Accepted name: |
kojibiose hydrolase |
Reaction: |
kojibiose + H2O = β-D-glucopyranose + D-glucopyranose |
Glossary: |
kojibiose = α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-D-glucopyranose |
Other name(s): |
kojibiase |
Systematic name: |
kojibiose glucohydrolase (configuration-inverting) |
Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized from the bacteria Flavobacterium johnsoniae and Mucilaginibacter mallensis, uses anomer-inverting mechanism to release β-glucose from the non-reducing ends of kojibiose and α-1,2-oligoglucans with a higher degree of polymerization. |
