Endo-beta-1,4-mannanase from Thermotoga petrophila (TpMan) is a hyperthermostable enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of beta-1,4-mannoside linkages in various mannan-containing polysaccharides. The biodegradation of mannan represents a key step for various industrial applications including delignification of kraft pulps, food processing and production of second-generation biofuels. A re…
Biotechnological processes, such as biomass pre-treatments, are performed under extreme environmental conditions regarding pH, osmolarity and temperature. Thus, hyperthermophilic enzymes that are stable and functional at high temperatures offer substantial techno-economical advantages. The enzyme ²-mannanase from hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga petrophila (TpMan) catalyzes the hydr…
The complete enzymatic hydrolysis of mannan polysaccharides requires at least three types of enzymes working synergistically: ²-mannanase, ²-mannosidase, and ²-glucosidase. The hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga petrophila produces the enzyme endo-²-1,4-mannanse (TpMan), which is composed of a GH5 catalytic domain and a carbohydrate-binding domain connected through a linker. The cryst…
