Publication Abstract from PubMedA hot desert hypolith metagenomic DNA sequence dataset was screened in-silico for genes annotated as acetyl xylan esterases (AcXEs). One of the genes identified encoded a approximately 36 kDa protein (Axe1NaM1). The synthesised gene was cloned, expressed and the resulting protein, purified. NaM1 was optimally active at pH 8.5 and 30 degrees C, and functionally stable at salt concentrations up to 5 M.

The crystal structure of wild type NaM1 was solved at a resolution of 2.03 A and a comparison with the structures and models of more thermostable carbohydrate esterase (CE) 7 family enzymes and variants of NaM1 from a directed evolution experiment, respectively, suggest that reduced side chain volume of protein core residues is relevant to the thermal stability of NaM1.
