Polygalacturonase secreted by yeasts from Brazilian semi-arid environments

Abstract: Microbial pectinolytic enzymes are known to play a commercially important role in a number of industrial processes. The objective of this study was to investigate the extracellular polygalacturonases of yeasts isolated from Brazilian semi-arid environments. Among the 250 colonies tested, only 33 produced extracellular polygalacturonases: Aureobasidium pullulans (18 isolates), Candida boidinii (one isolate), Trichosporonoides sp. (three isolates), Kluyveromyces marxianus (one isolate), Cryptococcus liquefaciens… Show more

“…After streaking 48 h-old yeast cultures onto the surface of the medium, the plates were incubated at 28ºC for five days and then revealed by the addition of a solution of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (1 g/L), according to the procedure described by Oliveira et al (2009). Both activities were evident from the presence of a clear halo around the colonies.…”
