Pectin methylesterase (PME) was extracted from strawberries (Fragaria ananassa, cv Elsanta) and purified by affinity chromatography on a CNBr-Sepharose 4B-PME-inhibitor column. A single protein and PME activity peak was obtained. A biochemical characterization in terms of molecular mass, pI, and kinetic parameters of strawberry PME was performed. In a second step, the thermal and high-pressure stability of the enzyme was studied. Isothermal and combined isothermal-isobaric inactivation of purified strawberry PME could be described by a fractional-conversion model. Purified strawberry PME is much more stable toward high-pressure treatments in comparison to those from oranges and bananas.
从草莓(凤梨草莓,品种Elsanta)中提取果胶甲酯酶(PME),并通过在溴化氰-琼脂糖4B-PME抑制剂柱上进行亲和色谱法进行纯化。获得了一个单一的蛋白质和PME活性峰。对草莓PME的分子量、等电点和动力学参数进行了生化表征。第二步,研究了该酶的热稳定性和高压稳定性。纯化的草莓PME的等温及等温-等压联合失活可用分数转化模型来描述。与橙子和香蕉中的PME相比,纯化的草莓PME对高压处理更稳定。
