ENZYME entry: EC 3.1.1.73
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Feruloyl esterase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Cinnamoyl ester hydrolase. |
| Ferulic acid esterase. |
| Hydroxycinnamoyl esterase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| Feruloyl-polysaccharide + H(2)O <=> ferulate + polysaccharide |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamoyl
(feruloyl) group from an esterified sugar, which is usually arabinose
in 'natural' substrates.
- p-nitrophenol acetate and methyl ferulate are poorer substrates.
- All microbial ferulate esterases are secreted into the culture
medium.
- They are sometimes called hemicellulase accessory enzymes, since they
help xylanases and pectinases to break down plant cell wall
hemicellulose.
