RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: New characterized carbohydrate-active enzymes are needed for use as tools to discriminate complex carbohydrate structural features. Fungal glycoside hydrolase family 3 (GH3) ß-xylosidases have been shown to be useful for the structural elucidation of glucuronic acid (GlcA) and arabinofuranose (Araf) substituted oligoxylosides. A homolog of these GH3 fungal enzymes from the bacterium Segatella baroniae (basonym Prevotella bryantii), Xyl3C, has been previously characterized, but those studies did not address important functional specificity features. In an interest to utilize this enzyme for laboratory methods intended to discriminate the structure of the non-reducing terminus of substituted xylooligosaccharides, we have further characterized this GH3 xylosidase. RESULTS: In addition to verification of basic functional characteristics of this xylosidase we have determined its mode of action as it relates to non-reducing end xylose release from GlcA and Araf substituted oligoxylosides. Xyl3C cleaves xylose from the non-reducing terminus of ß-1,4-xylan until occurrence of a penultimate substituted xylose. If this substitution is O2 linked, then Xyl3C removes the non-reducing xylose to leave the substituted xylose as the new non-reducing terminus. However, if the substitution is O3 linked, Xyl3C does not hydrolyze, thus leaving the substitution one-xylose (penultimate) from the non-reducing terminus. Hence, Xyl3C enables discrimination between O2 and O3 linked substitutions on the xylose penultimate to the non-reducing end. These findings are contrasted using a homologous enzyme also from S. baroniae, Xyl3B, which is found to yield a penultimate substituted nonreducing terminus regardless of which GlcA or Araf substitution exists.

Production of value-added compounds and sustainable materials from agro-industrial residues is essential for better waste management and building of circular economy. This includes valorization of hemicellulosic fraction of plant biomass, the second most abundant biopolymer from plant cell walls, aiming to produce prebiotic oligosaccharides, widely explored in food and feed industries. In this work, we conducted biochemical and biophysical characterization of a prokaryotic two-domain R. champanellensis xylanase from glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 30 (RcXyn30A), and evaluated its applicability for XOS production from glucuronoxylan in combination with two endo-xylanases from GH10 and GH11 families and a GH11 xylobiohydrolase. RcXyn30A liberates mainly long monoglucuronylated xylooligosaccharides and is inefficient in cleaving unbranched oligosaccharides. Crystallographic structure of RcXyn30A catalytic domain was solved and refined to 1.37 Å resolution. Structural analysis of the catalytic domain releveled that its high affinity for glucuronic acid substituted xylan is due to the coordination of the substrate decoration by several hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions in the subsite -2. Furthermore, the protein has a larger ß5-α5 loop as compared to other GH30 xylanases, which might be crucial for creating an additional aglycone subsite (+3) of the catalytic site. Finally, RcXyn30A activity is synergic to that of GH11 xylobiohydrolase.

Several fungal species produce diverse carbohydrate-active enzymes useful for the xylooligosaccharide biorefinery. These enzymes can be isolated by different purification methods, but fungi usually produce other several compounds which interfere in the purification process. So, the present work has three interconnected aims: (i) compare ß-xylosidase production by Fusarium pernambucanum MUM 18.62 with other crop pathogens; (ii) optimise F. pernambucanum xylanolytic enzymes expression focusing on the pre-inoculum media composition; and (iii) design a downstream strategy to eliminate interfering substances and sequentially isolate ß-xylosidases, arabinofuranosidases and endo-xylanases from the extracellular media. F. pernambucanum showed the highest ß-xylosidase activity among all the evaluated species. It also produced endo-xylanase and arabinofuranosidase. The growth and ß-xylosidase expression were not influenced by the pre-inoculum source, contrary to endo-xylanase activity, which was higher with xylan-enriched agar. Using a sequential strategy involving ammonium sulfate precipitation of the extracellular interferences, and several chromatographic steps of the supernatant (hydrophobic chromatography, size exclusion chromatography, and anion exchange chromatography), we were able to isolate different enzyme pools: four partially purified ß-xylosidase/arabinofuranoside; FpXylEAB trifunctional GH10 endo-xylanase/ß-xylosidase/arabinofuranoside enzyme (39.8 kDa) and FpXynE GH11 endo-xylanase with molecular mass (18.0 kDa). FpXylEAB and FpXynE enzymes were highly active at pH 5-6 and 60-50 °C.

