Black ribbon
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.

Description

Plant cell wall hydrolases generally have a modular structure consisting of a catalytic domain linked to one or more noncatalytic carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs). The majority of these CBMs interact with cellulose and are thus referred to as cellulose-binding domains or CBDs. CBM10s are small molecules, comprising only ca. 45 residues, that bind to insoluble forms of cellulose [E1]. CBM10s contain three tryptophan and two tyrosine residues which are completely conserved. The CBM10 domain is found in xylanases, mannanases and cellulases from aerobic bacteria and anaerobic fungi [1,2,3,4].

The CBM10 domain consists of two antiparallel β-sheets, one with two strands and one with three, with a short α-helix across one face of the three-stranded sheet (see <PDB:1QLD>) [2,4].

Some proteins known to contain a CBM10 domain are listed below:

  • Cellvibrio japonicus endo-1,4-β-xylanase A (xynA), endohydrolyses (1->4)-β-D-xylosidic linkages in xylans.
  • Cellvibrio japonicus bifunctional xylanase/xylan deacetylase (xyn11A), endo-acting xylanase which specifically cleaves internal linkages on the xylan backbone, releasing xylooligosaccharides.
  • Cellvibrio japonicus endoglucanase A (celA), endohydrolyses (1->4)-β-D- glucosidic linkages in cellulose, lichenin and cereal β-D-glucans.
  • Cellvibrio japonicus endoglucanase B (celB), catalyzes the endohydrolysis of 1,4-β-glucosidic linkages in cellulose, lichenin and cereal β-D- glucans.
  • Cellvibrio japonicus endoglucanase C (celC), endohydrolyses (1->4)-β-D- glucosidic linkages in cellulose, lichenin and cereal β-D-glucans.
  • Neocallimastix patriciarum (Rumen fungus) endoglucanase B (CELB), endohydrolyse (1->4)-β-D-glucosidic linkages in cellulose, lichenin and cereal β-D-glucans.
  • Neocallimastix patriciarum (Rumen fungus) bifunctional endo-1,4-β- xylanase A (XYNA), hydrolyzes xylans into xylobiose and xylose.
  • Piromyces sp. endo-1,4-β-xylanase A (XYNA), hydrolyzes 1,4-β linked polysaccharide backbones of xylans, one of the major hemicellulose components in hardwoods and softwoods.
  • Piromyces sp. mannan endo-1,4-β-mannosidase A (MANA), hydrolyzes 1,4- β linked polysaccharide backbones of mannans, one of the major hemicellulose components in hardwoods and softwoods.

The profile we developed covers the entire CBM10 domain.
