The production and location of xylanolytic enzymes in alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. K-1, isolated from the wastewater treatment plant of the pulp and paper industry, was studied. When grown in alkaline xylan medium, the bacteria produced xylanolytic enzymes such as xylanase, $\beta$-xylosidase, arabinofuranosidase, and acetyl esterase. Two types of xylanases (23 and 45 kDa) were found to be extracellular, but another type of xylanase (35 and/or 40 kDa) was detected as pellet-bound that was eluted with 2% triethylamine from the residual xylan of the culture. The xylanases were different in their molecular weight and xylan-binding ability. Arabinofuranosidase and $\beta$-xylosidase were found to be intracellular and extracellular, respectively, and acetyl esterase was found to be extracellular. The extracellular xylanolytic enzymes effectively hydrolyzed insoluble xylan, lignocellulosic materials, and xylans in kraft pulps.

목재 저장소의 토양에서 분리된 호열성 세균인 Paenibacillus sp. DG-22로부터 xylanase를 생산하기 위한 배양조건을 최적화시키기 위해 연구를 수행하였다. Xylanase생산은 세포의 생장과 연관된 양상을 나타내었다. Xylanase 활성은 배양상청액에서만 발견된 반면 $\beta-xylosidase$활성은 주로 세포와 결합되어 있었다. Xylanase활성의 형성은 자일란에 의해 유도되었고 포도당과 자일로스에 의해서 억제되었다. 여러 상업적 자일란을 이용하여 xylanase의 생산양상을 조사한 결과 0.1-0.5%의 birchwood xylan에서 가장 높은 생산율을 나타내었다. 조사된 여러 질소 원들 중 효모추출물이 xylanase생산을 위하여 최적이었다. xylanase의 활성은 $Co^{2+},\; Cu^{2+},\; Fe^{3+},\; Hg^{2+}\;$ 와$\; Mn^{2+}$ 이온들에 의하여 억제된 반면 $Ca^{2+},\; Mg^{2+},\; Ni^{2+},\; Zn^{2+}$ 이온들과 DTT에 의해서는 촉진되었다. 수은은 5 mM의 농도에서 xylanase 활성을 완전히 파괴하였다. 자일란 가수분해의 주된 산물은 자일로바이오스, 자일로트라이오스 그리고 자일로 올리고당이었고 이것은 이 효소가 endoxylanase라는 것을 나타낸다.

The endo-1,4-${\beta}$-xylanase was extracted and purified from the extracellular xylanolytic systems of Trichoderma viride. The crude enzyme was chromatographed with ion-exchange reins of DEAE Sepharose CL-6B, Sepharose, S-Sepharose CL-6B and the resulting xylanase was turned out to be a single protein as 20KD hy SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The xylooligomers were obtained from xylan by incubation with the purified xylanase up to 50%. The ${\beta}$-xylosidase lost its activity completely by incubation of crude enzyme for 24hr with buffer solution of pH 2.8 at $27^{\circ}C$. And also, the xylooligomers were obtained from xylan as a main product by incubation with the crude enzyme treated with acidic buffer.

In our previous work in transcriptional regulation of sugar, expression of genes encoding putative glycosyl hydrolases in Arabidopsis was induced by sugar starvation. They were annotated as b-galactosidase (At5g56870), ${\beta}-xylosidase$ (At5g49360) and ${\beta}-glucosidase$ (At3g60140), which belong to glycosyl hydrolase family that has a catalytic domain of polysaccharides. From the primary structure of deduced amino acid sequence, they were predicted to localize to cell wall. Further investigation of these cell wall hydrolases implicated that cell wall polysaccharides provide metabolizable sugars to nutrient allocation under sugar starvation.

소나무, 낙엽송, 리기다소나무, 잣나무 등 국내산 침엽수 목분을 기질로 진탕배양했을 때 갈색부후균인 Fomitopsis palustris로부터 분비된 당 분해성 균체 외 효소는 Endoglucanase (EG), $\beta$-glucosidase (BGL) 및 $\beta$-1,4-xylosidase (BXL)와 함께 결정형 셀룰로오스를 분해하는 Cellobiohydrolase (CBH)도 활성을 갖은 것으로 나타났다. 4주간 배양에서 변재는 심재에 비해 큰 효소활성을 나타냈으나, 배양기간을 증가시킴으로써 효소활성이 커지는 것으로 밝혀져 효소에 의한 목질바이오매스 분해의 경우 심변재 혼합처리도 가능할 수 있음이 시사되었다. 그리고, 균체 의 단백질을 SDS-PAGE로 분석한 결과, 대부분의 수종에서 나타나는 효소의 단백질 패턴은 거의 유사한 것으로 나타나 효소를 이용한 목질계 바이오매스 분해의 경구 수종별 혼합처리도 가능함이 시사되었다. F. palustris에 의해 분해된 목분(60 mesh 통과) 셀룰로오스의 결정화도 감소율은 4주 배양에서 약 4.2~20.4%, 8주 배양에서 약 12.9~28.9% 수준으로 나타났다.

세 종류의 이탄습지 (bog, fen, swamp)에서 탄수유기물 분해에 관여하는 일군의 체외 효소 활성도. 미량 기체 ($CO_2$와 $N_2O$), DOC 변화 등을 12개월에 걸쳐 측정하였다 ${\beta}-glucosidase$, cellobiohydrolase, ${\beta}-xylosidase$, N-acetylglucosaminidase 등이 각각 $0.008-0.066\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, $0.003-0.021\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, $0.003-0.016\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, $0.004-0.047\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$ 범위의 활성도를 보였다. 전반적으로 swamp에서의 활성도가 가장 높았고, fen과 bog의 순서로 나타났다. 세 종류 습지의 자료를 모두 합쳤을 때, 효소의 활성도는 미량 기체의 발생량이나 가용한 탄소의 양과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 또한, 4가지 효소 활성도의 평균값은 미량기체와 가용한 탄소량의 변화에 있어서 20-40% 정도의 변이를 설명할 수 있었다. 이 결과로 비추어, 유기탄소 무기화에 관여하는 효소는 북구 이탄습지에서 미량기체 발생과 DOC 동태에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 사료된다.

