beta-galacturonidase (YesZ) from Bacillus Subtilis 168

yesZ The enzyme acts on the terminal end of side chains of Rhamnogalacturonan I Pectin, releasing the free galactose. This gene has been isolated from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis subtilis 168. The enzyme yesZ has beta-galactosidase (beta-galacturonidase) activity, cleaving (1→4)-β-D-galactans to produce single galactose molecules from RG I Pectin.

Usage and Biology Pectin is a component of the primary cell wall of plants. As galactose can be metabolized by the human body and by animals, it is an alternative to the usual target of nutrition/energy boosts in biotechnology, glucose.
