Abstract
Bacillus sp. AR03 have been described as an important producer of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) when growing in a peptone-based medium supplemented with simple sugars and/or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as carbon sources. This work aimed to identify the extracellular enzymatic cocktails through shotgun proteomics. The proteomic analysis showed that enzymes involved in cellulose and xylan degradation were among the most abundant proteins. These enzymes included an endo-glucanase GH5_2 and a glucuronoxylanase GH30_8, which were found in all conditions. In addition, several proteins were differentially expressed in the three evaluated culture media, indicating microbial metabolic changes due to the different supplied carbon sources, particularly, in the presence of CMC. Finally, the capability of the crude enzymatic cocktails from culture media to degrade birchwood xylan was assessed, which produced mostly xylooligosaccharides containing among 3–5 xylose units. Consequently, this work shows the potential of the extracellular enzymes from Bacillus sp. AR03 for producing emergent prebiotics.
