Methyl de-esterification as a major factor regulating the extent of pectin depolymerization during fruit ripening : a comparison of the action of avocado (Persea americana) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) polygalacturonases
Pectinmethylesterase (PME, EC 3.2.1.11) and polygalacturonase (PG, EC 3.2.1.15) are known to operate in tandem to degrade methylesterified polyuronides. In this study, PGs purified from tomato and avocado fruit were compared in terms of their capacity to hydrolyze water-soluble polyuronides from avo...
