BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
beta-(2->1)-D-fructan fructohydrolase
Reaction(IUBMB)
Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing (2->1)-linked beta-D-fructofuranose residues in fructans
Comment
Possesses one of the activities of EC 3.2.1.80, fructan beta-fructosidase. While the best substrates are the inulin-type fructans, such as 1-kestose [beta-D-fructofuranosyl-(2->1)-beta-D-fructofuranosyl alpha-D-glucopyranoside] and 1,1-nystose [beta-D-fructofuranosyl-(2->1)-beta-D-fructofuranosyl-(2->1)-beta-D-fructofuranosyl alpha-D-glucopyranoside], some (but not all) levan-type fructans can also be hydrolysed, but more slowly [see EC 3.2.1.154, fructan beta-(2,6)-fructosidase]. Sucrose, while being a very poor substrate, can substantially inhibit enzyme activity in some cases.
