Structural insights of two novel N-acetyl-glucosaminidase enzymes through in silico methods

Abstract: EndoBI-1 and EndoBI-2 are two endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase isoenzymes that cleave N-N'-diacetylchitobiosyl moieties found in various types of native N-glycans. These N-glycans are indigestible by human infants and adults due to the lack of responsible glycosyl hydrolases and they act as selective prebiotics for a probiotic microorganism, Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis in the large intestine. 2 The selectivity and the thermostability of EndoBI-1 and EndoBI-2 suggest that these enzymes may be useful fo… Show more

“…To date, only EndoBI-1 has been shown to be active in the gut of healthy breastfed infants colonized by B. infantis EVC001 (92), but both are likely to be expressed in vivo. Interestingly, EndoBI-1 and EndoBI-2 have different distributions among strains of Bifidobacterium found in infants compared to adults, which may further suggest the importance of these enzymes in healthy gut microbiome formation in both adults and infants (114).…”

“…It is also considered as heat resistant and shows activity during 95 °C heat treatments (Karav et al, 2015a;Karav et al, 2015b;Parc et al, 2015). These properties make EndoBI-1 ideal for several applications, especially for the food industry (Karav et al, 2015b;Parc et al, 2015;Şahutoğlu et al, 2020;Duman et al, 2021).…”
