Abstract
Transglycosylating glycoside hydrolases (GHs) offer great potential for the enzymatic synthesis of oligosaccharides. Although knowledge is progressing, there is no unique strategy to improve the transglycosylation yield. Obtaining efficient enzymatic tools for glycan synthesis with GHs remains dependent on an improved understanding of the molecular factors governing the balance between hydrolysis and transglycosylation. This enzymatic and structural study of RBcel1, a transglycosylase from the GH5_5 subfamily isolated from an uncultured bacterium, aims to unravel such factors. The size of the acceptor and donor sugars was found to be critical since transglycosylation is efficient with oligosaccharides at least the size of cellotetraose as the donor and cellotriose as the acceptor. The reaction pH is important in driving the balance between hydrolysis and transglycosylation: hydrolysis is favored at pH values below 8, while transglycosylation becomes the major reaction at basic pH. Solving the structures of two RBcel1 variants, RBcel1_E135Q and RBcel1_Y201F, in complex with ligands has brought to light some of the molecular factors behind transglycosylation. The structure of RBcel1_E135Q in complex with cellotriose allowed a +3 subsite to be defined, in accordance with the requirement for cellotriose as a transglycosylation acceptor. The structure of RBcel1_Y201F has been obtained with several transglycosylation intermediates, providing crystallographic evidence of transglycosylation. The catalytic cleft is filled with (i) donors ranging from cellotriose to cellohexaose in the negative subsites and (ii) cellobiose and cellotriose in the positive subsites. Such a structure is particularly relevant since it is the first structure of a GH5 enzyme in complex with transglycosylation products that has been obtained with neither of the catalytic glutamate residues modified.

Abstract
Glycobiology is dogged by the relative scarcity of synthetic, defined oligosaccharides. Enzyme-catalysed glycosylation using glycoside hydrolases is feasible but is hampered by the innate hydrolytic activity of these enzymes. Protein engineering is useful to remedy this, but it usually requires prior structural knowledge of the target enzyme, and/or relies on extensive, time-consuming screening and analysis. Here, a straightforward strategy that involves rational rapid in silico analysis of protein sequences is described. The method pinpoints 6-12 single-mutant candidates to improve transglycosylation yields. Requiring very little prior knowledge of the target enzyme other than its sequence, the method is generic and procures catalysts for the formation of glycosidic bonds involving various d/l-, α/β-pyranosides or furanosides, and exo or endo action. Moreover, mutations validated in one enzyme can be transposed to others, even distantly related enzymes.

Abstract
Endo-β-xylanases are hemicellulases involved in the conversion of xylans in plant biomass. Here, we report a novel acidophilic β-xylanase (ScXynA) with high transglycosylation abilities that was isolated from the filamentous fungus Scytalidium candidum 3C. ScXynA was identified as a glycoside hydrolase family 10 (GH10) dimeric protein, with a molecular weight of 38 ± 5 kDa per subunit. The enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of different xylans under acidic conditions and was stable in the pH range 2.6-4.5. The kinetic parameters of ScXynA were determined in hydrolysis reactions with p-nitrophenyl-β-d-cellobioside (pNP-β-Cel) and p-nitrophenyl-β-d-xylobioside (pNP-β-Xyl2 ), and kcat /Km was found to be 0.43 ± 0.02 (s·mM)-1 and 57 ± 3 (s·mM)-1 , respectively. In the catalysis of the transglycosylation o-nitrophenyl-β-d-xylobioside (oNP-β-Xyl2 ) acted both as a donor and an acceptor, resulting in the efficient production of o-nitrophenyl xylooligosaccharides, with a degree of polymerization of 3-10 and o-nitrophenyl-β-d-xylotetraose (oNP-β-Xyl4 ) as the major product (18.5% yield). The modeled ScXynA structure showed a favorable position for ligand entry and o-nitrophenyl group accommodation in the relatively open -3 subsite, while the cleavage site was covered with an extended loop. These structural features provide favorable conditions for transglycosylation with oNP-β-Xyl2 . The acidophilic properties and high transglycosylation activity make ScXynA a suitable choice for various biotechnological applications, including the synthesis of valuable xylooligosaccharides.

