Article Abstract
Alkaline pectate lyase plays an important role in papermaking, biological refining and wastewater treatment, but its industrial applications are largely limited owing to its low activity and poor alkali resistance. The alkaline pectate lyase BspPel from RN.1 was heterologously expressed in BL21 (DE3) and its activity and alkali resistance were improved by loop replacement. Simultaneously, the effect of R260 on enzyme alkaline tolerance was also explored. Recombinant pectate lyase (BspPel-th) showed the highest activity at 60°C and pH 11.0, and showed significant stability over a wide pH range (3.0-11.0). The specific enzyme activity after purification was 139.4 U/mg, which was 4.4 times higher than that of the wild-type enzyme. BspPel-th has good affinity for apple pectin, since the and were 29 μmol/min. mL and 0.46 mol/L, respectively. Molecular dynamics simulation results showed that the flexibility of the loop region of BspPel-th was improved. The modified BspPel-th has considerable potential for industrial applications with high pH processes.

Ramie fiber, an exceptional natural textile material, requires degumming treatment to obtain spinnable mature fibers. Pectate lyase stands as the most effective enzyme for degumming by specifically removing pectin that binds multiple gummy components. However, commercial enzyme cocktails often contain cellulase activities causing significant fiber damage.

Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima [C. mollissima] Blume), an important nut crop with recalcitrant seeds and contributor to forest ecosystem services, faces challenges due to seed abortion, which seriously influences yield. In this study, stark microstructural and ultrastructural differences were observed between fertile and abortive seeds, with the abortive seeds exhibiting abnormal cell wall shapes and irregular thickening.

Pectate lyase (Pel3), an enzyme derived from bacteria, plays a significant role in the degradation of pectin and contributes to the spoilage of agricultural products. Pel3 can bind to pectin and break it down, a process that accelerates food decay. Aesculin, a natural compound extracted from walnut husk, has been recognized for its antibacterial and antifungal properties, making it a promising natural inhibitor.
