In this study, the first xylantic enzyme from the family Marinifilaceae, XynSPP2, was identified from Marinifilaceae bacterium strain SPP2. Amino acid sequence analysis revealed that XynSPP2 is a rare Fn3-fused xylanase, consisting of a signal peptide, a fibronectin type-III domain (Fn3), and a C-terminal catalytic domain belonging to glycoside hydrolase family 10 (GH10). The catalytic domain shared 17-46% identities to those of biochemically characterized GH10 xylanases. Structural analysis revealed that the conserved asparagine and glutamine ...
