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.Glycoside hydrolase family 2 comprises enzymes with several known activities: beta-galactosidase (); beta-mannosidase (); beta-glucuronidase ().Glycoside hydrolase family 20 consists of enzymes such as chitobiases and beta-hexosaminidases (), in which this immunoglobulin-like domain occurs at the C terminus [, ].This entry describes the immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwich domain that consists of seven beta-strands in two sheets with a Greek-key topology, although some members may have extra strands. This fold is found in domains of glycoside hydrolase families 2 and 20. The function of this domain is unknown. | Short Name: | Glyco_hydro_2/20_Ig-like |
