Pectins extracted from a variety of sources and modified with heat and/or pH have previously been shown to exhibit activity towards several cancer cell lines. However, the structural basis for the anti-cancer activity of modified pectin requires clarification. Sugar beet and citrus pectin extracts have been compared. Pectin extracted from sugar beet pulp only weakly affected the viability of colon...
The physical structure of pectin extracted from fresh sugar beet has been examined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The images obtained reveal that these extracts contain a mixture of pectin polysaccharides and protein–pectin complexes. The AFM data demonstrate, for the first time, that these protein–pectin complexes consist of pectin molecules with protein attached to one end of the pectin chain.