Xylan is the main component of hemicellulose. Complete hydrolysis of xylan requires synergistically acting xylanases, such as ß-d-xylosidases. Salt-tolerant ß-d-xylosidases have significant application benefits, but few reports have explored the critical amino acids affecting the salt tolerance of xylosidases. Herein, the site-directed mutation was used to demonstrate that negative electrostatic potentials generated by 19 acidic residues in the loop regions of the structural surface positively correlated with the improved salt tolerance of GH39 ß-d-xylosidase JB13GH39P28. These mutants showed reduced negative potentials on structural surfaces as well as a 13-43% decrease in stability in 3.0-30.0% (w/v) NaCl. Six key residue sites, D201, D259, D297, D377, D395, and D474, were confirmed to influence both the stability and activity of GH39 ß-d-xylosidase. The activity of the GH39 ß-d-xylosidase was found promoting by SO42- and inhibiting by NO3-. Values of Km and Kcat/Km decreased aggravatedly in 30.0% (w/v) NaCl when mutation operated on residues E179 and D182 in the loop regions of the catalytic domain. Taken together, mutation on acidic residues in loop regions from catalytic and noncatalytic domains may cause the deformation of catalytic pocket and aggregation of protein particles then decrease the stability, binding affinity, and catalytic efficiency of the ß-d-xylosidase.

Carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) family 91 is a novel module primarily associated with glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 43 enzymes. However, our current understanding of its function remains limited. PphXyl43B is a ß-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase bifunctional enzyme from physcomitrellae patens XB belonging to the GH43_11 subfamily and containing CBM91 at its C terminus. To fully elucidate the contributions of the CBM91 module, the truncated proteins consisting only the GH43_11 catalytic module (rPphXyl43B-dCBM91) and only the CBM91 module (rCBM91) of PphXyl43B were constructed, respectively. The result showed that rPphXyl43B-dCBM91 completely lost hydrolysis activity against both p-nitrophenyl-ß-D-xylopyranoside and p-nitrophenyl-α-L-arabinofuranoside; it also exhibited significantly reduced activity towards xylobiose, xylotriose, oat spelt xylan and corncob xylan compared to the control. Thus, the CBM91 module is crucial for the ß-xylosidase/α-L-arabinofuranosidase activities in PphXyl43B. However, rCBM91 did not exhibit any binding capability towards corncob xylan. Structural analysis indicated that CBM91 of PphXyl43B might adopt a loop conformation (residues 496-511: ILSDDYVVQSYGGFFT) to actively contribute to the catalytic pocket formation rather than substrate binding capability. This study provides important insights into understanding the function of CBM91 and can be used as a reference for analyzing the action mechanism of GH43_11 enzymes and their application in biomass energy conversion.

Hemicellulose is a highly abundant, ubiquitous, and renewable natural polysaccharide, widely present in agricultural and forestry residues. The enzymatic hydrolysis of hemicellulose has generally been accomplished using ß-xylosidases, but concomitantly increasing the stability and activity of these enzymes remains challenging. Here, we rationally engineered a ß-xylosidase from Bacillus clausii to enhance its stability by computation-aided design combining ancestral sequence reconstruction and structural analysis. The resulting combinatorial mutant rXYLOM25I/S51L/S79E exhibited highly improved robustness, with a 6.9-fold increase of the half-life at 60 °C, while also exhibiting improved pH stability, catalytic efficiency, and hydrolytic activity. Structural analysis demonstrated that additional interactions among the propeller blades in the catalytic module resulted in a much more compact protein structure and induced the rearrangement of the opposing catalytic pocket to mediate the observed improvement of activity. Our work provides a robust biocatalyst for the hydrolysis of agricultural waste to produce various high-value-added chemicals and biofuels.

