Native Aspergillus niger Pectinase

Pectolytic enzyme preparation produced from a selected strain of Aspergillus niger:contains mainly pectintranseliminase, polygalacturonase, and pectinesterase and small amounts of hemicellulases and cellulases. Pectinases hydrolyses pectin, which is a component of the cell wall. They may attack methyl- esterified pectin or de-esterified pectin. It is a source of pectinase activity, also containing cellulase and hemicellulase activities.Pectinase catalyzes the random hydrolysis of a-(1-4)- Dgalactosiduronic linkages in pectin and other galacturonans.
