Pectin Lyase PelC-GFP
The PelC Pectin Lyase is originally from Paenabacillus amylolyticus. This particular pectin lyase is more specific to methylated pectin or homogalacturonan substrates rather than polygalacturonic acid [1]. This protein also works with both PelB (BBa_K3349001) and Pnl (BBa_K3349001) in this organism to effectively break down pectin. PelC has an optimal activity at 55°C and a pH of 10. The Km in in terms of 80% methylated substrates is 0.41 +/-0.06mg/ml. Calcium is a cofactor for this protein and is therefore necessary within the buffer conditions [1].
A GFP reporter was added onto the C-terminus. As well a C-terminal his tag was added to the GFP for nickel affinity purification.
