Xylanase II from Tricoderma reesei at 293K
Structural highlights
FunctionXYN2_HYPJR Glycoside hydrolase involved in the hydrolysis of xylan, a major plant cell wall hemicellulose made up of 1,4-beta-linked D-xylopyranose residues. Catalyzes the endohydrolysis of the main-chain 1,4-beta-glycosidic bonds connecting the xylose subunits yielding various xylooligosaccharides and xylose (PubMed:1369024, Ref.5). The catalysis proceeds by a double-displacement reaction mechanism with a putative covalent glycosyl-enzyme intermediate, with retention of the anomeric configuration (PubMed:7988708). Produces xylobiose and xylose as the main degradation products (PubMed:19556747).[1] [2] [3] [4] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedAn orthorhombic crystal of xylanase II from Trichoderma reesei was grown in the presence of sodium iodide. Crystal structures at atomic resolution were determined at 100 and 293 K. Protein molecules were aligned along a crystallographic twofold screw axis, forming a helically extended polymer-like chain mediated by an iodide ion. The iodide ion connected main-chain peptide groups between two adjacent molecules by an N-H...I-...H-N hydrogen-bond bridge, thus contributing to regulation of the molecular arrangement and suppression of the rigid-body motion in the crystal with high diffraction quality. The structure at 293 K showed considerable thermal motion in the loop regions connecting the beta-strands that form the active-site cleft. TLS model analysis of the thermal motion and a comparison between this structure and that at 100 K suggest that the fluctuation of these loop regions is attributable to the hinge-like movement of the beta-strands.
