Abstract Background The large Glycoside Hydrolase family 5 (GH5) groups together a wide
range of enzymes acting on β-linked oligo-and polysaccharides, and glycoconjugates from a …

Glycoside hydrolase family (GH) 16 comprises a large and taxonomically diverse family of
glycosidases and transglycosidases that adopt a common β-jelly-roll fold and are active on a …

In this work glycosyl hydrolase (GH) family 30 (GH30) is analyzed and shown to consist of its
currently classified member sequences as well as several homologous sequence groups …

The rapid rise in DNA sequencing has led to an expansion in the number of glycoside
hydrolase (GH) families. The GH43 family currently contains α-l-arabinofuranosidase, β-d …

Organization of glycoside hydrolase (GH) families into clans expands the utility of
information on catalytic mechanisms of member enzymes. This issue was examined for …

Glucose, xylose, and N-acetylglucosamine are elementary building blocks for disaccharides,
oligomers, and polymers, as well as key molecules allowing fine modifications of many kinds …

Enzymatic cleavage of the glycosidic bond yields products in which the anomeric
configuration is either retained or inverted. Each mechanism reflects the dispositions of the …

The regions surrounding the catalytic amino acids previously identified in a few" retaining" O-
glycosyl hydrolases (EC 3.2. 1) have been analyzed by hydrophobic cluster analysis and …

The diversity of oligo-and polysaccharides provides an abundance of biological roles for
these carbohydrates. The enzymes hydrolysing these compounds, the glycoside hydrolases …

This review deals with structural and functional features of glycoside hydrolases, a
widespread group of enzymes present in almost all living organisms. Their catalytic domains …
