In molecular biology, glycoside hydrolase family 31 is a family of glycoside hydrolases.
Glycoside hydrolases EC 3.2.1. 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 glycoside hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of >100 different families. [1] [2] [3] This classification is available on the CAZy web site, [4] [5] and also discussed at CAZypedia, an online encyclopedia of carbohydrate active enzymes. [6] [7]
Glycoside hydrolase family 31 CAZY GH_31 comprises enzymes with several known activities; alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20), alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22); glucoamylase (EC 3.2.1.3), sucrase-isomaltase (EC 3.2.1.48) (EC 3.2.1.10); alpha-xylosidase (EC 3.2.1); alpha-glucan lyase (EC 4.2.2.13).
Glycoside hydrolase family 31 groups a number of glycosyl hydrolases on the basis of sequence similarities [8] [9] [10] An aspartic acid has been implicated [11] in the catalytic activity of sucrase, isomaltase, and lysosomal alpha-glucosidase.
Glycoside hydrolases catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds in complex sugars. They are extremely common enzymes with roles in nature including degradation of biomass such as cellulose (cellulase), hemicellulose, and starch (amylase), in anti-bacterial defense strategies, in pathogenesis mechanisms and in normal cellular function. Together with glycosyltransferases, glycosidases form the major catalytic machinery for the synthesis and breakage of glycosidic bonds.
