Polygalacturonase-Inhibiting Proteins Can Function as Activators of Polygalacturonase [PDF]
The interaction between fungal endopolygalacturonases (EPGs) and polygalacturonase-inhibiting proteins (PGIPs) found in plant cell walls has been well established. The typical EPG/PGIP interaction is characterized by high affinity, reversibility, and a 1:

Plants use identical inhibitors to protect their cell wall pectin against microbes and insects
As fundamentally different as phytopathogenic microbes and herbivorous insects are, they enjoy plant‐based diets. Hence, they encounter similar challenges to acquire nutrients. Both microbes and beetles possess polygalacturonases (PGs) that hydrolyze the

Insights into the Activity and Substrate Binding of Xylella fastidiosa Polygalacturonase by Modification of a Unique QMK Amino Acid Motif Using Protein Chimeras. [PDF]
Polygalacturonases (EC 3.2.1.15) catalyze the random hydrolysis of 1, 4-alpha-D-galactosiduronic linkages in pectate and other galacturonans. Xylella fastidiosa possesses a single polygalacturonase gene, pglA (PD1485), and X. fastidiosa mutants deficient

In this study, 34 molds showing pectin degradation activity were isolated from the soil of orchards, by several tests. By using these isolates, pectinase group enzymes; studies on pectin lyase and polygalacturonase production were performed in the batch

Although pear is one of the most preferred fruits globally due to its high nutrient content, its juice products have not received equal consumer acceptability due to their undesirable haziness and turbidity. However, enzymatic treatment of juice has been

Corn and common bean have been cultivated together in Mesoamerica for thousands of years in an intercropping system called “milpa,” where the roots are intermingled, favoring the exchange of their microbiota, including symbionts such as rhizobia. In this

Quantitative Genetic Analysis of Interactions in the Pepper–Phytophthora capsici Pathosystem
The development of pepper cultivars with durable resistance to the oomycete Phytophthora capsici has been challenging due to differential interactions between the species that allow certain pathogen isolates to cause disease on otherwise resistant host ...

Production of polygalacturonase by Aspergillus niger BC23 isolated from Irvingia gabonensis (African mango) fruit [PDF]
Polygalacturonase was produced from Aspergillus niger BC 23 which was isolated from spoiled Irvingia gabonensis fruit. The influence of carbon substrates on enzyme production showed that the medium containing sucrose produced a maximum enzyme ...

The pgip family in soybean and three other legume species: evidence for a birth-and-death model of evolution [PDF]
Polygalacturonase-inhibiting proteins (PGIPs) are leucine-rich repeat (LRR) plant cell wall glycoproteins involved in plant immunity. They are typically encoded by gene families with a small number of gene copies whose evolutionary origin has been poorly

Polygalacturonase is a valuable biocatalyst for several industrial applications. Production of polygalacturonase using the Aureobasidium pullulans stain isolated from Saharan soil of Algeria was investigated. Its capacity to produce polygalacturonase was
