2021
Cao, Lijuan | Zhang, Rui | Zhou, Junpei | Huang, Zunxi
β-1,4-Xylan is the main component of hemicelluloses in land plant cell walls, whereas β-1,3-xylan is widely found in seaweed cell walls. Complete hydrolysis of xylan requires a series of synergistically acting xylanases. High-saline environments, such as saline–alkali lands and oceans, frequently occur in nature and are also involved in a broad range of various industrial processes. Thus, salt-tolerant xylanases may contribute to high-salt and marine food processing, aquatic feed production, industrial wastewater treatment, saline–alkali soil improvement, and global carbon cycle, with great commercial and environmental benefits. This review mainly introduces the definition, sources, classification, biochemical and molecular characteristics, adaptation mechanisms, and biotechnological applications of salt-tolerant xylanases. The scope of development for salt-tolerant xylanases is also discussed. It is anticipated that this review would serve as a reference for further development and utilization of salt-tolerant xylanases and other salt-tolerant enzymes.
