3.2.1.206

Accepted name:

oleuropein β-glucosidase

Reaction:

oleuropein + H₂O = oleuropein aglycone + D-glucopyranose

Glossary:

oleuropein aglycone = methyl (2S,3E,4S)-4-{2-[2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethoxy]-2-oxoethyl}-3-ethylidene-2-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-5-carboxylate
oleuropein = methyl (2R,3E,4S)-4-{2-[2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethoxy]-2-oxoethyl}-3-ethylidene-2-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-5-carboxylate
ligstroside = methyl (2S,3E,4S)-3-ethylidene-2-(β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-4-{2-[2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethoxy]-2-oxoethyl}-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-5-carboxylate

Other name(s):

OeGLU (gene name)

Systematic name:

oleuropein 2-β-D-glucohydrolase

Comments:

Oleuropein is a glycosylated secoiridoid exclusively biosynthesized by members of the Oleaceae plant family where it is part of a defence system againt herbivores. The enzyme also hydrolyses ligstroside and demethyloleuropein.
