Biological function summary

This enzyme functions to degrade rhamnogalacturonan-I a component of pectin within the plant cell wall matrix. Endo-beta-16-galactanase operates as part of the larger pectinase complex which includes other enzymes like polygalacturonase and pectin lyase. Through collaboration within this complex the enzyme contributes significantly to cell wall modification and redevelopment during processes such as growth fruit ripening and plant senescence.

Pathways

Endo-beta-16-galactanase plays a role in the plant cell wall degradation pathway actively participating in remodeling plant structure and facilitating plant growth. It works alongside enzymes like endo-14-beta-glucanase which also modulate the structure of the cell wall. Additionally the enzyme plays a part in the carbohydrate biosynthesis pathway ensuring the cycling of sugars needed for energy and growth.