Abstract
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) signify a unique group of oligosaccharides in breast milk, which is of major importance for infant health and development. The functional benefits of HMOs create an enormous impetus for biosynthetic production of HMOs for use as additives in infant formula and other products. HMO molecules can be synthesized chemically, via fermentation, and by enzymatic synthesis. This treatise discusses these different techniques, with particular focus on harnessing enzymes for controlled enzymatic synthesis of HMO molecules. In order to foster precise and high-yield enzymatic synthesis, several novel protein engineering approaches have been reported, mainly concerning changing glycoside hydrolases to catalyze relevant transglycosylations. The protein engineering strategies for these enzymes range from rationally modifying specific catalytic residues, over targeted subsite -1 mutations, to unique and novel transplantations of designed peptide sequences near the active site, so-called loop engineering. These strategies have proven useful to foster enhanced transglycosylation to promote different types of HMO synthesis reactions. The rationale of subsite -1 modification, acceptor binding site matching, and loop engineering, including changes that may alter the spatial arrangement of water in the enzyme active site region, may prove useful for novel enzyme-catalyzed carbohydrate design in general.

Abstract
The β-galactosidase from Aspergillus oryzae produces galactooligosaccharides with beneficial prebiotic effects through the transglycosylation of lactose. However, its low galactooligosaccharide yield greatly limits its use in industrial applications. Rational design and site-directed mutagenesis were used to produce three mutants of A. oryzae β-galactosidase: N140C, W806F, and N140C/W806F. The galactooligosaccharide yields of N140C (50.7%), W806F (49.3%), and N140C/W806F (59.8%) represent substantial improvements over that of the wild-type (35.7%). The galactooligosaccharide yield of N140C/W806F is the highest reported to date. Our rational design approach suggests novel strategies for further study of the β-galactosidase reaction mechanism and has produced mutants may be more useful in industrial applications than wild-type A. oryzae β-galactosidase.

β-Mannanase-catalyzed synthesis of alkyl mannooligosides. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2018; 102:5149-5163.

Abstract
β-Mannanases catalyze the conversion and modification of β-mannans and may, in addition to hydrolysis, also be capable of transglycosylation which can result in enzymatic synthesis of novel glycoconjugates. Using alcohols as glycosyl acceptors (alcoholysis), β-mannanases can potentially be used to synthesize alkyl glycosides, biodegradable surfactants, from renewable β-mannans. In this paper, we investigate the synthesis of alkyl mannooligosides using glycoside hydrolase family 5 β-mannanases from the fungi Trichoderma reesei (TrMan5A and TrMan5A-R171K) and Aspergillus nidulans (AnMan5C). To evaluate β-mannanase alcoholysis capacity, a novel mass spectrometry-based method was developed that allows for relative comparison of the formation of alcoholysis products using different enzymes or reaction conditions. Differences in alcoholysis capacity and potential secondary hydrolysis of alkyl mannooligosides were observed when comparing alcoholysis catalyzed by the three β-mannanases using methanol or 1-hexanol as acceptor. Among the three β-mannanases studied, TrMan5A was the most efficient in producing hexyl mannooligosides with 1-hexanol as acceptor. Hexyl mannooligosides were synthesized using TrMan5A and purified using high-performance liquid chromatography. The data suggests a high selectivity of TrMan5A for 1-hexanol as acceptor over water. The synthesized hexyl mannooligosides were structurally characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance, with results in agreement with their predicted β-conformation. The surfactant properties of the synthesized hexyl mannooligosides were evaluated using tensiometry, showing that they have similar micelle-forming properties as commercially available hexyl glucosides. The present paper demonstrates the possibility of using β-mannanases for alkyl glycoside synthesis and increases the potential utilization of renewable β-mannans.

