Deep research review of XynX function based on Selvaraj et al. 2010 and other sources
-
XynX is a GH10 family xylanase, not an exoglucanase
"XynX is a secreted, non-cellulosomal GH10 endo-beta-1,4-xylanase"
-
The thermostabilizing domain (TSD/CBM22) functions as a xylan-binding domain
"CBM22 primarily mediates xylan binding and contributes to thermostabilization"
-
XynX binds xylan and lichenan but exhibits negligible cellulase activity
"XynX hardly cleaved cellulosic substrates"
-
Modular architecture with SLH domains for cell-surface anchoring
"the presence of SLH suggests anchoring to the cell surface S-layer"
-
Temperature optima range from 50-65 degrees Celsius depending on truncation
"Reported optima for truncations were approximately 60 C (XynX1), 50 C (XynX2), and 65 C (XynX3)"