The glycoside hydrolase family 39 (GH39) proteins are renowned for their extremophilic and multifunctional enzymatic properties, yet the molecular mechanisms underpinning these unique characteristics continue to be an active subject of research. In this study, we introduce WsuXyn, a GH39 protein with a molecular weight of 58 kDa, originating from the thermophilic Geobacillus sp. WSUCF1. Previously reported for its exceptional thermostable ß-xylosidase activity, WsuXyn has recently demonstrated a significant endoxylanase activity (3752 U·mg-1) against beechwood xylan, indicating towards its bifunctional nature. Physicochemical characterization revealed that WsuXyn exhibits optimal endoxylanase activity at 70 °C and pH 7.0. Thermal stability assessments revealed that the enzyme is resilient to elevated temperatures, with a half-life of 168 h. Key kinetic parameters highlight the exceptional catalytic efficiency and strong affinity of the protein for xylan substrate. Moreover, WsuXyn-mediated hydrolysis of beechwood xylan has achieved 77 % xylan conversion, with xylose as the primary product. Structural analysis, amalgamated with docking simulations, has revealed strong binding forces between xylotetraose and the protein, with key amino acid residues, including Glu278, Tyr230, Glu160, Gly202, Cys201, Glu324, and Tyr283, playing pivotal roles in these interactions. Therefore, WsuXyn holds a strong promise for biodegradation and value-added product generation through lignocellulosic biomass conversion.

The Xylo-1 xylosidase, which belongs to the GH43 family, exhibits a high salt tolerance. The present study demonstrated that the catalytic activity of Xylo-1 increased by 195% in the presence of 5 M NaCl. Additionally, the half-life of Xylo-1 increased 25.9-fold in the presence of 1 M NaCl. Through comprehensive analysis including circular dichroism, fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulations, we elucidated that the presence of Na+ ions increased the contact frequency between the surface acidic amino acids and the surrounding water molecules. This resulted in the stabilization of the surrounding hydration layer of Xylo-1. Additionally, Na+ ions also stabilized the substrate-binding conformation and the fluctuation of water molecules within the active site, which enhanced the catalytic activity of Xylo-1 by increasing the nucleophilic attack by the water molecules. Ultimately, the optimal reaction conditions for the production of xylose by synergistic catalysis with Xylo-1 and xylanase were determined. The results demonstrated that the conversion yield of the method was high for various sources of xylan, indicating the method could have potential industrial applications. This study explored the structure-activity relationship of catalysis in Xylo-1 under high-salt conditions, provides novel insights into the mechanism of halophilic enzymes, and serves as a reference for the industrial application of Xylo-1.

Improving the activity of ß-xylosidase at high temperature and organic solvents is important for the conversion of xylan, phytochemicals and some hydroxyl-containing substances to produce xylose and bioactive substances. In this study, a ß-xylosidase R333H and an endoxylanase were simultaneously co-immobilized on the metal-organic framework UiO-66-NH2. Compared with the single R333H immobilization system, the co-immobilization enhanced the activity of R333H at high temperature and high concentration of acetone, and the relative activities at 95 °C and 50% acetone solution were >95%. The Km value of co-immobilized R333H towards p-Nitrophenyl-ß-D-xylopyranoside (pNPX) shifted from 2.04 to 0.94 mM, which indicated the enhanced affinity towards pNPX. After 5 cycles, the relative activities of the co-immobilized enzymes towards pNPX and corncob xylan were 52% and 70% respectively, and the accumulated amount of reducing sugars obtained by co-immobilized enzymes degrading corncob xylan in 30% (v/v) acetone solution was 1.7 times than that with no acetone.

The complete degradation of abundant xylan derived from plants requires the participation of ß-xylosidases to produce the xylose which can be converted to xylitol, ethanol, and other valuable chemicals. Some phytochemicals can also be hydrolyzed by ß-xylosidases into bioactive substances, such as ginsenosides, 10-deacetyltaxol, cycloastragenol, and anthocyanidins. On the contrary, some hydroxyl-containing substances such as alcohols, sugars, and phenols can be xylosylated by ß-xylosidases into new chemicals such as alkyl xylosides, oligosaccharides, and xylosylated phenols. Thus, ß-xylosidases shows great application prospects in food, brewing, and pharmaceutical industries. This review focuses on the molecular structures, biochemical properties, and bioactive substance transformation function of ß-xylosidases derived from bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, and metagenomes. The molecular mechanisms of ß-xylosidases related to the properties and functions are also discussed. This review will serve as a reference for the engineering and application of ß-xylosidases in food, brewing, and pharmaceutical industries.

