Biochemical characterization and identification of catalytic residues in α‐glucuronidase from Bacillus stearothermophilus T‐6

Abstract: a-d-Glucuronidases cleave the a-1,2-glycosidic bond of the 4-O-methyl-d-glucuronic acid side chain of xylan, as a part of an array of xylan hydrolyzing enzymes. The a-dglucuronidase from Bacillus stearothermophilus T-6 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli using the T7 polymerase expression system. The purification procedure included two steps, heat treatment and gel filtration chromatography, and provided over 0.3 g of pure enzyme from 1 L of overnight culture. Based on gel filtration, the native protein is c… Show more

“…The polysaccharides are initially cleaved by xylanases into substituted xylooligosaccharides; enzymes associated with the bacterial surface then remove the side chains of these oligomers, and the liberated sugars, together with the xylooligosaccharides, are preferentially metabolized by the bacterium. We further suggest that the proposed role for P. cellulosa GlcA67A can be extended to other prokaryotic ␣-glucuronidases which have an intracellular location and appear to act on 4-O-methyl-D-glucuronoxylooligosaccharides but not on 4-O-methyl-D-glucuronoxylan (21,26).…”

“…Most of them have been ranked as hydrolase, which degrade side chains of xylan containing -1,2 glucuronyl linkages. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] For instance, intracellular -glucuronidase from A. niger easily hydrolyzed Me-GA-X n ( Table 3).…”

“…1,2,[6][7][8] It is known that -glucuronidases from bacteria and snail are composed of two subunits (Table 2). [3][4][5]9,11) Effects of pH, temperature, and chemicals As shown in Fig. 2, the enzyme was stable in a pH range of 2.0-4.0 at 30 C, and the optimum pH was pH 3.0-3.5.…”
