Figure 1. Electrophoresis analysis of PoAra62B. M, molecular weight marker (PageRuler Prestained Protein Ladder, Thermo Scientific); lane 1, culture lysate before Methanol induction; lane 2-4, culture lysat after Methanol induction; lane 5, PoAra62B purified from Ni sepharose fastflow column.

2. SPECIFIC ACTIVITY

0.10 U/mg protein (on Sugar Beet Arabinan) at pH 4.0 and 40°C;

1.51 U/mg protein (on Arabinoxylan) at pH 4.0 and 40°C;

One Unit of arabinanase activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to release 1 μmol of reducing sugar per minute from arabinoxylan (2 mg/ml) in Na-Acetate buffer (20 mM) pH 4.0.

Figure 4. Effect of pH on activity (a) and stability (b) of PoAra62B using Arabinoxylan as substrate. The optimal pH (a) was determined at different pH from 2 to 11. The maximum activity obtained was defined as 100% activity. Thermal stability was determined by incubating the enzyme for 3 h at different pH. The activity of the enzyme before incubation was defined as 100%. Results are presented as means ± standard deviations(n = 3).

Figure 5. Effect of temperature on activity (a) and stability (b) of PoAra62B using Arabinoxylan as substrate. The optimal temperature (a) was determined at different temperatures from 20 to 90℃. The maximum activity obtained was defined as 100% activity. Thermal stability was determined by incubating the enzyme for 3 h at different temperatures. The activity of the enzyme before incubation was defined as 100%. Results are presented as means ± standard deviations(n = 3).

5. STORAGE CONDITIONS

The enzyme should be stored at -20°C. For assay, this enzyme should be diluted in acetate buffer (20 mM) pH 5.0. Swirl to mix the enzyme immediately prior to use.
