The β-1,4-xylosidases are from G. thermoleovorans IT-08 (Gthe; GenPept ABC75004; Xyl), G. stearothermophilus T-6 (Gste; GenPept AA98625; PDB 2EXH), C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824 (Cace; GenPept AAK81382; PDB 1YI7), B. halodurans C-125 (Bhal; GenPept BAB07402; PDB 1YRZ), S. ruminantium GA192 (Srum; GenPept AAB97967; PDB 3C2U), and B. subtilis subsp. subtilis str. 168 (Bsub; GenPept AAB41091; PDB 1YIF).

Root-mean-square deviations between Cα atoms of pairwise structural alignments of the β-1,4-xylosidases with the Xyl structure as template. The RMSD for Gthe β-1,4-xylosidase is the average RMSD between the Xyl•arabinose, Xyl•xylose, and Xyl•arabinose•xylose structures; for the other enzymes, the RMSD is the average RMSD of the superposition with all available sub-unit structures. The structural alignments were performed using the Secondary Structure Matching (SSM) server [31].

§ The N-terminal domain contains the amino acid residues equivalent to residues 1–304 of Xyl, while the C-terminal domain contains the residues that correspond to residues 310–511 of Xyl.
