Abstract:
1. A Xylanase having a) the amino acid sequence set forth as SEQ. ID. NO: 4; b) the amino acid sequence having at least 90% homology with the amino acid sequence set forth as SEQ. ID. NO: 4; c) the amino acid sequence encoded by the nucleotide sequence set forth as SEQ. ID. NO: 3; or d) the amino acid sequence encoded by DNA hybridized with the DNA containing the nucleotide sequence set forth as SEQ. ID. NO: 3 in the strict condition comprising at least two washings in 0.1×SSC, 0.1% SDS at 65° C., which is identical in its function to the protein containing the amino acid sequence set forth as SEQ. ID. NO: 4; wherein the xylanase has the characteristics (i)-(iii); (i) molecular weight: approximately 65 KDa on SDS-PAGE; (ii) maximum activity in the range pH 5-pH 11; and (iii) maximum activity at the temperature of 50-60° C.
