Microbial Diversity in Ecosystem Sustainability and Biotechnological Applications

Abstract

Heterogenous nature of xylan leads to the multiplicity in xylanolytic enzymes for its complete degradation, where β-1,4-endoxylanases and β-xylosidases play a key role due to their direct action on glycosidic linkages of xylan backbone. α-Glucuronidase (EC 3.2.1.139), α-L-arabinofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.99), acetyl xylan esterase (EC 3.1.1.6), and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) are the other prominent players in the xylanolytic enzyme system. Xylan-degrading enzymes are produced by a large number of bacteria and a few archaea. These share a major chunk of industrially relevant enzymes because of their immense potential and widespread applications in several industries that include food/feed, paper, textile, oil extraction, bioethanol, prebiotics, and de-inking waste paper. Microorganisms are a rich source of xylanolytic enzymes. Xylanases produced by bacteria and archaea are functional in broader pH (5.0–10.0) and temperature (30–100 °C) ranges. Easiness in cultivation, rapid growth rates, and well-established methods of DNA manipulations make bacteria preferred microbes over others for xylanase production. This chapter deals with the diversity of bacteria and archaea which produce a variety of xylan-hydrolyzing enzymes and their widespread applications.
