FunFam 64: Oligo-1,6-glucosidase

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
Alpha-glucosidase. [EC: 3.2.1.20]
Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing (1->4)-linked alpha-D-glucose residues with release of alpha-D-glucose.
  • Group of enzymes whose specificity is directed mainly toward the exohydrolysis of 1,4-alpha-glucosidic linkages, and that hydrolyze oligosaccharides rapidly, relative to polysaccharides, which are hydrolyzed relatively slowly, or not at all.
  • The intestinal enzyme also hydrolyzes polysaccharides, catalyzing the reactions of EC 3.2.1.3, and, more slowly, hydrolyzes 1,6-alpha-D- glucose links.

Oligo-1,6-glucosidase. [EC: 3.2.1.10]
Hydrolysis of (1->6)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in some oligosaccharides produced from starch and glycogen by alpha-amylase, and in isomaltose.
  • This enzyme, like EC 3.2.1.33, can release an alpha-1->6-linked glucose, whereas the shortest chain that can be released by EC 3.2.1.41, EC 3.2.1.142 and EC 3.2.1.68 is maltose.
  • It also hydrolyzes isomaltulose (palatinose), isomaltotriose and panose, but has no action on glycogen or phosphorylase limit dextrin.
  • The enzyme from intestinal mucosa is a single polypeptide chain that also catalyzes the reaction of EC 3.2.1.48.
  • Differs from EC 3.2.1.33 in its preference for short-chain substrates and in its not requiring the 6-glucosylated residue to be at a branch point, i.e. linked at both C-1 and C-4.
