Properties
Description
Recombinant Vibrio sp. alginate lyase produced by Escherichia coli, is responsible for plant cell wall decomposition by cleaving pectin through a β-elimination mechanism. It is produced in Escherichia coli.
Expression System
Escherichia coli
Purity
≥90%, determined by SDS-PAGE.
Buffer
35 mM NaHepes buffer (pH 7.5), 750 mM NaCl, 200 mM imidazole, 3.5 mM CaCl2, and 25% (v/v) glycerol
Applications
Recombinant Vibrio sp. alginate lyase can be used as a biocatalyst for the saccharification of alginate and participates in the eliminative cleavage of sodium alginate.
