J.Struct.Biol., 217:108213-108213, 2025 Cited by PubMed Abstract: Xeg5A from Aspergillus oryzae belongs to glycoside hydrolase family 5 subfamily 4. This enzyme has been characterized as a xyloglucan-specific endo-β-1,4-glucanase (xyloglucanase) that cleaves the main chain of xyloglucan at both unbranched and xylosylated glucosyl residues in an endo-processive mode of action. X-ray crystallography revealed that Xeg5A is a tri-modular enzyme composed of a catalytic, an Ig-like, and a C-terminal CBM46-like domains. Xeg5A structures complexed with branched xyloglucan oligosaccharides at subsites -4 to +4 showed that the recognition of xyloglucan side-chain moieties is important for Xeg5A activity. The crystal structure also provided structural insights into the role of the CBM46-like domain in contributing to regiospecificity and, possibly, processivity.
