Type: | Domain | Name: | Rhamnogalacturonan lyase, domain III |
Description: | This is domain III of rhamnogalacturonan lyase (RG-lyase). The full-length protein specifically recognises and cleaves alpha-1,4 glycosidic bonds between l-rhamnose and d-galacturonic acids in the backbone of rhamnogalacturonan-I, a major component of the plant cell wall polysaccharide, pectin. This domain possesses a jelly roll beta-sandwich fold structurally homologous to carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs), and it carries two sulfate ions and a hexa-coordinated calcium ion []. | Short Name: | RG-lyase_III |
