In molecular biology, glycoside hydrolase family 88 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 88 CAZY GH_88 includes enzymes with d-4,5 unsaturated β-glucuronyl hydrolase activity. [8] [9]
