High impact information on ATXYL1/XYL1

  • ARAf and XYL1 can also release D-Xyl from these substrates but less efficiently than XYL4 [1].
  • ARAf and XYL1 have highest specificity for p-nitrophenyl-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside and XYL4 for p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xylopyranoside and natural substrates such as xylobiose and xylotetraose [1].
  • These results show that AtXYL1 encodes for an apoplastic alpha-xylosidase active against xyloglucan oligosaccharides that probably also has activity against p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-glucoside [2].
  • AtXYL1 comprised three exons and encoded a peptide that was 915 amino acids long, with a potential signal peptide of 22 amino acids and eight possible N-glycosylation sites [2].
