Pectins And Pectinases.
Pectins Are One Of The Classes Of Complex Structural Plant Cell Wall Polysaccharides.
They Are Localized In The Middle aLmwlla And Primary Cell Wall Of Higher Plants.
Pectins Have A Long-standing Use As Gelling Agents Whereas Their Enzymatic Degradation Or Modification Plays An Important Role In The Processing Of Agricultural Crops And The Manufacturing Of Foods And Beverages.
Progress In Pectin And Pectinase Researcg Has Been Most Prominent In Two Areas Over The Past 5 Years.
Ths First One Concerns The Analysis And Elucidation Of The Complex Chemical Structure Of Pectin And Identification Of Novel Enzymes Involved In The Degradation Of These Structurez.
The Second Area Concerns The Mode Of Action And The 3-dimensional Structu5e Of Various Pectin Degradijg Enzymes As Well As The Cloning Of A Large Number Of Genes Encoding Enzymes Involved In Pectin Degradation And Modification.
This Book Covers The Following Topics.
First The Structural, Physical And Chemical Properties Of Pectin Are Treated Followed By Information About Its Biosynthesis And About The Biological Effects Of Pectin And Its Degradation Products In Biological Systems So As Plant-pathogen Interactions And Human Nutrition.
Identification Of Nvoel Ehzymes, The Mode Of Action Of Different Pectinases And The 3-d Structure Of Bacterial Pectate Lyases Forms The Second Block.
This Is Followed By The Genetics And Rule Of Pectinase Biosynthesis In Saprophytic And Phytopathogenic Mic5obial Systems As Well As In Plant Systems.
For good, Developments In Pectin Manufacturing And Application Of Pectinases In Traditional (food, Beverage) And New Technologies Are Treated.
This Book Is Meant During Those Actively Involved In Fundamental And Applied Aspects Of Pectin And Pectinase Research But It Is Also Of Value For Those Interested In Plant Cell Wall Biosynthesis And Architecture, Phytopzthology, Food Technology And Human Food.