Structural and conformational insights of a putative ß-1,4-xylosidase (PsGH43F) of glycoside hydrolase family 43 from Pseudopedobacter saltans were investigated by computational and Circular Dichroism (CD) analyses. PsGH43F was cloned and expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) cells and the purified enzyme gave the size ~50 kDa on SDS-PAGE analysis. Multiple Sequence Alignment of PsGH43F sequence followed by superposition of modeled structure with homologous structures displayed the presence of three conserved catalytic amino acid residues, Asp33, Asp149 and Glu212. The secondary structure analysis by CD showed 2.72 % α-helix and 36.06 % ß-strands. The homology modeled structure of PsGH43F displayed a 5-bladed ß-propeller fold for catalytic module at N-terminal and a ß-sandwich structure for CBM6 at the C-terminal. Ramachandran plot displayed 99.5 % of residues in the allowed regions. MD simulation of PsGH43F revealed the compactness and stability of the structure. Molecular docking studies of PsGH43F with xylo-oligosaccharides revealed its maximum binding affinity for xylobiose. MD simulation of PsGH43F-xylobiose complex confirmed the increased structural and conformational stability in presence of substrate. The Hydrodynamic diameter analysis of PsGH43F by DLS was in the range, 0.25-0.28 µm.

Nowadays, alkali-tolerant ß-xylosidases and their molecular mechanism of pH adaptability have been poorly studied. Here, a novel GH43 ß-xylosidase (XYLO) was isolated from Bacillus clausii TCCC 11004, and the recombinant ß-xylosidase (rXYLO) was most active at pH 8.0 and stable in a broad pH range (7.0-11.0), exhibiting superior alkali tolerance. Molecular dynamics simulation indicated that XYLO showed a notable overall structural stability and an enlargement of substrate binding pocket under alkaline condition, resulting in the formation of a new hydrogen bond between substrate and Arg286 of XYLO, and the tight binding played a key role in improving the XYLO activity with the increasing pH. Moreover, rXYLO with an endo-xylanase resulted in high xylose yields by hydrolyzing alkali-extracted xylan from agricultural wastes. This work would provide an alkali-tolerant ß-xylosidase, enhance the understanding for the relationship of structure and activity adapted to the high-alkaline environment, and promote its application in xylose production.

Xylan is the most common hemicellulose in plant cell walls, though the structure of xylan polymers differs between plant species. Here, to gain a better understanding of fungal xylan degradation systems, which can enhance enzymatic saccharification of plant cell walls in industrial processes, we conducted a comparative study of two glycoside hydrolase family 3 (GH3) ß-xylosidases (Bxls), one from the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium (PcBxl3), and the other from the ascomycete Trichoderma reesei (TrXyl3A). A comparison of the crystal structures of the two enzymes, both with saccharide bound at the catalytic center, provided insight into the basis of substrate binding at each subsite. PcBxl3 has a substrate-binding pocket at subsite -1, while TrXyl3A has an extra loop that contains additional binding subsites. Furthermore, kinetic experiments revealed that PcBxl3 degraded xylooligosaccharides faster than TrXyl3A, while the KM values of TrXyl3A were lower than those of PcBxl3. The relationship between substrate specificity and degree of polymerization of substrates suggested that PcBxl3 preferentially degrades xylobiose (X2), while TrXyl3A degrades longer xylooligosaccharides. Moreover, docking simulation supported the existence of extended positive subsites of TrXyl3A in the extra loop located at the N-terminus of the protein. Finally, phylogenetic analysis suggests that wood-decaying basidiomycetes use Bxls such as PcBxl3 that act efficiently on xylan structures from woody plants, whereas molds use instead Bxls that efficiently degrade xylan from grass. Our results provide added insights into fungal efficient xylan degradation systems.

