A methyl esterase from Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum reshapes the prebiotic properties of apple pectin by triggering differential modulatory capacity in faecal cultures. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
The activity of a purified pectin methylesterase, BpeM, from Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum, was experimentally validated through demetylation of highly methoyxylated apple pectin. The mathematical modelling of its activity enabled to tightly control the reaction conditions to achieve predefined final degrees of methyl‐esterification (DM) in the ...

Combining extracellular matrix proteome and phosphoproteome of chickpea and meta-analysis reveal novel proteoforms and evolutionary significance of clade-specific wall-associated events in plant. [PDF]

Plant Direct
Abstract Extracellular matrix (ECM) plays central roles in cell architecture, innate defense and cell wall integrity (CWI) signaling. During transition to multicellularity, modular domain structures of ECM proteins and proteoforms have evolved due to continuous adaptation across taxonomic clades under different ecological niche.

Nano‐preservation: An emerging postharvest technology for quality maintenance and shelf life extension of fresh fruit and vegetable

Food Frontiers, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 100-130, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Postharvest handling is an important approach to reduce loss and ensure the global supply of fresh fruits and vegetables (FVs). Recently, nanomaterials are increasingly recognized for their great potentials in extending shelf life and maintaining the quality of postharvest FVs owing to their unique properties and outstanding functions with ...

Edible Coating Formulated by Optimization from Aloe vera, Starch, and Arabic Gum Improved the Conservation of Banana (Musa acuminata) Fruits

International Journal of Food Science, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Banana is a very perishable climacteric fruit with consequence of large postharvest losses. The objective of the present study was to improve the postharvest shelf life of bananas. Fruits from the Melong locality were treated with coating solutions formulated with a mixture of Aloe vera, starch, and Arabic gum at different concentrations.

Polygalacturonase and Pectinmethylesterase Activities in Developing Highbush Blueberries [PDF]

HortScience, 1991
Polygalacturonase (PG, E.C. 3.2.1.15) and pectinmethylesterase (PME, E.C. 3.1.1.11) activities, berry size, and texture were measured in fruit of developing high-bush blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum L.).

Activity and Process Stability of Purified Green Pepper (Capsicum annuum) Pectin Methylesterase [PDF]

, 2004
Pectin methylesterase (PME) from green bell peppers (Capsicum annuum) was extracted and purified by affinity chromatography on a CNBr-Sepharose-PMEI column. A single protein peak with pectin methylesterase activity was observed.
