C-TERMINAL XYLAN BINDING DOMAIN FROM CELLULOMONAS FIMI XYLANASE 11A
Overview
Glycoside hydrolases often contain multiple copies of noncatalytic, carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs) from the same or different families., Currently, the functional importance of this complex molecular, architecture is unclear. To investigate the role of multiple CBMs in plant, cell wall hydrolases, we have determined the polysaccharide binding, properties of wild type and various derivatives of Cellulomonas fimi, xylanase 11A (Cf Xyn11A). This protein, which binds to both cellulose and, xylan, contains two family 2b CBMs that exhibit 70% sequence identity, one, internal (CBM2b-1), which has previously been shown to bind specifically, to xylan and the other at the C-terminus (CBM2b-2). Biochemical, characterization of CBM2b-2 showed that the module bound to insoluble and, soluble oat ... [(full description)]
