The enzyme removes branched oligosaccharides, containing preferentially four glucoside residues in the main chain, from xyloglucan molecules in a processive manner after the initial endo-type attack on a polysaccharide [1-5]. Hydrolysis occurs at either the unsubstituted D-glucopyranose residue in the main backbone and/or the D-glucopyranose residue bearing a xylosyl group [1-5]. The enzyme does not display activity, or shows very low activity, towards other β-D-glucans [1,2,4,5]. |
