Purification and characterization of<i>Thermobifida fusca</i>xylanase 10B
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Thermobifida fusca grows well on cellulose and xylan, and produces a number of cellulases and xylanases. The gene encoding a previously unstudied endoxylanase, xyl10B, was overexpressed in E. coli, and the protein was purified and characterized. Mature Xyl10B is a 43-kDa glycohydrolase with a short basic domain at the C-terminus. It has moderate thermostability, maintaining 50% of its activity after incubation for 16 h at 62 degrees C, and is most active between pH 5 and 8. Xyl10B is produced by growth of T. fusca on xylan or Solka Floc but not on pure cellulose. Mass spectroscopic analysis showed that Xyl10B produces xylobiose as the major product from birchwood and oat spelts xylan and that its hydrolysis products differ from those of T. fusca Xyl11A. Xyl10B hydrolyzes various p-nitrophenyl-sugars, including p-nitrophenyl alpha-D-arabinofuranoside, p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xylobioside, p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xyloside, and p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-cellobioside. Xyl11A has higher activity on xylan substrates, but Xyl10B produced more reducing sugars from corn fiber than did Xyl11A.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
