Extracellular pectin lyase (EC 4.2.2.10) was produced by Xanthomonas campestris in solid state fermentation. Solid state fermentation was carried out using 250 mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing 5 g wheat bran, 1% citrus pectin and 10 mL salt mixture that composed of 0.14% (NH4)2SO4 0.02% MgCl2 and 0.02% K2HPO4. Pectin lyase enzyme was purified 43 fold by using DEAE-cellulose anion exchange column chromatography and characterized. Molecular weight of the enzyme was determined as 77.5 kDa by using Sephadex G-100 gel filtration chromatography. Purification of enzyme was controlled by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature of enzyme was determined as pH 9.0 and 50°C, respectively. Pectin lyase was mostly stable 40°C for 24 hours. KM and Vmax were calculated respectively as 0.69 mg/mL and 3.84 |μmol/L∗min. Purified pectin lyase was inhibited by Fe+, Zn2+, Ca2+, Co2+ and Hg2+ except for Cu2+ and Mg2+ The purified pectin lyase enzyme was used for getting fruits juices. It was determined that yields of fruits juices improved when it was compared with control.
