RESUMO
A homology modeling of xylanase XYNB from Streptomyces olivaceoviridis A1 was made by Swiss-Model. The hydrophobic Interaction between beta-sheet B1 and B2 in the tertiary structure model of XYNB was compared with other thermophilic xylanase. A T11Y mutation was introduced in XYNB by site-dirrected mutagenesis to improve the thermostability of the enzyme. The XYNB and mutant xylanase (XYNB') expressed in Pichia pastoris were purified and their enzymatic properties were determined. The result revealed that the thermostability of XYNB' was obviously higher than that of XYNB. The optimal temperature of XYNB' for its activity was 60 degrees C, similar to XYNB. But, compare to XYNB, the optimal pH value, the Km value and the specific activity of XYNB' had also been changed. The research results suggested that the aromatic interaction between beta-sheet B1 and B2 in xylanase should increase enzyme thermostability. The mutant xylanase XYNB' is a good material for further research in the relationship between structure and function of xylanase.

Extracellular serine protease SFP2 from Streptomyces fradiae var. k11 with high feather-degrading activity was purified. The partial amino acid sequences of internal peptide of purified SFP2 were determined, and the partial gene encoding SFP2 was cloned by PCR using the degenerate primers designed according to the amino acid sequences. Complete sfp2 gene was cloned by screening the genomic DNA library of Streptomyces fradiae var. k11. The Open Reading Frame of sfp2 including pre- pro-enzyme is 924bp long (EMBL Accession number: AJ784940). The signal peptide sequence is as long as 114bp, the precursor sequence is 810bp and the mature enzyme is 576bp long, encoding 191 amino acid resides with the putative molecular weight of 19.112kD. In E. coli and Bacillus subtilis, the two sequences encoding SFP2 pro-enzyme and mature enzyme were both expressed successfully. The pro-enzyme expressed had normal biological function and its mature product had normal enzymatic activity.

The gene xynA encoding xylanase was cloned from Streptomyces olivaceoviridis A1. The xynA with and without origin signal peptide sequence were fused behind pel B signal peptide in the plasmid pET-22b(+) respectively, then transfered into the host E. coli. The xylanase expressed in E. coli had normal bioactivity. Further, the xynA without origin signal peptide sequence was cloned into the plasmid pPIC9 under the control of AOX1 promoter and introduced into the host Pichia pastoris by electroporation. The results of SDS-PAGE and activity assay of the xylanase expressed by recombinant P. pastoris showed that the xynA had been overexpressed and secreted, and the xylanase expressed had normal bioactivity. The expression level of xylanase in recombinant P. pastoris exceeded 0.2mg/mL in shake culture.
