Corncob rich in arabinoxylan is an important raw material widely used in bio-refinery. Complete saccharification of arabinoxylan depends on the synergism of different enzymes including α-L-arabinofuranosidase (ABF). This study aimed to investigate the functional characteristics of a new ABF EpABF62A belonging to glycoside hydrolase (GH) 62 family from the fungus Eupenicillium parvum, and to explore its potential in the saccharification of corncob arabinoxylan. The recombinant EpABF62A showed high activity against wheat arabinoxylan and rye arabinoxylan, with the optimal temperature of 55 °C and pH of 4.5. The protein contains an N-terminal cellulose-binding domain family 1 (CBM_1) domain, and displayed a 59.5% absorption rate to phosphoric acid swollen cellulose. Regioselectivity analysis indicated that the enzyme selectively removed α-1,2 or α-1,3 linked arabinofuranosyl residues on mono-substituted xylose residues on arabinoxylan. Corncob arabinoxylans (CAX1 or CAX2) with different (low or high) branching degrees were extracted from the raw material by alkaline hydrogen peroxide pretreatment and graded ethanol precipitation. Single EpABF62A removed 69.5% or 67.1% arabinose from CAX1 or CAX2, respectively. EpABF62A combined with a GH10 xylanase, a GH43 β-D-xylosidase and a GH67 α-glucuronidase released 75.0% or 64.5% xylose from CAX1 or CAX2, respectively. The addition of the four hemicellulases enhanced the saccharification the solid fraction of the pretreated corncob by the commercial cellulase Cellic® CTec2, and the conversion ratios of glucose, xylose and arabinose were up to 94.0%, 91.8% and 82.6%, respectively.
