| Name |
kappa-carrageenase;
kappa-carrageenan 4-beta-D-glycanohydrolase
|
| Class |
Hydrolases;
Glycosylases;
Glycosidases, i.e. enzymes that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds
 |
| Sysname |
kappa-carrageenan 4-beta-D-glycanohydrolase (configuration-retaining)
|
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
Endohydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-D-linkages between D-galactose 4-sulfate and 3,6-anhydro-D-galactose in kappa-carrageenans
|
| Comment |
The main products of hydrolysis are neocarrabiose-sulfate and neocarratetraose-sulfate [5]. Unlike EC 3.2.1.157 (iota-carrageenase), but similar to EC 3.2.1.81 (beta-agarase), this enzyme proceeds with retention of the anomeric configuration.
