${\beta}$-Xylosidase was purified from the recombinant Escherichia coli carrying the Bacillus sp. KK-1 ${\beta}$-xylosidase gene (xylB). The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 62 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. However, the apparent molecular mass of the ${\beta}$-xylosidase was 140 kDa, indicating that the native ${\beta}$-xylosidase has an oligomeric structure composed of two identical subunits. The isoelectric point was determined to be pH 5.5. The enzyme was highly active on p-nitrophenyl-$\beta$-D-xylopyranoside but it barely hydrolyzed xylan substrates, and did not exhibit activity towards carboxymethylcellulose and p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D- glucopyranoside. The enzyme had a pH optimum for its activity at pH 6.5 and a temperature optimum at $40^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity was completely inhibited by the presence of $Hg^{++}$, and also markedly inhibited by D-xylose and D-glucose.

Bacillus stearothermophilus No.236 xylB 유전자가 삽입된 재조합 플라스미드 pKMG12를 가지고 있는 E. coli HB101 균주를 이용하여 B. stearothermophilus $\beta$-xylosidase B을 생산, 정제하고 효소의 일반특성을 조사하였다. Ammonuim sulfate 분획, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B 이온 교환 크로마토그래피, Sephacryl S-200 및 Superdex 200HR 젤 크로마토그래피의 과정을 거쳐 정제하였으며 정제된 효소는 SDS-PAGE 및 zymogram 실험을 통해 $\beta$-xylosidase B의 단백질임을 확인하였다. 정제 $\beta$-xylosidase B는 반응액의 수소이온 농도와 온도에 매우 민감하며 최적 활성 pH 및 온도는 각각 pH 6.5와 $50^{\circ}C$로 결정되었다. $\beta$-Xylosidase 활성은 1 mM $Mn^{2+}$ 첨가에 의해 약 35% 활성화됨을 보였으나 $Ag^{+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ 및 $Hg^{2+}$ 등의 중금속이온의 존재하에서는 거의 완전한 저해를 나타내었다. 또한 본 효소는 비록 높지는 않으나 $\alpha$-arabinofuranosidase 활성도 가지고 있어 B. stearothermophilus No 236의 $\beta$-xylosidase A 효소 보다 최소한 arabinoxylan의 분해에 있어서 더 우수한 효소로 판단되며 o-nitrophenyl-$\beta$-D-xylopyranoside 기질에 대한 $K_{m}$ 값과 $V_{max}$ 값은 각각 6.43 mM과 $1.45\mu$mole/min 로 계산되었다. 한편, $\beta$-xylosidase B 분자량은 gel 여과법으로는 약 160 kDa, 그리고 SDS-PAGE에 의해서는 약 54 kDa로 측정되어 본 효소는 trimer의 구조를 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

토양 분리균인 B.stearothermophilus chromosome의 유전자 은행으로부터 E.coli HB101 균주에 $\beta$-D-xylosidase 생산능력을 갖게하는 5.4Kb와 6.4Kb의 두 DNA 절편을 분리, pBR322에 크로닝하여 각각 pMG01과 pMG02의 재조합 플라스미드를 얻었다. 상기 두 B.stearothermophilus DNA 절편의 restriction map을 작성하고 이것을 기초로 하여 $\beta$-D-xylosidase 유전자인자의 위치를 확인함과 동시에 pUC18에 subcloning하여 각각 2.2kb와 1.0kb의 DNA 단편이 삽입된 $\beta$-D-xylosidase 양성의 pMG1와 pMG2를 분리하였다.

A gene coding for ${\beta}$-xylosidase from thermophilic xylanolytic Bacillus sp. KK-1 was cloned into Escherichia coli using plasmid pBR322. Recombinant plasmid DNAs were isloated from E. coli clones which were capable of hydrolyzing 4-methylumbelliferyl-${\beta}$-D xylopyranoside. Restriction analysis showed the DNAs to share a common insert DNA. Xylo-oligosaccharides, including xylotriose, xylotetraose, xylopentaose, and xylobiose were hydrolyzed to form xylose as an end product by cell-free extracts of the E. coli clones, confirming that the cloned gene from strain KK-1 is ${\beta}$-xylosidase gene. The ${\beta}$-xylosidase gene of strain KK-1 designated as xylB was completely sequenced. The xylB gene consisted of an open reading frame of 1,602 nucleotides encoding a polypeptide of 533 amino acid residues, and a TGA stop codon. The 3' flanking region contained one stem-loop structure which may be involved in transcriptional termination. The deduced amino acid sequence of the KK-1 ${\beta}$-xylosidase was highly homologous to the ${\beta}$-xylosidases of Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus pumilus, but it showed no similarity to a thermostable ${\beta}$-xylosidase from Bacillus stearothermophilus.

${\beta}$-D-Xylosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.37) from Bifidobacterium breve K-110, which hydrolyzes ginsenoside Ra1 to ginsenoside Rb2, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The ($His_6$)-tagged recombinant enzyme, designated as XlyBK-110, was efficiently purified using $Ni^{2+}$-affinity chromatography (109.9-fold, 84% yield). The molecular mass of XylBK-100 was found to be 55.7 kDa by SDS-PAGE. Its sequence revealed a 1,347 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding a protein containing 448 amino acids, which showed 82% identity (DNA) to the previously reported glycosyl hydrolase family 30 of Bifidobacterium adolescentis ATCC 15703. The $K_m$ and $V_{max}$ values toward p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranoside (pNPX) were 1.45mM and 10.75 ${\mu}mol/min/mg$, respectively. This enzyme had pH and temperature optima at 6.0 and $45^{\circ}C$, respectively. XylBK-110 acted to the greatest extent on xyloglucosyl kakkalide, followed by pNPX and ginsenoside Ra1, but did not act on p-nitrophenyl-${\alpha}$-L-arabinofuranoside, p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, or p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-fucopyranoside. In conclusion, this is the first report on the cloning and expression of ${\beta}$-D-xylosidase-hydrolyzing ginsenoside Ra1 and kakkalide from human intestinal microflora.

세균인 Paenibacillus sp. DG-22의 유전체 DNA library가 제조되었으며, ${\beta}-xylosidase-$양성 클론이 형광기질인 $4-methylumbelliferyl-{\beta}-D-xylopyranoside$ $({\beta}MUX)$를 사용하여 확인되었다. 이 클론으로부터 재조합 플라스미드가 분리되었고 삽입된 4.3-kb 크기 DNA의 염기서열이 결정되었다. ${beta}-xylosidase$ 유전자는 분자량이 78.710 dal-ton이고 pI가 5.0인 701개의 아미노산을 암호화하는 2,106 염기쌍의 열린해독틀(ORF)로 구성되어있었다. xylA 유전자산물의 추론된 아미노산 서열은 과(family) 52에 속하는 클리코실 가수분해효소로 분류된 ${beta}-xylosidase$들과 상당한 유사성을 가지고 있었다. 이 xylA 유전자에 6개의 히스티딘-꼬리표를 붙이기 위해 pQE60 발현벡터에 다시 클로닝하였다. 재조합 ${beta}-xylosidase$ $(XylA-H_6)$가 열처리와 고정화금속친화성 크로마토그래피(IMAC)에 의해 순수하게 정제되었다. $XylA-H_6$ 효소의 최적 pH와 온도는 각각 pH 5.5-6.0과 $60^{\circ}C$이었다.
