Endoxanthanase, a Novel β-d-Glucanase Hydrolyzing Backbone Linkage of Intact Xanthan from Newly Isolated Microbacterium sp. XT11
A novel endoxanthanase was produced and isolated from the culture of Microbacterium sp. XT11 growing on xanthan. Optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were 6.0 and 35-40 °C, respectively. The endoxanthanase cleaves the backbone endo-β-1,4-glucosidic linkage of the xanthan molecule, whic...

Zusammenfassung: | A novel endoxanthanase was produced and isolated from the culture of Microbacterium sp. XT11 growing on xanthan. Optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were 6.0 and 35-40 °C, respectively. The endoxanthanase cleaves the backbone endo-β-1,4-glucosidic linkage of the xanthan molecule, which is specific to the intact xanthan. However, the lyase-treated xanthan or carboxymethyl cellulose could not be cleaved by endoxanthanase. |