Abstract
The preparation of oligosaccharides via xylan hydrolysis is an effective way to add value to hemicellulosic material of agricultural waste. The bacterial strain Streptomyces L10608, isolated from soil, contains genes encoding xylanases of glucoside hydrolase family 10/11 (GH10/11), and these have been cloned to catalyze the production of xylooligosaccharide (XOS). To improve the XOS proportion of hydrolysates produced by xylanase, four amino acid residues were substituted by site-directed mutagenesis, and the mutant genes were overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Mutations replaced the codons encoding Asn214 (+2) and Asn86 (−2) by Ala and removed the Ricin B-lectin domain in GH10-xyn, and mutants Y115A (−2) and Y123A (−2) were produced for GH11-xyn. Interestingly, GH10-N86Q had significantly increased hydrolysis of XOS and almost eliminated xylose (X1) to <2.5%, indicating that the −2 binding site of GH10-xyn of L10608 is required for binding with xylotriose (X3). The hydrolytic activity of GH10-N86Q was increased approximately 1.25-fold using beechwood xylan as a substrate and had high affinity for the substrate with a low Km of about 1.85 mg·mL−1. Otherwise, there were no significant differences in enzymatic properties between GH10-N86Q and GH10-xyn. These mutants offer great potential for modification of xylanase with desired XOS hydrolysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The increasing market demand for oligosaccharides has intensified the need for efficient biocatalysts. Glycosyl hydrolases (GHs) are still gaining popularity as biocatalyst for oligosaccharides synthesis owing to its simple reaction and high selectivity. PURPOSE Over the years, research has advanced mainly directing to one goal; to reduce hydrolysis activity of GHs for increased transglycosylation activity in achieving high production of oligosaccharides. DESIGN AND METHODS This review concisely presents the strategies to increase transglycosylation activity of GHs for oligosaccharides synthesis, focusing on controlling the reaction equilibrium, and protein engineering. Various modifications of the subsites of GHs have been demonstrated to significantly modulate the hydrolysis and transglycosylation activity of the enzymes. The clear insight of the roles of each amino acid in these sites provides a platform for designing an enzyme that could synthesize a specific oligosaccharide product. CONCLUSIONS The key strategies presented here are important for future improvement of GHs as a biocatalyst for oligosaccharide synthesis.

Abstract
Unveiling the determinants for transferase and hydrolase activity in glycoside hydrolases would allow using their vast diversity for creating novel transglycosylases, thereby unlocking an extensive toolbox for carbohydrate chemists. Three different amino acid substitutions at position 220 of a GH1 β-glucosidase from Thermotoga neapolitana caused an increase of the ratio of transglycosylation to hydrolysis (rs/rh) from 0.33 to 1.45–2.71. Further increase in rs/rh was achieved by modulation of pH of the reaction medium. The wild-type enzyme had a pH optimum for both hydrolysis and transglycosylation around 6 and reduced activity at higher pH. Interestingly, the mutants had constant transglycosylation activity over a broad pH range (5–10), while the hydrolytic activity was largely eliminated at pH 10. The results demonstrate that a combination of protein engineering and medium engineering can be used to eliminate the hydrolytic activity without affecting the transglycosylation activity of a glycoside hydrolase. The underlying factors for this success are pursued, and perturbations of the catalytic acid/base in combination with flexibility are shown to be important factors.

Abstract
Plant mannanases are enzymes that carry out fundamentally important functions in cell wall metabolism during plant growth and development by digesting manno-polysaccharides. In this work, the Arabidopsis mannanase 5-2 (AtMan5-2) from a previously uncharacterized subclade of glycoside hydrolase family 5 subfamily 7 (GH5_7) has been heterologously produced in Pichia pastoris. Purified recombinant AtMan5-2 is a glycosylated protein with an apparent molecular mass of 50kDa, a pH optimum of 5.5-6.0 and a temperature optimum of 25°C. The enzyme exhibits high substrate affinity and catalytic efficiency on mannan substrates with main chains containing both glucose and mannose units such as konjac glucomannan and spruce galactoglucomannan. Product analysis of manno-oligosaccharide hydrolysis shows that AtMan5-2 requires at least six substrate-binding subsites. No transglycosylation activity for the recombinant enzyme was detected in the present study. Our results demonstrate diversification of catalytic function among members in the Arabidopsis GH5_7 subfamily.

