Abstract:Abstract:The main form of pectate hydrolases in the cell wall of parsley roots showed a unique substrate preference of a plant exopolygalacturonase because it clearly preferred the substrates with degree of polymerization about 10. This form was separated from the others, purified and characterized. Enzyme exhibited sharp pH optimum corresponding to pH 4.7, molecular mass 53.5 kDa, and isoelectric point 5.3. It was stable at 50• C in 2-h assay and had optimum of temperature at 60• C (activation energy being 37… Show more
“…b. Oligo galacturonate hydrolase This type of hydrolase enzyme is known to hydrolyze the substrate oligo galacturonates; this enzyme, in comparison to endo polygalacturonases, is secreted via autolysis [59]. c. Lyases Lyases are known to give rise to unsaturated products.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
