Xylan in hemicellulose has been reported as one of the reasons of the yellowing of chemical pulp and paper. But little relevant information is available in literature. In this study, we examined into the influence that glucuronoxylan or glucomannan and metallic ion($Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Fe^{3+},\;Mn^{2+}$) residued in pulp get each or when mixed at yellowing. Filter paper was treated with each metallic ion, glucuronoxylan and the mixture of glucuronoxylan and metal ions, and brightness and CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ was measured after accelerated aging. As the results of measurements, the filter paper processed by 10% glucuronoxylan was dropped $2{\sim}3%$ on the brightness after accelerated aging for 24 hours. Also, the filter paper treated with glucuronoxylan and $Fe^{2+}$ was dropped 7% on the brightness.

Generally, aging of paper is evaluated by folding endurance and degree of yellowing. It was known as that lignin, hemicellulose and metallic ion affect yellowing of mechanical or chemical pulps. Among these elements, especially, the study of hemicellulose that affect at yellowing of pulp is insufficient. In this study, we examined into the influence that glucuronoxylan or glucomannan and metallic ion($Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Fe^{3+},Mn^{2+}$) residued in pulp get each or when mixed at yellowing. Filter paper was treated with each metallic ion, glucuronoxylan and the mixture of glucuronoxylan and metal ions, and brightness and CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ was measured after accelerated aging. As the results of measurements, the filter paper processed by 10% glucuronoxylan was dropped 2-3% on the brightness after accelerated aging for 24 hours. Also, the filter paper treated with glucuronoxylan and $Fe^{2+}$ was dropped 7% on the brightness.

Lignocellulosic biomass represents a potentially large resource to supply the world's fuel and chemical feedstocks. Enzymatic bioconversion of this substrate offers a reliable strategy for accessing this material under mild reaction conditions. Owing to the complex nature of lignocellulose, many different enzymatic activities are required to function in concert to perform efficient transformation. In nature, large multienzyme complexes are known to effectively hydrolyze lignocellulose into constituent monomeric sugars. We created artificial complexes of enzymes, called rosettazymes, in order to hydrolyze glucuronoxylan, a common lignocellulose component, into its cognate sugar ${\small{D}}$-xylose and then further convert the ${\small{D}}$-xylose into ${\small{D}}$-xylonic acid, a Department of Energy top-30 platform chemical. Four different types of enzymes (endoxylanase, ${\alpha}$-glucuronidase, ${\beta}$-xylosidase, and xylose dehydrogenase) were incorporated into the artificial complexes. We demonstrated that tethering our enzymes in a complex resulted in significantly more activity (up to 71%) than the same amount of enzymes free in solution. We also determined that varying the enzyme composition affected the level of complex-related activity enhancement as well as overall yield.

Xylan의 효소적 가수분해는 고부가가치 기능성 물질 또는 바이오에너지 생산을 위한 발효성 당을 얻는 가장 유용한 방법 중 하나이다. endo-${\beta}$-Xylanase는 xylan 주사슬 내부의 ${\beta}$-1,4-결합을 가수분해하여 xylobiose, xylotriose를 포함한 다양한 XOS를 생산하는 핵심 효소이다. 이들 효소 중에서 glucuronoxylanase GH30은 methylglucuronic acid가 측쇄에 수식된 xylan에 특이적으로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 Paenibacillus amylolyticus KCTC 3005에서 유래한 2종의 xylan 가수분해효소(PaXN_10과 PaGuXN_30) 유전자를 클로닝하고, Escherichia coli에서 각각 발현시켰다. PaXN_10 (38.7 kDa)은 ${\beta}$-xylanase GH10 계열, PaGuXN_30 (58.5 kDa)은 glucuronoxylanase GH30에 해당하는 효소이며, $50^{\circ}C$와 pH 7.0에서 최대 활성을 나타내었다. 가수분해 특성 연구를 통해 P. amylolyticus가 목질계 glucuronoxylan을 분해하는 효소 시스템을 제안하였다. 세포 외로 분비되는 PaGuXN_30은 glucuroxylan을 가수분해하여 methylglucuronic acid 측쇄를 가지는 다양한 aldouronic acid mixtures를 생성하며, 이러한 분해산물은 세포 내로 이동하여 PaXN_GH10에 의해 xylose, xylobiose와 같은 저분자 XOS로 분해되어 세포 내 대사경로에 이용될 수 있다. 또한 이들 효소의 가수분해특성을 이용하여 다양한 탄수화물 소재 생산이 가능할 것으로 기대한다.
