In the new century, along with the change of cropping system in China , the efficient utilization of straw resource has become a prominent problem of social development. Rational designing and constructing efficient glycosidase system has been considered as the key to solve these problems. In this project, the genetic diversity and different distributions of GH5 subfamilty have been explored using metagenomics technology. With the construction of phylogenetic relationships among sequences and analysis of catalytic active architecture functional areas among different subfamilies, we can predict their covariability of residues/combination in fast evolution. Based on theoretical calculation analysis, we determine the properties and function of specificity determining residues/combination, clone related templates and mutant the related residues. Additionally, through the dynamic spectrum technology, micro thermal technology and fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (FACE), tracking and designing the reaction kinetics process of new enzymes revealed the new active architecture and the mechanisms of the fast function evolution of GH5 subfamily. This study is also helpful for the accuracy of metagenomic sequence function annotation and the success rate of protein engineering redesign. These results will provide the theoretical foundation to locate the composition and function of key enzyme components in high efficient biomass conversion systems, discover and design new enzyme components and new protein factors purposefully, and construct high efficient lignocellulose degrading enzymes for biorefinery industry.
