Endohydrolysis of 3-O-methyl-alpha-D-mannosyl-(1->4)-3-O-methyl-D-mannose linkages within (1,4)-3-O-methyl-alpha-D-mannnan substrates
Comment
The enzyme, present in mycobacterial species that produce 3-O-methylmannose polysaccharide (MMP), is involved in recycling and biosynthesis of the polymer. The enzyme has been shown to cleave substrates in the range of 11--14 mannose residues.
