Polygalacturonase in tree pollens [PDF]

Phytochemistry, 1991
Abstract The pollens from 38 species of trees were analysed for polygalacturonase activity. All of the pollens contained polygalacturonase but the range of activities was great. Eastern cottonwood pollen contained the most polygalacturonase, with a level about 12 times higher than that usually found in ripe tomato fruit, which has been the highest ...

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

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 2264-2284, July 2026.
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;

Role of Polygalacturonase in Bean Leaf Abscission [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1979
The role of polygalacturonase in leaf abscission was studied in explants of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Red Kidney. Bean polygalacturonase was partially characterized and comparisons were made between the bean enzyme and previously reported higher plant polygalacturonases.

Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4619-4639, July 2026.
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

Genome-Wide Identification of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) Polygalacturonases: Expression Analysis of Family Members and Total Enzyme Activity During Fruit Ripening

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is an important commercial fruit that shows a noticeable loss of firmness during ripening. Polygalacturonase (PG, E.C. 3.2.1.15) is a crucial enzyme for cell wall loosening during fruit ripening since it solubilizes pectin and

Structure‐informed engineering of plant–microbe interactions

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 1, July 2026.
SUMMARY This review critically evaluates how structural biology has enabled interface‐informed engineering of plant–microbe interactions, with a clear emphasis on the relative maturity of plant–pathogen research compared with symbiosis engineering. In plant immunity, atomic resolution structures of apoplastic receptors, host targets, and intracellular ...

Integrated transcriptome–metabolome analyses reveal regulatory networks underlying soluble solids accumulation in Capsicum chinense fruits

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 1, July 2026.
SUMMARY The Capsicum genus shows remarkable phenotypic diversity, making it an excellent system to study non‐climacteric fruit ripening. Unlike climacteric model species, such as tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), the regulatory networks linking transcriptome and metabolome to fruit quality traits remain poorly understood in non‐climacteric crop species ...

Textura de goiabas "Pedro Sato" submetidas à aplicação de cloreto de cálcio Texture of “Pedro Sato” guavas submitted to the application of calcium cloride

Ciência e Agrotecnologia, 2004
Entre as técnicas utilizadas para manter a qualidade pós-colheita de frutos, destaca-se a aplicação de cálcio, geralmente associada à refrigeração. No entanto, nem todos os produtores têm acesso a câmaras frias; portanto, objetivou-se neste trabalho ...

Safety evaluation of a food enzyme containing endo‐polygalacturonase and pectin lyase activities from the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus luchuensis strain NZYM‐XA

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme containing endo‐polygalacturonase (1,4‐α‐d‐galacturonan glycanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.15) and pectin lyase (1,4‐6‐O‐methyl‐α‐d‐galacturonan lyase; EC 4.2.2.10) activities is produced with the non‐genetically modified microorganism Aspergillus luchuensis strain NZYM‐XA by Novozymes A/S.

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme pectin lyase from the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus luchuensis strain CBS 141530

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The food enzyme pectin lyase (1,4‐6‐O‐methyl‐α‐D‐galacturonan lyase; EC 4.2.2.10) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Aspergillus luchuensis strain CBS 141530 by Solyve. The food enzyme was considered free from viable cells of the production organism. It is intended to be used in 12 food manufacturing processes.
