LITERATURE

-
oligosaccharides produced by alginase may act as osmoprotective agents during the plant germination process. The relative root length of Brassica campestris L. increases with the addition of oligosaccharides with reduced degrees of polymerization. The oligosaccharides with lower degree of polymerization-values are effective in reducing the effect of salt stress on the activity of the superoxide dismutase and guaiacol peroxidase, and oligosaccharides with moderate degree of polymerization-values can reduce the increase in lipid peroxidation activities induced by salt stress

use of recombinant abalone alginate lyase and beta-1,4-endoglucanase for protoplast isolation from Laminaria japonica. In Laminaria japonica blades pretreated with proteinase K and incubated in artificial seawater containing alginate lyase and beta-1,4-endoglucanase, the protoplast number is increased up to 5000000 protoplasts/g fresh weight. These cells are mostly derived from the epidermal layer rather than the cortical layer. Results suggest that at least three enzymes, alginate lyase, cellulase, and protease, are essential for effective protoplast isolation from Laminaria japonica
