Identification and Molecular Characterization of the First α-Xylosidase from an Archaeon *
We here report the first molecular characterization of an alpha-xylosidase (XylS) from an Archaeon. Sulfolobus solfataricus is able to grow at temperatures higher than 80 degrees C on several carbohydrates at acidic pH. The isolated xylS gene encodes a monomeric enzyme homologous to alpha-glucosidases, alpha-xylosidases, glucoamylases and sucrase-isomaltases of the glycosyl hydrolase family 31. xylS belongs to a cluster of four genes in the S. solfataricus genome, including a beta-glycosidase, an hypothetical membrane protein homologous to the major facilitator superfamily of transporters, and...
