UGL (ambiguous);
unsaturated glucuronyl hydrolase (ambiguous);
gellan tetrasaccharide unsaturated glucuronyl hydrolase
Class

Glycosidases, i.e. enzymes that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds
Sysname
beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->4)-beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-D-Glcp beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp hydrolase
Reaction(IUBMB)
beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->4)-beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-D-Glcp + H2O = 5-dehydro-4-deoxy-D-glucuronate + beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-D-Glcp [RN:R09831]
Reaction(KEGG)
R09831
Substrate
beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->4)-beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-D-Glcp [CPD:C19965];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Product
5-dehydro-4-deoxy-D-glucuronate [CPD:C04053];
beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-D-Glcp [CPD:C19966]
Comment
The enzyme releases 4-deoxy-4(5)-unsaturated D-glucuronic acid from oligosaccharides produced by polysaccharide lyases, e.g. the tetrasaccharide beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->4)-beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-D-Glcp produced by EC 4.2.2.25, gellan lyase. The enzyme can also hydrolyse unsaturated chondroitin and hyaluronate disaccharides (beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->3)-D-GalNAc, beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->3)-D-GalNAc6S, beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp2S-(1->3)-D-GalNAc, beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->3)-D-GlcNAc), preferring the unsulfated disaccharides to the sulfated disaccharides.
