Abstract:
An isolated polynucleotide molecule encoding a polypeptide having pectate lyase activity selected from the group consisting of:(a) polynucleotide molecules comprising a nucleotide sequence of nucleotides 82-1026 of SEQ ID NO: 7: (b) polynucleotide molecules that encode a polypeptide that is at least 90% identical to the amino acid sequence of residues 28-341 of SEQ ID NO: 8; (c) polynucleotide molecules that hybridize with the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:7 under hybridization conditions comprising 5Ã—SSC at 45Â° C. and washing conditions comprising 2Ã—SSC at 60Â° C.; and (d) degenerate nucleotide sequences of (a), (b) or (c).
