Title:
MUTANT XYLANASE, MANUFACTURING METHOD AND USE THEREFOR, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SACCHARIFIED LIGNOCELLULOSE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/077432
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention addresses the following problems: providing an inexpensive, efficient lignocellulose saccharification method using a thermostable xylanase; and providing a mutant xylanase that has a substituted amino-acid residue, exhibits stable activity even under harsh conditions in which enzymes are easily deactivated, and has an initial reaction rate not much less than that of the corresponding wild-type xylanase. A lignocellulose saccharification method that includes bringing a lignocellulose feedstock into contact with a thermostable xylanase; and a mutant xylanase that has a substituted amino-acid residue, has an initial reaction rate at least 70% of that of the corresponding wild-type xylanase, and, after a 24-hour heat treatment at 50°C, exhibits xylanase activity at least 50% of that exhibited before said heat treatment.
