Aims: The cell‐surface display of Cex, which encodes xylanase and exoglucanase from Cellulomonas fimi, was constructed on Escherichia coli using PgsA as the anchor protein. Characterization of the cell‐surface display of Cex was performed. Methods and Results: PgsA was fused to the N‐terminus of Cex and six histidines were utilized as spacers between the targeting and anchor proteins. Successful cell‐surface display of Cex was demonstrated by Western blot and immunofluorescence analyses on E. coli C41 (DE3). According to the time‐course analysis, the xylanase activity of Cex was achieved at 49 U g−1 dry cell weight after 12 h culture at 37°C. The optimal temperature and pH ranges of the cell‐surface displayed protein with whole‐cell were broader than the corresponding ranges of the purified form. Further determination of thermostability indicated that the half‐life of cell‐surface displayed Cex was 1·6 times longer than that of purified Cex at 60°C. Conclusions: We have successfully developed the cell‐surface display of xylanase on E. coli. The cell‐surface display can enhance the stability of xylanase against changes in temperature and has the potential of becoming a whole‐cell biocatalyst for industrial applications, such as biobleaching of paper and production of renewable energy. Significance and Impact of the Study: The results demonstrated that the cell‐surface display of xylanase embedded in the cell membrane is more stable than that of the purified enzyme. Thus, to improve the stability of heterologous proteins production, cell‐surface display using the PgsA anchor protein as a tool can be considered in E. coli.
