It is a product of pectin degradation in plants, and is produced via the interaction between pectinase and pectin ( the latter being common in the wine-making industry ).
12.
During fruit ripening, pectin is broken down by the enzymes pectinase and pectinesterase, in which process the fruit becomes softer as the middle lamellae break down and cells become separated from each other.
13.
The enzymes alpha-galactosidase, lactase, amylase, lipase, protease, cellulase, glucoamylase, invertase, malt diastase, pectinase, and bromelain are available, either individually or in combination blends, in commercial products.
14.
""'Penicillium viridicatum " "'is a psychrophilic species of the genus of " Penicillium " which produces xanthomegin, xanthoviridicatin D, xanthoviridicatin G, viommellin, viridamine viridicatumtoxin, pectinase, penicillic acid and citrinin . " Penicillium viridicatum " can spoil grapes and melons.

How can I find diagrams for the listed Fungal enzymes please ? they are required for illustration purpose-- 195.93.21.103 11 : 03, 13 November 2005 ( UTC ); asparaginase, amylase, catalase, cellulase, dextranase, b-glucanase, glucoamylase, glucose oxidase, hemicellulase, laccase, lipase, pectinase, protease, rennet, tannase, xylanase
16.
Apart from its use in the pulp and paper industry, xylanases are also used as food additives to poultry, in wheat flour for improving dough handling and quality of baked products, for the extraction of coffee, plant oils, and starch, in the improvement of nutritional properties of agricultural silage and grain feed, and in combination with pectinase and cellulase for clarification of fruit juices and degumming of plant fiber sources such as flax, hemp, jute, and ramie.