Abstract
Background β-Mannans are abundant and diverse plant structural and storage polysaccharides. Certain human gut microbiota members including health-promoting Bifidobacterium spp. catabolize dietary mannans. Little insight is available on the enzymology of mannan deconstruction in the gut ecological niche. Here, we report the biochemical properties of the first family 5 subfamily 8 glycoside hydrolase (GH5_8) mannanase from the probiotic bacterium Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bl-04 (BlMan5_8). Results BlMan5_8 possesses a novel low affinity carbohydrate binding module (CBM) specific for soluble mannan and displays the highest catalytic efficiency reported to date for a GH5 mannanase owing to a very high kcat (1828 ± 87 s-1) and a low Km (1.58 ± 0.23 g · L-1) using locust bean galactomannan as substrate. The novel CBM of BlMan5_8 mediates increased binding to soluble mannan based on affinity electrophoresis. Surface plasmon resonance analysis confirmed the binding of the CBM10 to manno-oligosaccharides, albeit with slightly lower affinity than the catalytic module of the enzyme. This is the first example of a low-affinity mannan-specific CBM, which forms a subfamily of CBM10 together with close homologs present only in mannanases. Members of this new subfamily lack an aromatic residue mediating binding to insoluble cellulose in canonical CBM10 members consistent with the observed low mannan affinity. Conclusion BlMan5_8 is evolved for efficient deconstruction of soluble mannans, which is reflected by an exceptionally low Km and the presence of an atypical low affinity CBM, which increases binding to specifically to soluble mannan while causing minimal decrease in catalytic efficiency as opposed to enzymes with canonical mannan binding modules. These features highlight fine tuning of catalytic and binding properties to support specialization towards a preferred substrate, which is likely to confer an advantage in the adaptation to competitive ecological niches.

Glycosynthesis in a waterworld: new insight into the molecular basis of transglycosylation in retaining glycoside hydrolases. Biochem J 2015; 467:17-35.

Abstract
Carbohydrates are ubiquitous in Nature and play vital roles in many biological systems. Therefore the synthesis of carbohydrate-based compounds is of considerable interest for both research and commercial purposes. However, carbohydrates are challenging, due to the large number of sugar subunits and the multiple ways in which these can be linked together. Therefore, to tackle the challenge of glycosynthesis, chemists are increasingly turning their attention towards enzymes, which are exquisitely adapted to the intricacy of these biomolecules. In Nature, glycosidic linkages are mainly synthesized by Leloir glycosyltransferases, but can result from the action of non-Leloir transglycosylases or phosphorylases. Advantageously for chemists, non-Leloir transglycosylases are glycoside hydrolases, enzymes that are readily available and exhibit a wide range of substrate specificities. Nevertheless, non-Leloir transglycosylases are unusual glycoside hydrolases in as much that they efficiently catalyse the formation of glycosidic bonds, whereas most glycoside hydrolases favour the mechanistically related hydrolysis reaction. Unfortunately, because non-Leloir transglycosylases are almost indistinguishable from their hydrolytic counterparts, it is unclear how these enzymes overcome the ubiquity of water, thus avoiding the hydrolytic reaction. Without this knowledge, it is impossible to rationally design non-Leloir transglycosylases using the vast diversity of glycoside hydrolases as protein templates. In this critical review, a careful analysis of literature data describing non-Leloir transglycosylases and their relationship to glycoside hydrolase counterparts is used to clarify the state of the art knowledge and to establish a new rational basis for the engineering of glycoside hydrolases.

Abstract
β-Mannanases are involved in the conversion and modification of mannan-based saccharides. Using a retaining mechanism, they can, in addition to hydrolysis, also potentially perform transglycosylation reactions, synthesizing new glyco-conjugates. Transglycosylation has been reported for β-mannanases in GH5 and GH113. However, although they share the same fold and catalytic mechanism, there may be differences in the enzymes’ ability to perform transglycosylation. Three GH5 β-mannanases from Aspergillus nidulans, AnMan5A, AnMan5B and AnMan5C, which belong to subfamily GH5_7 were studied. Comparative studies, including the GH5_7 TrMan5A from Trichoderma reesei, showed some differences between the enzymes. All the enzymes could perform transglycosylation but AnMan5B stood out in generating comparably higher amounts of transglycosylation products when incubated with manno-oligosaccharides. In addition, AnMan5B did not use alcohols as acceptor, which was also different compared to the other three β-mannanases. In order to map the preferred binding of manno-oligosaccharides, incubations were performed in H218O. AnMan5B in contrary to the other enzymes did not generate any 18O-labelled products. This further supported the idea that AnMan5B potentially prefers to use saccharides as acceptor instead of water. A homology model of AnMan5B showed a non-conserved Trp located in subsite +2, not present in the other studied enzymes. Strong aglycone binding seems to be important for transglycosylation with saccharides. Depending on the application, it is important to select the right enzyme.

