| Accepted name: |
glucan 1,3-β-glucosidase |
| Reaction: |
Successive hydrolysis of β-D-glucose units from the non-reducing ends of (1→3)-β-D-glucans, releasing α-glucose |
| Other name(s): |
exo-1,3-β-glucosidase; β-1,3-glucan exo-hydrolase; exo (1→3)-glucanohydrolase; 1,3-β-glucan glucohydrolase |
| Systematic name: |
3-β-D-glucan glucohydrolase |
| Comments: |
Acts on oligosaccharides, but very slowly on laminaribiose. |