The pulp and paper industry discharges massive amount of wastewater containing hazardous organochlorine compounds released during different processing stages. Therefore, some cost-effective and nonpolluting practices such as enzymatic treatments are required for the potential mitigation of effluents released in the environment. Various xylanolytic enzymes such as xylanases, laccases, cellulases and hemicellulases are used to hydrolyse raw materials in the paper manufacturing industry. These enzymes are used either individually or in combination, which has the efficient potential to be considered for bio-deinking and bio-bleaching components. They are highly dynamic, renewable, and high in specificity for enhancing paper quality. The xylanase act on the xylan and cellulases act on the cellulose fibers, and thus increase the bleaching efficacy of paper. Similarly, hemicellulase enzyme like endo-xylanases, arabinofuranosidase and ß-D-xylosidases have been described as functional properties towards the biodegradation of biomass. In contrast, laccase enzymes act as multi-copper oxidoreductases, bleaching the paper by the oxidation and reduction process. Laccases possess low redox potential compared to other enzymes, which need some redox mediators to catalyze. The enzymatic process can be affected by various factors such as pH, temperature, metal ions, incubation periods, etc. These factors can either increase or decrease the efficiency of the enzymes. This review draws attention to the xylanolytic enzyme-based advanced technologies for pulp bleaching in the paper industry.

Xylanases (EC 3.2.1.8) have been considered as a potential green solution for the sustainable development of a wide range of industries including pulp and paper, food and beverages, animal feed, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels because they are the key enzymes that degrade the xylosidic linkages of xylan, the major component of the second most abundant raw material worldwide. Therefore, there is a critical need for the industrialized xylanases which must have high specific activity, be tolerant to organic solvent or detergent and be active during a wide range of conditions, such as high temperature and pH. In this study, an extracellular xylanase was purified from the culture broth of Aspergillus niger VTCC 017 for primary structure determination and properties characterization. The successive steps of purification comprised centrifugation, Sephadex G-100 filtration, and DEAE-Sephadex chromatography. The purified xylanase (specific activity reached 6596.79 UI/mg protein) was a monomer with a molecular weight of 37 kDa estimating from SDS electrophoresis. The results of LC/MS suggested that the purified protein is indeed an endo-1,4-ß-D-xylanase. The purified xylanase showed the optimal temperature of 55 °C, and pH 6.5 with a stable xylanolytic activity within the temperature range of 45-50 °C, and within the pH range of 5.0-8.0. Most divalent metal cations including Zn2+, Fe2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Mn2+ showed some inhibition of xylanase activity while the monovalent metal cations such as K+ and Ag+ exhibited slight stimulating effects on the enzyme activity. The introduction of 10-30% different organic solvents (n-butanol, acetone, isopropanol) and several detergents (Triton X-100, Tween 20, and SDS) slightly reduced the enzyme activity. Moreover, the purified xylanase seemed to be tolerant to methanol and ethanol and was even stimulated by Tween 80. Overall, with these distinctive properties, the putative xylanase could be a successful candidate for numerous industrial uses.

Xylooligosaccharides having various degrees of polymerization such as xylobiose, xylotriose, and xylotetraose positively affect human health by interacting with gut proteins. The present study aimed to identify proteins present in gut microflora, such as xylosidase, xylulokinase, etc., with the help of retrieved whole-genome annotations and find out the mechanistic interactions of those with the above substrates. The 3D structures of proteins, namely Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase B (XynB) from Lactobacillus brevis and beta-D-xylosidase (Xyl3) from Bifidobacterium adolescentis, were computationally predicted and validated with the help of various bioinformatics tools. Molecular docking studies identified the effectual binding of these proteins to the xylooligosaccharides, and the stabilities of the best-docked complexes were analyzed by molecular dynamic simulation. The present study demonstrated that XynB and Xyl3 showed better effectual binding toward Xylobiose with the binding energies of - 5.96 kcal/mol and - 4.2 kcal/mol, respectively. The interactions were stabilized by several hydrogen bonding having desolvation energy (- 6.59 and - 7.91). The conformational stabilities of the docked complexes were observed in the four selected complexes of XynB-xylotriose, XynB-xylotetraose, Xyl3-xylobiose, and Xyn3-xylotriose by MD simulations. This study showed that the interactions of these four complexes are stable, which means they have complex metabolic activities among each other. Extending these studies of understanding, the interaction between specific probiotics enzymes and their ligands can explore the detailed design of synbiotics in the future.

