EC 3.5.1.136     Relevance: 100%
Accepted name: N,N′-diacetylchitobiose non-reducing end deacetylase
Reaction: N,N′-diacetylchitobiose + H2O = β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + acetate
Other name(s): diacetylchitobiose deacetylase (ambiguous); cda (gene name)
Systematic name: N,N′-diacetylchitobiose non-reducing end acetylhydrolase
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the archaeons Thermococcus kodakarensis and Pyrococcus horikoshii, deacetylates the non-reducing residue of N,N′-diacetylchitobiose, the end product of the archaeal chitinase, to produce β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. This is in contrast to EC 3.5.1.105, chitin disaccharide deacetylase, which deacetylates N,N′-diacetylchitobiose at the reducing residue to produce N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→4)-D-glucosamine.

Similar chondroitin synthase ’co-polymerases’ can be found in Pasteurella multocida and Escherichia coli.

EC 3.2.1.169     Relevance: 98.6%
Accepted name: protein O-GlcNAcase
Reaction: (1) [protein]-3-O-(N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl)-L-serine + H2O = [protein]-L-serine + N-acetyl-D-glucosamine
(2) [protein]-3-O-(N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl)-L-theronine + H2O = [protein]-L-threonine + N-acetyl-D-glucosamine
Other name(s): OGA; glycoside hydrolase O-GlcNAcase; O-GlcNAcase; BtGH84; O-GlcNAc hydrolase
Systematic name: [protein]-3-O-(N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl)-L-serine/threonine N-acetylglucosaminyl hydrolase
Comments: Within higher eukaryotes post-translational modification of protein serines/threonines with N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is dynamic, inducible and abundant, regulating many cellular processes by interfering with protein phosphorylation. EC 2.4.1.255 (protein O-GlcNAc transferase) transfers GlcNAc onto substrate proteins and EC 3.2.1.169 (protein O-GlcNAcase) cleaves GlcNAc from the modified proteins.

EC 3.2.1.214     Relevance: 98.2%
Accepted name: exo β-1,2-glucooligosaccharide sophorohydrolase (non-reducing end)
Reaction: [(1→2)-β-D-glucosyl]n + H2O = sophorose + [(1→2)-β-D-glucosyl]n-2
Glossary: sophorose = β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-D-glucopyranose
Systematic name: exo (1→2)-β-D-glucooligosaccharide sophorohydrolase (non-reducing end)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Parabacteroides distasonis, specifically hydrolyses (1→2)-β-D-glucooligosaccharides to sophorose. The best substrates are the tetra- and pentasaccharides. The enzyme is not able to cleave the trisaccharide, and activity with longer linear (1→2)-β-D-glucans is quite low. This enzyme acts in exo mode and is not able to hydrolyse cyclic (1→2)-β-D-glucans.

EC 3.5.1.105     Relevance: 97.7%
Accepted name: chitin disaccharide deacetylase
Reaction: N,N′-diacetylchitobiose + H2O = N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→4)-D-glucosamine + acetate
Glossary: N,N′-diacetylchitobiose = N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-(1→4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine
Other name(s): chitobiose amidohydolase; COD; chitin oligosaccharide deacetylase; chitin oligosaccharide amidohydolase; 2-(acetylamino)-4-O-[2-(acetylamino)-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranosyl]-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose acetylhydrolase
Systematic name: N,N′-diacetylchitobiose acetylhydrolase
Comments: Chitin oligosaccharide deacetylase is a key enzyme in the chitin catabolic cascade of chitinolytic Vibrio strains. Besides being a nutrient, the heterodisaccharide product 4-O-(N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl)-D-glucosamine is a unique inducer of chitinase production in Vibrio parahemolyticus [2]. In contrast to EC 3.5.1.41 (chitin deacetylase) this enzyme is specific for the chitin disaccharide [1,3]. It also deacetylates the chitin trisaccharide with lower efficiency [3]. No activity with higher polymers of GlcNAc [1,3].

