Application
Pectolyase from Aspergillus japonicus has been used:
- in the lysis of chlorella cells for protoplast generation
- as component of enzyme digestion buffer for Arabidopsis meiotic chromosome isolation
- to induce reorganization of Arabidopsis root cap cell architecture
Used in plant protoplast preparation to digest cell wall prior to organelle isolation. It is used in complex carbohydrate analysis. Product P3026 is provided in a lyophilized powder containing lactose. Product P3026 has been used to digest Crassula root tips prior to meiotic analysis.
Used in plant protoplast preparation to digest cell wall prior to organelle isolation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Pectolyase is used for protoplast isolation from plant cells. It also mediates ethylene hormone synthesis.
Pectolyase catalyzes the eliminative cleavage of a-(1- 4)-Dgalacturonan methyl ester to give oligosaccharides with 4-deoxy-6-O-methyl-a-D-galact-4-enuronosyl groups at their non-reducing ends. It contain two types of pectinase, endopolygalacturonase, endo-pectin lyase and a maceration stimulating factora.
Other Notes
One unit will liberate 1.0 μmole of galacturonic acid from polygalacturonic acid per min at pH 5.5 at 25 °C.
Reported to contain two types of pectinase, endopolygalacturonase (EC3.2.1.15), endopectin lyase (EC4.2.2.10) and a maceration stimulating factor.

How to dissolve the lyophilized powder of P3026 coded pectolyase powder? and how to prepare 0.8% solution of it?

Hello! I want to ask how much cellulase does the pectolyase (P3026) contains? It does not mention any contamination of other enzymes in the product description, but I want to know if there is any potential contamination involved.
1 answer-
This product is not tested for the presence of contaminating enzymes. The primary components are endo-polygalacturonase and endo-pectin lyase. A brief search of the literature shows that in protoplast isolation, cellulase is often added to the digest, in addition to pectolyase.
