Purification and characterization of an alkaline pectin lyase from Aspergillus flavus

TLDR
An alkaline pectin lyase secreted by Aspergillus flavus MTCC 7589 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity using ammonium sulphate fractionation, anion exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose and gel filtration chromatography in order to show efficacy in retting of Crotalaria juncea fibers.

Purification, characterization and retting of Crotolaria juncea fibres by an alkaline pectin lyase from Fusarium oxysporum MTCC 1755

TL;DR: The purified pectin lyase was found suitable for retting of Crotolaria juncea fiber and was found to be highly stimulated by Ca2+ ions while sugars like mannitol and sorbitol, and salts like NaCl and CaCl2 enhanced the thermostability.
