …

Background The main representatives of hemicellulose are xylans, usually decorated β-1, 4-
linked d-xylose polymers, which are hydrolyzed by xylanases. The efficient utilization and …

A novel glycosyl hydrolase family 11 xylanase gene, xynMF13A, was cloned from Phoma sp.
MF13, a xylanase-producing fungus isolated from mangrove sediment. xynMF13A was …
