[Demonstration of pectin-lyase in Bacillus subtilis]
Abstract:
After a screening performed on pectinolytic micro-organisms, a strain of B. subtilis was isolated. This strain has a pectic enzyme capable of beta-elimination on highly methylated pectin (degree of esterification = 85%), without the action of a pectinesterase. This activity corresponds to that of a pectin-lyase.
