BaABF (GH43) produced twice the yield of arabinose residues from the heteroxylan compared to AnABF (GH51) under the same reaction conditions. Two endo-xylanases (of GH10 and 11) also showed differential hydrolytic activities on the Xylp chain, with the GH10 XYN-ATM double the amount of reducing sugar yield (as xylose equivalent) than using the GH11 XYN-M3. When the ABF and XYN were combined in optimial ratios, a synergistic increase of 73.8% in arabinose yield was observed.展开更多

The enzyme was purified in active form, and consisted of 500 amino acid residues, corresponding to 55 kD based on SDS-PAGE. The affinity-purified protein was characterized using arabinofuranosyl xylooligosaccharides (AXOS) as substrates. The pH effect was investigated showing an optimum at pH 5.5. XaARF catalyzed the cleavage of arabinose at C3 of the xylopyranosyl unit efficiently if the arabinofuranosyl substitution was at the terminal compared to internal xylose units. The enzyme was able to act on di-substituted xylopyranosyl units with the first cleavage at C3 followed by C2 linkages.展开更多
