Sysname
N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate exoamidohydrolase
Reaction(IUBMB)
(1) [N-(6-aminohexanoyl)]n + H2O = [N-(6-aminohexanoyl)]n-1 + 6-aminohexanoate [RN:R10975];
(2) N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate + H2O = 2 6-aminohexanoate [RN:R00059]
Reaction(KEGG)
R00059 R10975;
(other) R10979
Substrate
[N-(6-aminohexanoyl)]n [CPD:C20988];
H2O [CPD:C00001];
N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate [CPD:C01255]
Product
[N-(6-aminohexanoyl)]n-1;
6-aminohexanoate [CPD:C02378]
Comment
The enzyme is involved in degradation of nylon-6 oligomers. It degrades linear oligomers of 6-aminohexanoate with a degree of polymerization of 2--20 by exo-type cleavage, removing residues sequentially from the N-terminus. Activity decreases with the increase of the polymerization number of the oligomer. cf. EC 3.5.1.117, 6-aminohexanoate-oligomer endohydrolase and EC 3.5.2.12, 6-aminohexanoate-cyclic-dimer hydrolase.
