| Abstract | Acetyl esterase was produced by Streptomyces sp. PC22 at comparable levels of about 0.3 U ml$^{−1}$ using either 1.0% (w/v) birchwood xylan or 1.5% (w/v) corn husks as a carbon source and cultivating at 45 °C, at pH 9 for 3 or 2 days, respectively. The enzyme was purified from culture filtrate to about 54-fold purity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed by consecutive chromatography using a Macro-Prep DEAE, t-butyl hydrophobic interaction and hydroxyapatite, respectively. The approximate molecular weight of the purified enzyme was 155 kDa as analyzed by gel filtration, and it contained four identical 34 kDa subunits, as assessed by SDS-PAGE. It had K $_{m}$ and V $_{max}$ values for p-nitrophenyl acetate of 0.43 mM and 70.78 U mg$^{−1}$ and 7.8 mM and 1,027 U mg$^{−1}$ for α-naphthyl acetate, respectively. Its optimal pH and temperature were 6.5–7.0 and 50 °C, respectively. It was stable for 30 min at a broad range of pH values, from 5.0 to 9.0, and at temperatures up to 60 °C. The purified enzyme had no other xylanolytic activities. It showed cooperative action on birchwood xylan degradation, when used in combination with xylanase from the same strain and β-xylosidase from Streptomyces sp. CH7. Enhancement was 1.4-fold, compared to the expected amount of individual enzymes alone. This indicates that the enzyme has potential industrial applications, especially for utilizing renewable hemicelluloses containing acetyl xylan for the production of biofuels or other fermentation products. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
