In molecular biology, glycoside hydrolase family 4 is a family of glycoside hydrolases .
Glycoside hydrolases EC 3.2.1. are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycoside hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of >100 different families.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] This classification is available on the CAZy web site,[ 4] [ 5] and also discussed at CAZypedia, an online encyclopedia of carbohydrate active enzymes.[ 6] [ 7]
Glycoside hydrolase family 4 CAZY GH_4 comprises enzymes with several known activities; 6-phospho-beta-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.86 ); 6-phospho-alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.122 ); alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22 ). 6-phospho-alpha-glucosidase requires both NAD(H) and divalent metal (Mn2+ , Fe2+ , Co2+ , or Ni2+ ) for activity.[ 8]