Fungal xylanases belonging to family GH30_7, initially categorized as endo-glucuronoxylanases, are now known to differ both in terms of substrate specificity, as well as mode of action. Recently, TtXyn30A, a GH30_7 xylanase from Thermothelomyces thermophila, was shown to possess dual activity, acting on the xylan backbone in both an endo- and an exo- manner. Here, in an effort to identify the structural characteristics that append these functional properties to the enzyme, we present the biochemical characterization of various TtXyn30A mutants as well as its crystal structure, alone, and in complex with the reaction product. An auxiliary catalytic amino acid has been identified, while it is also shown that glucuronic acid recognition is not mediated by a conserved arginine residue, as shown by previously determined GH30 structures.

The hyperthermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor kristjansonii encodes an unusual enzyme, CkXyn10C-GE15A, which incorporates two catalytic domains, a xylanase and a glucuronoyl esterase, and five carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) from families 9 and 22. The xylanase and glucuronoyl esterase catalytic domains were recently biochemically characterized, as was the ability of the individual CBMs to bind insoluble polysaccharides. Here, we further probed the abilities of the different CBMs from CkXyn10C-GE15A to bind to soluble poly- and oligosaccharides using affinity gel electrophoresis, isothermal titration calorimetry, and differential scanning fluorimetry. The results revealed additional binding properties of the proteins compared to the former studies on insoluble polysaccharides. Collectively, the results show that all five CBMs have their own distinct binding preferences and appear to complement each other and the catalytic domains in targeting complex cell wall polysaccharides. Additionally, through renewed efforts, we have achieved partial structural characterization of this complex multidomain protein. We have determined the structures of the third CBM9 domain (CBM9.3) and the glucuronoyl esterase (GE15A) by X-ray crystallography. CBM9.3 is the second CBM9 structure determined to date and was shown to bind oligosaccharide ligands at the same site but in a different binding mode compared to that of the previously determined CBM9 structure from Thermotoga maritima. GE15A represents a unique intermediate between reported fungal and bacterial glucuronoyl esterase structures as it lacks two inserted loop regions typical of bacterial enzymes and a third loop has an atypical structure. We also report small-angle X-ray scattering measurements of the N-terminal CBM22.1-CBM22.2-Xyn10C construct, indicating a compact arrangement at room temperature.

We previously selected S92E as a thermostable variant from a site saturation mutagenesis library. Here, we attempted to select the alkaliphilic XynR variant from the library and isolated T315N. In the hydrolysis of beechwood xylan, T315N and S92E/T315N exhibited a broader bell-shaped pH-dependent activity than the wild-type (WT) XynR and S92E. The optimal pH values of T315N and S92E/T315N were 6.5-9.5 while those of WT and S92E were 6.5-8.5. On the other hand, T315N and S92E/T315N exhibited a narrower bell-shaped pH dependence of stability: the pHs at which the activity was stable after the incubation at 37 °C for 24 h were 6.0-8.5 for T315N and S92E/T315N, but 6.0-10.0 for WT and S92E. These results indicated that the mutation of Thr315 to Asn increased the alkaliphily but decreased the alkaline resistance.

Arabinoxylans are cell wall polysaccharides whose re-modelling and degradation during plant development are mediated by several classes of xylanolytic enzymes. Here, we present the identification and new annotation of twelve putative (1,4)-ß-xylanase and six ß-xylosidase genes, and their spatio-temporal expression patterns during vegetative and reproductive growth of barley (Hordeum vulgare cv. Navigator). The encoded xylanase proteins are all predicted to contain a conserved carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) and a catalytic glycoside hydrolase (GH) 10 domain. Additional domains in some xylanases define three discrete phylogenetic clades: one clade contains proteins with an additional N-terminal signal sequence, while another clade contains proteins with multiple CBMs. Homology modelling revealed that all fifteen xylanases likely contain a third domain, a ß-sandwich folded from two non-contiguous sequence segments that bracket the catalytic GH domain, which may explain why the full length protein is required for correct folding of the active enzyme. Similarly, predicted xylosidase proteins share a highly conserved domain structure, each with an N-terminal signal peptide, a split GH 3 domain, and a C-terminal fibronectin-like domain. Several genes appear to be ubiquitously expressed during barley growth and development, while four newly annotated xylanase and xylosidase genes are expressed at extremely high levels, which may be of broader interest for industrial applications where cell wall degradation is necessary.
