FunFam 9270: Chitin deacetylase 1

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Chitin deacetylase. [EC: 3.5.1.41]
Chitin + H(2)O = chitosan + acetate.
  • Hydrolyzes the N-acetamido groups of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residues in chitin.

Pullulanase. [EC: 3.2.1.41]
Hydrolysis of (1->6)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in pullulan, amylopectin and glycogen, and in the alpha- and beta-limit dextrins of amylopectin and glycogen.
  • Different from EC 3.2.1.142 in its action on glycogen, and its rate of hydrolysis of limit dextrins.
  • Its action on amylopectin is complete.
  • Maltose is the smallest sugar that it can release from an alpha- (1->6)-linkage.
  • Formerly EC 3.2.1.69.
