XYLAN-BINDING MODULE CBM15
Overview
The recycling of photosynthetically fixed carbon by the action of, microbial glycoside hydrolases is a key biological process. The consortium, of degradative enzymes involved in this process frequently display, catalytic modules appended to one or more noncatalytic, carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs). CBMs play a central role in the, optimization of the catalytic activity of plant cell wall hydrolases, through their binding to specific plant structural polysaccharides., Despite their pivotal role in the biodegradation of plant biomass, the, mechanism by which these proteins recognize their target ligands is, unclear. This report describes the structure of a xylan-binding CBM, (CBM15) in complex with its ligand. This module, derived from Pseudomonas, cellulosa xylanase Xyn10C, binds to ... [(full description)]
