            Almond emulsin fucosidase II
CLASS       Hydrolases
            Glycosidases
            Hydrolysing O-glycosyl compounds
SYSNAME     2-alpha-L-FUcopyranosyl-beta-D-galactoside fucohydrolase
REACTION    Methyl-2-alpha-L-Fucopyranosyl-beta-D-galactoside + H2O = L-Fucose
            + Methyl beta-D-galactoside
SUBSTRATE   Methyl-2-alpha-L-Fucopyranosyl-beta-D-galactoside
            H2O
PRODUCT     L-Fucose
            Methyl beta-D-galactoside
COMMENT     Highly specific for non-reducing terminal L-fuxose residues linked
            to D-galactose residues by 1,2-alpha-linkage.  Not identical with
            EC 3.2.1.111.
