CommentPectin methylesterase. The representative structure is BT1017 Q8A900 a methylesterases (6-O-methyl esterase)essential for pectin rhamnogalacturonan II metabolism from the gut bacterium Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. This family is exclusivly bacterial . Plant pectin methylesterase are not alpha/bet hydrolases. In many members C-term is DUF3826 a putative sugar-binding domain. Some members are close to Acetyl-esterase_deacetylase or Abhydrolase_7. Carbohydrate Esterase Family 19 (CE_19) of CAZY. This family is different of Pectin_lyase_fold Pectinesterase