Abstract
The Gram-positive bacterium Paenibacillus sp. JDR-2 (PbJDR2) has been shown to have novel properties in the utilization of the abundant but chemically complex hemicellulosic sugar glucuronoxylan. Xylanase A1 of PbJDR2 (PbXynA1) has been implicated in an efficient process in which extracellular depolymerization of this polysaccharide is coupled to assimilation and intracellular metabolism. PbXynA1is a 154kDa cell wall anchored multimodular glycosyl hydrolase family 10 (GH10) xylanase. In this work, the 38kDa catalytic module of PbXynA1 has been structurally characterized revealing several new features not previously observed in structures of GH10 xylanases. These features are thought to facilitate hydrolysis of highly substituted, chemically complex xylans that may be the form found in close proximity to the cell wall of PbJDR2, an organism shown to have a preference for growth on polymeric glucuronoxylan.

Abstract
A direct mass spectrometric approach was used for the determination of steady-state kinetic parameters, the turnover number (k(cat)), the Michaelis constant (K(M)), and the specificity constant (k(cat)/K(M)) for an enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of xylooligosaccharides. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry was performed to observe product distributions and to determine k(cat), K(M), and k(cat)/K(M) values for Trichoderma reesei endo-1,4-beta-xylanase II (TRX II) with xylohexaose (Xyl(6)), xylopentaose (Xyl(5)), xylotetraose (Xyl(4)), and xylotriose (Xyl(3)) as substrates. The determined k(cat)/K(M) values (0.93, 0.37, 0.027, and 0.00015 microM(-1) s(-1), respectively) indicated that Xyl(6) was the most preferred substrate of TRX II. In addition, the obtained K(M) value for Xyl(5) (136 microM) was roughly twice as high as that for Xyl(6) (73 microM), suggesting that at least six putative subsites contribute to the substrate binding in the active site of TRX II. Previous mass spectrometric assays for enzyme kinetics have been used mostly in the case of reactions that result in a transfer of acidic groups (e.g., phosphate) into neutral oligosaccharides giving rise to negatively charged products. Here we demonstrate that such analysis is also feasible in the case of neutral underivatized oligosaccharides. Implications of the results for the catalytic mechanism of TRX II in particular are discussed.

Abstract
Mode of action of endo-beta-1,4-xylanases (EXs) of glycoside hydrolase families 10 (GH-10) and 11 (GH-11) was examined on various acidic xylooligosaccharides. As expected, none of the enzymes of GH-10 cleaved aldotetraouronic acid (MeGlcA3Xyl3), which is the shortest acidic product of the action of these EXs on glucuronoxylan. Surprisingly, aldopentaouronic acid (MeGlcA3Xyl4) was also not attacked. Only aldohexaouronic acid (MeGlcA3Xyl5) served as a substrate and was cleaved to xylobiose and aldotetraouronic acid. These results suggested that binding of xylopyranosyl residue in the -2 subsite is prerequisite for cleavage of the linkage adjacent to the xylopyranosyl unit carrying MeGlcA. EXs of family GH-11 cleaved neither aldotetraouronic acid, nor aldopentaouronic acid, which is in agreement with their action on glucuronoxylan. Aldohexaouronic acid was cleaved to aldopentaouronic acid and xylobiose without any production of xylose, suggesting that a xylosyl transfer reaction is involved in the degradation of the substrate by EXs of GH-11.

