As documented in the collaboration page, we have collaborated with team Ceres
(Official Team Name: Shanghai_Metro_HS), whose project focuses on designing engineered probiotics that is
functional in secreting cellulase, which will be utilized to produce feed additives for silage. If their
project succeeds, silage with their additives will help ruminants better digest cellulose, and hence enhance
ruminants health. Healthier ruminants for their breeders usually mean higher output and more profit,
meanwhile, they also mean better-quality meat for the general public.
In parallel, we aim at developing a probiotic (Lactobacillus) containing xylanase
to produce feed additives and poultry beverages, which are believed to help poultry digest xylan and enhance
their health.
Their project follows a similar development logic with ours, thus, is it possible
for us to move forward with a combined research direction? Is it possible to produce a novel “mixed feed”
that is able to enhance both poultry and ruminants’ digestion? If so, this idea will become very valuable
and may provide our two teams with an additional option for future research.
Research Background
We discussed the idea of “Mixed Feed” together and found that both of our teams
showed great interest in this topic. Thus, we started to research about the feasibility of this fancy idea.
After an in-depth research, we obtained the following theoretical foundations for
our idea.
Xylanase and β-xylosidase are the backbone degrading enzymes of heterogeneous
xylan, which can degrade the xylan backbone to produce xylo-oligosaccharides or xyloses with different
degrees of polymerization, which play an important role in the degradation of hemicellulose. β-xylosidase is
mainly distributed in the GH3 and GH43 families. It degrades the oligomeric degree of xylan or xylobiose
produced by the hydrolysis of xylanase, releases xylose from the non-reducing end, and weakens the substrate
inhibition of oligosaccharides. Strains that secrete xylanase can generally produce β-xylosidase, which
works together with xylanase. More and more studies have shown that β-xylosidase plays an important role in
the degradation of lignocellulose. In the process of lignocellulose hydrolysis, β-xylosidase further
hydrolyzes xylo-oligosaccharides and xylobiose, which are hydrolysates of xylanase, into xylose.
β-xylosidase not only plays a key role in the complete degradation of xylan, but also alleviate the
inhibitory effect of xylo-oligosaccharides on xylanase and cellulase. Therefore, β-xylosidase has been
considered as one of the core enzymes in cellulase preparations.
Thus, based on the research above, our two teams decided to work for increasing the
degradation rate of feed and solve the bottleneck problem of low cellulase hydrolysis efficiency and high
cost. We have come up with a multi-enzyme synergistic degradation strategy. Xylanase has the properties of
hydrolyzing hemicellulose and can cooperate with cellulase to promote the biotransformation of
lignocellulose. We will further add the Bacillus subtilis xylanase xynA gene to the cloning recombinant
vector to make it compatible with cellulase PKC -01 and express β-xylosidase at the same time (as shown in
the figure below) . We wish that in this way, we will be able to improve the utilization rate of silage and
grain mixed feed, and the applicable varieties of poultry and ruminants.

Vector construction
1. The new family β-xylosidase from Humicola insolens Y1 has high tolerance to
D-xylose. Thus, in our combined experiments, the gene is linked to a vector expressing xylanase xynA through
GS linker to form pSIP403-PUS-xynA -xyl3A recombinant plasmid.

2. Vector pET-25b-PKC will be provided by Team Ceres (Shanghai_Metro_HS)
Further Experiments:
1. By chemically transferring the designed plasmids of pSIP403-PUS-xynA-xyl3A and
pET-25-PKC into E.coli (DH5α) for patent protection;
2. Heterologous expression in Pichia pastoris.
1) Pichia pastoris is used for co-expression of xylanase xynA/β-xylitol, and
cellulase PKC is expressed separately;
2) Positive transformants are screened to obtain a recombinant bacterial group with
high enzyme production;
3) Enzyme activity and extracellular protein secretion are measured.
4) The three enzymes will be mixed and added in different proportions to explore
the promotion of β-xylitol on the degradation of hemicellulose under different conditions such as pH,
temperature and reaction time. Simultaneously, the high concentration of fermentable sugars (glucose and
xylose) are tested under different conditions, which are produced by the synergistic effect of xylanase and
cellulase in hydrolyzing cellulose and hemicellulose contained in lignocellulose.
