Chimeric bi-functional enzyme possessing xylanase and deacetylase activity for hydrolysis of agro-biomass rich in acetylated xylan

Here, a chimeric bifunctional enzyme was developed for two activities xylanase and deacetylase. Chimeric enzyme was designed by combining the relevant amino acid stretches from two different parent sequences, such as polysaccharide/xylan deacetylase (ref id: MT682066) and xylanase (ref id WP_110897546.1). Five different hypothetical chimeras were developed and one of the best predicted chimeric protein GA_2(syn_SKYAP01) was synthesized. The...