This study investigated on enzyme production in the digestive organs of the native termite (Reticulitermes speratus) in Milyang, Korea. Four types of major cellulases [EG (endo-1,4-${\beta}$-glucanase), BGL (${\beta}$-glucosidase), CBH (cellobiohydrolase) and BXL (${\beta}$-1,4-xylosidase)] were present in the digestive organs of the termite. The strong enzyme activity for BGL was found from the native termite, and also shown that the enzyme was distributed in the salivary gland, foregut, and hindgut. BXL, which breaks down hemicellulose near the amorphous region, was detected mainly from salivary gland, foregut, and midgut. However, CBH was distributed mainly in the hindgut. Meanwhile, EG which degrades cellulose, was found mainly in the hindgut and salivary glands. These facts indicate that celluases production patterns are differ from different sites compare to the same species found in Japan, suggesting that enzyme production in the digestive organs of termites is changed according to their habitats.

Various microorganisms were isolated from the surface waters and sediments of eutrophic lakes and reservoirs in Korea to enable an investigation of bacteria having algal lytic activities against Anabaena flos-aquae when water blooming occurs and to study enzyme profiles of algal lytic bacteria. Two bacterial strains, AFK-07 and AFK-13, were cultured, characterized and identified as Acinetobacter johnsonii and Sinorhizobium sp., respectively. The A. johnsonii AFK-07 exhibited a high level of degradatory activities against A. flos-aquae, and produced alginase, caseinase, lipase, fucodian hydrolase, and laminarinase. Moreover, many kinds of glycosidase, such as ${\beta}-galactosidase,\;{\beta}-glucosidase,\;{\beta}-glucosaminidase,\;and\; {\beta}-xylosidase$, which hydrolyzed ${\beta}-O-glycosidic$ bonds, were found in cell-free extracts of A. johnsonii AFK-07. Other glycosidases such as ${\alpha}-galactosidase,\;{\alpha}-N-Ac-galactosidase,\;{\alpha}-mannosidase,\; and\;{\alpha}-L-fucosidase$, which cleave ${\alpha}-O-glycosidic$ bonds, were not identified in AFK-07. In the Sinorhizobium sp. AFK-13, the enzymes alginase, amylase, proteinase (caseinase and gelatinase), carboxymethyl-cellulase (CMCase), laminarinase, and lipase were notable. No glycosidase was produced in the AFK-13 strain. Therefore, the enzyme system of A. johnsonii AFK-07 had a more complex mechanism in place to degrade the cyanobacteria cell walls than did the enzyme system of Sinorhizobium sp. AFK-13. The polysaccharides or the peptidoglycans of A. flos-aquae may be hydrolyzed and metabolized to a range of easily utilized monosaccharides or other low molecular weight organic substances by strain AFK-07 of. A. johnsonii, while the products of polysaccharide degradation or peptidoglycans were more likely to be utilized by Sinorhizobium sp. AFK-13. These bacterial interactions may offer an alternative effective approach to controlling the water choking effects of summer blooms affecting our lakes and reservoirs.

Two α-ʟ-arabinofuranosidases (BfdABF1 and BfdABF3) and a β-ᴅ-xylosidase (BfdXYL2) genes were cloned from Bifidobacterium dentium ATCC 27679, and functionally expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3). BfdABF1 showed the highest activity in 50 mM sodium acetate buffer at pH 5.0 and 25℃. This exo-enzyme could hydrolyze p-nitrophenyl arabinofuranoside, arabino-oligosaccharides (AOS), arabinoxylo-oligosaccharides (AXOS) such as 3²-α-ʟ-arabinofuranosyl-xylobiose (A³X), and 2³-α-ʟ-arabinofuranosyl-xylotriose (A²XX), whereas hardly hydrolyzed polymeric substrates such as debranched arabinan and arabinoxylans. BfdABF1 is a typical exo-ABF with the higher specific activity on the oligomeric substrates than the polymers. It prefers to α-(1,2)-ʟ-arabinofuranosidic linkages compared to α-(1,3)-linkages. Especially, BfdABF1 could slowly hydrolyze 2³,3³-di-α-ʟ-arabinofuranosyl-xylotriose (A²⁺³XX). Meanwhile, BfdABF3 showed the highest activity in sodium acetate at pH 6.0 and 50℃, and it has the exclusively high activities on AXOS such as A³X and A²XX. BfdABF3 mainly catalyzes the removal of ʟ-arabinose side chains from various AXOS. BfdXYL2 exhibited the highest activity in sodium citrate at pH 5.0 and 55℃, and it specifically hydrolyzed p-nitrophenyl xylopyranoside and xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS). Also, BfdXYL2 could slowly hydrolyze AOS and AXOS such as A³X. Based on the detailed hydrolytic modes of action of three exo-hydrolases (BfdABF1, BfdABF3, and BfdXYL2) from Bf. dentium, their probable roles in the hemiceullose-utilization system of Bf. dentium are proposed in the present study. These intracellular exo-hydrolases can synergistically produce ʟ-arabinose and ᴅ-xylose from various AOS, XOS, and AXOS.
