beta-glucosidase;
exo-1,4-beta-glucanase;
1,4-beta-D-glucan glucohydrolase
|
Class |
Hydrolases;
Glycosylases;
Glycosidases, i.e. enzymes that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds
|
Sysname |
4-beta-D-glucan glucohydrolase
|
Reaction(IUBMB) |
Hydrolysis of (1->4)-linkages in (1->4)-beta-D-glucans, to remove successive glucose units
|
Reaction(KEGG) |
|
Comment |
Acts on 1,4-beta-D-glucans and related oligosaccharides. Cellobiose is hydrolysed, but very slowly.
