Type: | Family | Name: | Glycoside hydrolase, family 63 |
Description: | O-Glycosyl hydrolases () are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycosyl hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of 85 different families [, ]. This classification is available on the CAZy (CArbohydrate-Active EnZymes) web site.This is a family of eukaryotic enzymes belonging to glycosyl hydrolase family 63 (). They catalyse the specific cleavage of the non-reducing terminal glucose residue from Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2). Mannosyl oligosaccharide glucosidase is the first enzyme in the N-linked oligosaccharide processing pathway. | Short Name: | Glycoside_hydrolase_63 |
