Purification and Characterization of Alkaline Pectin Lyase from a Newly Isolated Bacillus clausii and Its Application in Elicitation of Plant Disease Resistance

Abstract: Alkaline pectin lyase (PNL) shows potential as a biological control agent against several plant diseases. We isolated and characterized a new Bacillus clausii strain that can produce 4,180 U/g of PNL using sugar beet pulp as a carbon source and inducer. The PNL was purified to apparent homogeneity using ultrafiltration, ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow, and Sephadex G-75 gel filtration. The purified PNL was found to be a monomeric protein with a molecular weight of 35 kDa, as determined… Show more

“…Optimum pH of 8.0-8.5 have been reported from a number of microbial sources, viz., A. flavus, A. terricola, Bacillus clausii, Pythium splendens, P. oxalicum and Cystofilobasidium capitatum (Chen and Tseng 1998;Yadav and Shastri 2007;Nakagawa et al 2005;Yadav et al 2009Yadav et al , 2013Li et al 2012). Temperature optimum of the purified pectin lyase was determined to be 40°C, which is in the same range 40-60°C as reported in the literature for PNLs of Thermoascus aurantiacus, Aspergillus giganticus and Fusarium decemcellulare MTCC 2079 (Yadav et al 2014;Pedrolli and Carmona 2014;Martins et al 2002) but different from temperature optima of 35°C for PNL of Lasiodiplodia theobromae (Adejuwon and Olutiola 2007).…”

“…Inoculated plates were incubated at 37°C for 24-48 h for isolation and screening on the basis of different colony morphologies (diameter, shape, color, surface and spores). The genomic DNAs of the isolates were extracted, amplified and sequenced according to the methods described by Li et al (2012). The 16S rDNA sequence data of the isolates reported here have been submitted to GenBank nucleotide sequence databases with the accession numbers shown in Tables 2 and 3.…”
