Polygalacturonase

Description:
Polygalacturonase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of polygalacturonic acid, a component of pectin found in plant cell walls. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the degradation of pectin during fruit ripening and in various industrial applications, such as fruit juice clarification and wine production. Polygalacturonase is classified as a glycoside hydrolase and is produced by various microorganisms, including bacteria and fungi. It exhibits optimal activity at specific pH and temperature ranges, which can vary depending on the source of the enzyme. The enzyme's activity can be influenced by the presence of metal ions and other additives. In terms of its biochemical properties, polygalacturonase is known for its ability to break down complex polysaccharides into simpler sugars, making it valuable in food processing and biotechnology. Its CAS number, 9032-75-1, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts. Overall, polygalacturonase is an important enzyme with significant applications in both natural processes and industrial settings.
