Enzyme Information

4.2.2.10
Pectin lyase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q01172
Eliminative cleavage of (1->4)-alpha-D-galacturonan methyl ester to give oligosaccharides with 4-deoxy-6-O-methyl-alpha-D-galact-4-enuronosyl groups at their non-reducing ends.
-!- Favors pectin, the methyl ester, over pectate, the anion (which is the preferred substrate of EC 4.2.2.2).
