RESUMO
The genes encoding acetyl xylan esterase 1 (axe1) and a beta-xylosidase (xylB) have been cloned and sequenced from Thermoanaerobacterium sp. strain JW/SL YS485. axe1 is located 22 nucleotides 3' of the xylB sequence. The identity of axe1 was confirmed by comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence to peptide sequence analysis data from purified acetyl xylan esterase 1. The xylB gene was identified by expression cloning and by sequence homology to known beta-xylosidases. Plasmids which independently expressed either acetyl xylan esterase 1 (pAct1BK) or beta-xylosidase (pXylo-1.1) were constructed in Escherichia coli. Plasmid pXylAct-1 contained both genes joined at a unique EcoRI site and expressed both activities. Substrate specificity, pH, and temperature optima were determined for partially purified recombinant acetyl xylan esterase 1 and for crude recombinant beta-xylosidase. Similarity searches showed that the axe1 and xylB genes were homologs of the ORF-1 and xynB genes, respectively, isolated from Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum. Although the deduced sequence of the axe1 product had no significant amino acid sequence similarity to any reported acetyl xylan esterase sequence, it did have strong similarity to cephalosporin C deacetylase from Bacillus subtilis. Recombinant acetyl xylan esterase 1 was found to have thermostable deacetylase activity towards a number of acetylated substrates, including cephalosporin C and 7-aminocephalosporanic acid.
