ENTRY EC 3.2.1.103
NAME Keratan-sulfate endo-1,4-beta-galactosidase
Endo-beta-galactosidase
CLASS Hydrolases
Glycosidases
Hydrolysing O-glycosyl compounds
SYSNAME Keratan-sulfate 1,4-beta-D-galactanoylhydrolase
REACTION Endohydrolysis of 1,4-beta-galactosidic linkages in keratan
sulfate
SUBSTRATE Keratan sulfate
H2O
COMMENT Hydrolyses the 1,4-beta-D-galctosyl linkages adjacent to
1,3-alpha-D-N-acetyl-glucosaminyl residues. Also acts on some
non-sulfated oligosaccharides, but only acts on blood group
substances when the 1,2-linked fucosyl residues have been
removed (cf. EC 3.2.1.102).
