Plant Polygalacturonases Involved in Cell Elongation and Separation—The Same but Different?
Plants, 2014 Plant cells are surrounded by the primary cell wall, a rigid framework that needs to be modified in order to allow cell growth. Recent data suggest that in addition to the cellulose-hemicellulose network, the pectin matrix plays a critical role in ...

Purification and characterization of tomato polygalacturonase converter [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1984 Extracts of ripe tomatoes contain two forms of polygalacturonase (PG I and PG II). A heat‐stable component that binds PG II to produce PG I has been isolated from tomato fruit. This component has been named polygalacturonase converter (PG converter). The PG converter has been purified by gel filtration, ion‐exchange chromatography and chromatofocusing.

AFRICAN JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL RESEEARCH, 2012 The present study is aimed to provide information on the abundance of natural foods of Salmo trutta macrostigma (T., 1954). Fish were captured from Uzungol Stream in Trabzon, Turkey between March 2009 and May 2010. It was investigated whether the dietary preferences of trout (S. t. macrostigma) change on account of seasons.
