Improvement of optimum pH and specific activity of pectate lyase from Bacillus RN.1 using loop replacement

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Background: Alkaline pectate lyase plays an important role in papermaking, biological refining and wastewater treatment, but its industrial applications are largely limited owing to its low activity and poor alkali resistance.Methods: The alkaline ...

First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.

Pectin-Degrading Enzymes during Soursop (Annona muricata L.) Fruit Ripening: A Bioinformatics Approach

Horticulturae, 2023
The rapid ripening of soursop (Annona muricata L.) fruits is owing to its high respiration rate. Several enzymes affect the fruit cell wall in this process, resulting in the depolymerization of pectin primarily in the homogalacturonan.

Degradable versus inert microplastics: Effects on soil organic carbon persistence via microbial drivers in an agroecosystem

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in terrestrial ecosystems, raising global concerns that they may disrupt soil organic carbon (SOC) cycling and undermine agroecosystem contributions to climate mitigation.

Fruit softening: demonstration of in-vivo pectate lyase and rhamnogalacturonan lyase action [PDF]

, 2022
The programmed softening that occurs during fruit development requires scission of wall and/or middle lamella polysaccharides, especially pectin. Proposed mechanisms include the action of cell-wall enzymes [e.g.

The pectate lyase FlPL1 fine-tunes jasmonate/auxin homeostasis to maintain symbiotic colonization by the endophytic fungus Fusarium lateritium

Mycology
While pectate lyases are crucial for pathogen colonization via pectin degradation, their roles in endophytic fungi remain largely unexplored. This study characterizes FlPL1, a pectate lyase from the endophyte Fusarium lateritium.

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

FcMAPK4‐phosphorylated FcNOR activates FcERF5 to promote fig fruit softening through activation of FcPG12 expression

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In Ficus carica fruit, the MAP kinase FcMAPK4 phosphorylates the NAC transcription factor FcNOR, which cooperates with ethylene response factor FcERF5 to activate the pectin degradation gene FcPG12, thereby promoting rapid softening of fig fruit. ABSTRACT Rapid softening of fig (Ficus carica L.) fruit during ripening leads to extremely short shelf life;
