Protein Domain : Glycoside hydrolase superfamily IPR017853

Type  Homologous_superfamily
Description  O-Glycosyl hydrolases ( ) are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycosyl hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of 85 different families [ , ]. This classification is available on the CAZy (CArbohydrate-Active EnZymes) website.This entry represents the catalytic TIM β/α barrel common to many different families of glycosyl hydrolases found in all groups of organisms including viruses and Gene Transfer Agents (GTA) [ ]. In the GTA of Rhodobacter capsulatus (Rhodopseudomonas capsulata) a glycosyl hydrolase domain is associated with ORFg15 (RCAP_rcc01698) [, see Fig.1, in ]. Structures have been determined for several proteins containing this glycosyl hydrolase domain, including family 13 glycosyl hydrolases (such as alpha-amylase) [ ], beta-glycanases [], family 1 glycosyl hydrolases (such as beta-glucosidase) [], type II chitinases [], 1,4-beta-N-acetylmuraminidases [], and beta-N-acetylhexosaminidases [].