Abstract
The role in activity of outer regions in the substrate binding cleft in alpha-amylases is illustrated by mutational analysis of Tyr(105) and Thr(212) localized at subsites -6 and +4 (substrate cleavage occurs between subsites -1 and +1) in barley alpha-amylase 1 (AMY1). Tyr(105) is conserved in plant alpha-amylases whereas Thr(212) varies in these and related enzymes. Compared with wild-type AMY1, the subsite -6 mutant Y105A has 140, 15, and <1% activity (k(cat)/K(m)) on starch, amylose DP17, and 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl beta-d-maltoheptaoside, whereas T212Y at subsite +4 has 32, 370, and 90% activity, respectively. Thus engineering of aromatic stacking interactions at the ends of the 10-subsite long binding cleft affects activity very differently, dependent on the substrate. Y105A dominates in dual subsite -6/+4 [Y105A/T212(Y/W)]AMY1 mutants having almost retained and low activity on starch and oligosaccharides, respectively. Bond cleavage analysis of oligosaccharide degradation by wild-type and mutant AMY1 supports that Tyr(105) is critical for binding at subsite -6. Substrate binding is improved by T212(Y/W) introduced at subsite +4 and the [Y105A/T212(Y/W)]AMY1 double mutants synergistically enhanced productive binding of the substrate aglycone. The enzymatic properties of the series of AMY1 mutants suggest that longer substrates adopt several binding modes. This is in excellent agreement with computed distinct multiple docking solutions observed for maltododecaose at outer binding areas of AMY1 beyond subsites -3 and +3.

Abstract
Microbial degradation of the plant cell wall is the primary mechanism by which carbon is utilized in the biosphere. The hydrolysis of xylan, by endo-beta-1,4-xylanases (xylanases), is one of the key reactions in this process. Although amino acid sequence variations are evident in the substrate binding cleft of "family GH10" xylanases (see afmb.cnrs-mrs.fr/CAZY/), their biochemical significance is unclear. The Cellvibrio japonicus GH10 xylanase CjXyn10C is a bi-modular enzyme comprising a GH10 catalytic module and a family 15 carbohydrate-binding module. The three-dimensional structure at 1.85 A, presented here, shows that the sequence joining the two modules is disordered, confirming that linker sequences in modular glycoside hydrolases are highly flexible. CjXyn10C hydrolyzes xylan at a rate similar to other previously described GH10 enzymes but displays very low activity against xylooligosaccharides. The poor activity on short substrates reflects weak binding at the -2 subsite of the enzyme. Comparison of CjXyn10C with other family GH10 enzymes reveals "polymorphisms" in the substrate binding cleft including a glutamate/glycine substitution at the -2 subsite and a tyrosine insertion in the -2/-3 glycone region of the substrate binding cleft, both of which contribute to the unusual properties of the enzyme. The CjXyn10C-substrate complex shows that Tyr-340 stacks against the xylose residue located at the -3 subsite, and the properties of Y340A support the view that this tyrosine plays a pivotal role in substrate binding at this location. The generic importance of using CjXyn10C as a template in predicting the biochemical properties of GH10 xylanases is discussed.

Abstract
The crystal structure of Pseudomonas cellulosa mannanase 26A has been solved by multiple isomorphous replacement and refined at 1.85 A resolution to an R-factor of 0.182 (R-free = 0.211). The enzyme comprises (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel architecture with two catalytic glutamates at the ends of beta-strands 4 and 7 in precisely the same location as the corresponding glutamates in other 4/7-superfamily glycoside hydrolase enzymes (clan GH-A glycoside hydrolases). The family 26 glycoside hydrolases are therefore members of clan GH-A. Functional analyses of mannanase 26A, informed by the crystal structure of the enzyme, provided important insights into the role of residues close to the catalytic glutamates. These data showed that Trp-360 played a critical role in binding substrate at the -1 subsite, whereas Tyr-285 was important to the function of the nucleophile catalyst. His-211 in mannanase 26A does not have the same function as the equivalent asparagine in the other GH-A enzymes. The data also suggest that Trp-217 and Trp-162 are important for the activity of mannanase 26A against mannooligosaccharides but are less important for activity against polysaccharides.