Comments: Involved in the biosynthesis of chondroitin and dermatan sulfate. The human chondroitin synthetase is a bifunctional glycosyltransferase, which has the 3-β-glucuronosyltransferase and 4-β-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.175) activities required for the synthesis of the chondroitin sulfate disaccharide repeats. Similar chondroitin synthase ’co-polymerases’ can be found in Pasteurella multocida and Escherichia coli. There is also another human protein with apparently only the 3-β-glucuronosyltransferase activity.

Systematic name: ginsenoside glucohydrolase
Comments: Ginsenosidase type I is slightly activated by Mg2+ or Ca2+ [1]. The enzyme hydrolyses the 3-O-β-D-(1→2)-glucosidic bond, the 3-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl bond and the 20-O-β-D-(1→6)-glycosidic bond of protopanaxadiol-type ginsenosides. It usually leaves a single glucosyl residue attached at position 20 and one or no glucosyl residues at position 3. Starting with a ginsenoside that is glycosylated at both positions (e.g. ginsenoside Rb1, Rb2, Rb3, Rc or Rd), the most common products are ginsenoside F2 and ginsenoside C-K, with low amounts of ginsenoside Rh2.

Systematic name: UDP-N-acetyl-α-D-glucosamine:β-D-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-β-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: The enzyme, found in vertebrates, participates in the processing of N-glycans in the Golgi apparatus. The residue added by the enzyme at position 4 of the β-linked mannose of the trimannosyl core of N-glycans is known as a bisecting GlcNAc. Unlike GlcNAc residues added to other positions, it is not extended or modified. In addition, its presence prevents the action of other branching enzymes involved in the process such as GlcNAc-T IV (EC 2.4.1.145) and GlcNAc-T V (EC 2.4.1.155), and thus increased activity of GlcNAc-T III leads to a decrease in highly branched N-glycan structures.

Systematic name: protopanaxadiol-type ginsenoside 20-β-D-glucohydrolase

The enzyme usually leaves a single glucosyl residue attached at position 20, although it can cleave the remaining glucosyl residue with a lower efficiency. Starting with a ginsenoside that is glycosylated at positions 3 and 20, such as ginsenosides Rb1, Rb2, Rb3 and Rc, the most common product is ginsenoside Rd, with a low amount of ginsenoside Rg3 also formed.

Accepted name: delphinidin 3′,5′-O-glucosyltransferase
Reaction: 2 UDP-glucose + delphinidin 3-O-(6′′-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside = 2 UDP + delphinidin 3-O-(6′′-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside-3′,5′-di-O-β-D-glucoside (overall reaction)

Glossary: delphinidin 3-O-(6′′-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside-3′,5′-di-O-β-D-glucoside = ternatin C5
Other name(s): UDP-glucose:anthocyanin 3′,5′-O-glucosyltransferase; UA3′5’GZ
Systematic name: UDP-glucose:delphinidin 3-O-(6′′-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside 3′-O-glucosyltransferase
Comments: Ternatins are a group of polyacetylated delphinidin glucosides that confer blue color to the petals of Clitoria ternatea (butterfly pea). This enzyme catalyses two reactions in the biosynthesis of ternatin C5: the conversion of delphinidin 3-O-(6′′-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside to delphinidin 3-O-(6′′-O-malonyl)-β-D-glucoside-3′-O-β-D-glucoside, followed by the conversion of the later to ternatin C5, by transferring two glucosyl groups in a stepwise manner [1].

Accepted name: galactan endo-1,6-β-galactosidase
Reaction: Endohydrolysis of (1→6)-β-D-galactosidic linkages in arabinogalactan proteins and (1→3):(1→6)-β-galactans to yield galactose and (1→6)-β-galactobiose as the final products
Other name(s): endo-1,6-β-galactanase
Systematic name: endo-β-(1→6)-galactanase
Comments: The enzyme specifically hydrolyses 1,6-β-D-galactooligosaccharides with a degree of polymerization (DP) higher than 3, and their acidic derivatives with 4-O-methylglucosyluronate or glucosyluronate groups at the non-reducing terminals [2]. 1,3-β-D- and 1,4-β-D-galactosyl residues cannot act as substrates. The enzyme can also hydrolyse α-L-arabinofuranosidase-treated arabinogalactan protein (AGP) extracted from radish roots [2,3]. AGPs are thought to be involved in many physiological events, such as cell division, cell expansion and cell death [3].
