Basic Physicochemical Properties of Pectin from Underutilized Chili Peppers Subjected to Different Heating Regimes [PDF]
FoodsBrown Jalapeno peppers (BPs) are accidentally harvested and discarded at different points of the postharvest handling and processing lines because they are not visually attractive to consumers. Water-, chelator-, and alkali-soluble pectins (WSP, CSP, and

Pectins as Brakes? Their Potential Implication in Adjusting Mesophyll Conductance Under Water Deficit and Salt Stresses [PDF]
PlantsWater and salt stresses reduce net CO2 assimilation (AN) primarily by restricting stomatal conductance (gs) and mesophyll conductance (gm), while altering leaf structure, anatomy, and cell wall composition.

Pectin Methylesterases and Pectin Dynamics in Pollen Tubes [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2005 Pectic polysaccharides are an essential component of the primary plant cell wall. They are particularly prominent in pollen tubes, where they control the structure and yielding characteristics of the cell wall at the growing apex of these rapidly expanding cells. The properties of pectin meshworks,

Pectin Conformation in Solution [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2018 The interplay of degree of methylesterification (DM), pH, temperature, and concentration on the macromolecular interactions of pectin in solution has been explored. Small-angle X-ray scattering complemented by atomic force microscopy and molecular dynamics was employed to probe chain dimensions and solution structure.
