Microbiology 154 (2008) 2719-2729 ; Bacillus subtilis produces alpha-l-arabinofuranosidases (EC 3.2.1.55; AFs) capable of releasing arabinosyl oligomers and l-arabinose from plant cell walls. Here, we show by insertion-deletion mutational analysis that genes abfA and xsa(asd), herein renamed abf2, encode AFs responsible for the majority of the intracellular AF activity in B. subtilis. Both enzyme activities we...
