Purification and characterisation of two pectinmethylesterase from persimmon (Diospyros kaki)

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1997
Two pectinmethylesterase isoforms, PME I and PME II, have been separated and purified from persimmon using chromatography techniques. Both isoforms presented differences in molecular weight (PME I: 51 kDa, PME II: 30 kDa), isoelectric point (PME I: 8-4, PME II: 6-9) and K(m) values (PME I: 54 μg ml-1, PME II: 31 μg ml-1). They differed in their optimum
