Petctinase is an enzyme from Aspergillus niger that is used in plant protoplast preparation to digest cell wall prior to organelle isolation.

Pectinases are used to study their role in the invasion of plant tissues by phytopathogens, the spoilage of produce and various food processing and plant biotechnology applications.
