Xylanase

Xylanases are enzymes that degrade xylan, a major component of plant cell walls, into simpler sugars. As feed additives, they play a crucial role in breaking down complex polysaccharides in animal diets, particularly for non-ruminants like poultry and swine. This enzymatic action enhances nutrient availability and digestion, leading to improved feed efficiency, growth performance, and overall health of the animals2. Moreover, the supplementation of xylanase in animal feed can significantly reduce feed costs and environmental impact by increasing nutrient absorption and decreasing nutrient excretion.

We chose the xylanase gene from Streptomyces thermovulgaris for yeast surface display due to its exceptional properties. Research5,6 on Streptomyces thermovulgaris has shown that its crude xylanase can hydrolyze KOH-treated corncob and produce bioactive xylooligosaccharides (XOs). The purified enzyme is highly stable across a broad pH range (4.0–11.5) and thermostable between 50–70°C, with maximum activity at 65°C and a half-life of 90 minutes at 70°C. Additionally, the enzyme’s products act as prebiotics that promote the growth of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum, making it an ideal candidate for improving animal feed due to its stability, efficiency, and probiotic support.
