ENZYME entry: EC 3.2.1.203

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/3.2.1.203

Accepted Name
carboxymethylcellulase
Alternative Name(s)
CMCase
Reaction catalysed
Endohydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-D-glucosidic linkages in (carboxymethyl)cellulose
Comment(s)
The enzyme from the acidophilic bacterium Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius is an endo-cleaving hydrolase that cleaves beta(1->4)- linked residues. However, it is specific for (carboxymethyl)cellulose and does not act on cellulosic substrates such as avicel.
