Accepted name: |
1,6-α-L-fucosidase |
Reaction: |
Hydrolysis of (1→6)-linkages between α-L-fucose and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in glycopeptides such as immunoglobulin G glycopeptide and fucosyl-asialo-agalacto-fetuin |
Other name(s): |
α-L-fucosidase; 1,6-L-fucosyl-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminylglycopeptide fucohydrolase |
