Pectin has bad effects on the sensory quality of cigarettes. In order to reduce the pectin content in tobacco leaves, polygalacturonase (PG) gene was extracted from  Aspergillus niger  sw06, and recombinant plasmid pPICZαA was constructed and transformed into  Pichia pastoris  X33 to build an engineered strain X33/pPICZαA-PG. Transformant genomic fragment was 1,608 bp. The genomic fragment was amplified and recovered, and sequencing indicated that PG gene expression have been successfully inserted into  P. pastoris  expression vector. Positive clones were detected by SDS protein with a molecular weight of about 60 kDa. The enzyme production cycle of the recombinant strain was 36 h, and crude enzyme activity was 2872.91 U/mL. The fusion protein was purified by nickel Sepharose affinity chromatography. A clear band was detected and the concentration of recombinant protein was 8.1 μg/μL. It showed a good effect on degrading pectin after addition of the PG crude enzyme produced by recombinant yeast on the tobacco pulp. The optimized addition amount on process product line was 0.8%, which could reduce tobacco pulp pectin from 3.65 to 3.01% and achieve a degradation rate of 17.53%. Sensory evaluation showed that the effect was better when the addition amount of pulping was 0.4%.
