| Accepted name: | arabinogalactan exo α-(1,3)-α-D-galactosyl-(1→3)-L-arabinofuranosidase (non-reducing end) | ||
| Reaction: | Hydrolysis of α-D-Galp-(1→3)-L-Araf disaccharides from non-reducing terminals in branches of type II arabinogalactan attached to proteins. | ||
| Glossary: | Araf = arabinofuranose Arap = arabinopyranose Galp = galactopyranose |
||
| Other name(s): | 3-O-α-D-galactosyl-α-L-arabinofuranosidase | ||
| Systematic name: | type II arabinogalactan exo α-(1,3)-[α-D-galactosyl-(1→3)-L-arabinofuranose] hydrolase (non-reducing end) | ||
| Comments: | The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Bifidobacterium longum, specifically hydrolyses α-D-Galp-(1→3)-L-Araf disaccharides from the non-reducing terminal of arabinogalactan using an exo mode of action. It is particularly active with gum arabic arabinogalactan, a type II arabinogalactan produced by acacia trees. The enzyme can also hydrolyse β-L-Arap-(1→3)-L-Araf disaccharides, but this activity is significantly lower. | ||
