Simple Summary   Prevotella  is an abundant genus which plays an important role for lignocellulose digestion in goat rumen and is significant to the yield and quality of milk and meat in cows. In a previous study, we sequenced bacterial metagenome from Vietnamese native goat rumen to get 8.4 GB clean data and found very diverse genes related to lignocellulose degradation. However, due to the limitation in the metagenomic size, low amount of complete lignocellulase genes, and high bacterial diversity, further analysis was restricted. In this study, metagenomic deep sequencing was used to obtain 48.66 GB of reliable data, thus some lignocellulolytic enzymes were first seen and a picture of bacterial enzymes involved in lignocellulose digestion in the goat rumen was drawn. The loci for galactan-, xylan-, and arabinan-processing in  Prevotella  were observed for the first time. We confirm that  Prevotella  plays pivotal role for hemicellulose digestion and significantly participates in starch, cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin conversion in the goat rumen. A gene coding endoxylanase was expressed in  E. coli . The recombinant enzyme was tolerant with some salts, detergents, and had high activity, thus is a good candidate for lignocellulose processing and as an animal feed food additive to effectively improve xylooligosaccharide production.    Abstract  Bacteria in rumen play pivotal roles in the digestion of nutrients to support energy for the host. In this study, metagenomic deep sequencing of bacterial metagenome extracted from the goats’ rumen generated 48.66 GB of data with 3,411,867 contigs and 5,367,270 genes. The genes were mainly functionally annotated by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Carbohydrate-Active enZYmes (CAZy), and HMMER database, and taxonomically classified by MEGAN. As a result, 65,554 genes encoding for 30 enzymes/proteins related to lignocellulose conversion were exploited, in which nine enzymes were seen for the first time in goat rumen.  Prevotella  was the most abundant genus, contributing 30% hemicellulases and 36% enzymes/proteins for lignocellulose pretreatment, and supporting 98.8% of feruloyl esterases and 71.7% acetylxylan esterases. In addition, 18 of the 22 most lignocellulose digesting- potential contigs belonged to  Prevotella.  Besides,  Prevotella  possessed many genes coding for amylolytic enzymes. One gene encoding for endoxylanase was successfully expressed in  E. coli . The recombinant enzyme had high Vmax, was tolerant to some salts and detergents, worked better at pH 5.5–6.5, temperature 40–50 °C, and was capable to be used in practices. Based on these findings, we confirm that  Prevotella  plays a pivotal role for hemicellulose digestion and significantly participates in starch, cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin digestion in the goat rumen.
