Pectinmethylesterase (PME) extracted from tomato fruit was purified by affinity chromatography. A single peak of PME activity was observed, presenting a molar mass of 33.6 kDa, an isoelectric point higher than 9.3, and an optimal temperature and pH for activity of 55 degrees C and 8.0, respectively. The processing stability of purified tomato PME in buffer solution was compared to PME stability in tomato juice. In both media, thermal inactivation of PME presented first-order inactivation kinetics, PME in tomato juice being more heat-labile than purified PME. Regarding high-pressure treatment, tomato PME showed to be very pressure-resistant, revealing an outspoken antagonistic effect of temperature and pressure. To avoid cloud loss in tomato juice, a time-temperature treatment of 1 min at 76.5 degrees C was calculated in order to have a residual PME activity of 1 x 10(-)(4) U/mL.
从番茄果实中提取的果胶甲酯酶(PME)通过亲和色谱法进行纯化。观察到PME活性的单一峰,其摩尔质量为33.6 kDa,等电点高于9.3,活性的最佳温度和pH分别为55℃和8.0。将纯化的番茄PME在缓冲溶液中的加工稳定性与PME在番茄汁中的稳定性进行了比较。在两种介质中,PME的热失活均呈现一级失活动力学,番茄汁中的PME比纯化的PME对热更不稳定。关于高压处理,番茄PME显示出非常耐压,揭示了温度和压力之间明显的拮抗作用。为避免番茄汁出现浑浊损失,计算出在76.5℃下进行1分钟的时间-温度处理,以使PME残留活性为1×10⁻⁴ U/mL。
