Sulfate11
- The enzyme chondroitin-sulfate-ABC exolyase (EC 4.2.2.21) catalyzes the following process: Exolytic removal of Δ4-unsaturated disaccharide residues from the non-reducing ends of both polymeric chondroitin/dermatan sulfates and their oligosaccharide fragments. (wikipedia.org)
- The systematic name of this enzyme class is chondroitin-sulfate-ABC exolyase. (wikipedia.org)
- Two distinct chondroitin sulfate ABC lyases. (wikipedia.org)
- EC 4.2.2.4 acts on chondroitin sulfate A and C as well as on dermatan sulfate and slowly on hyaluronate. (lookformedical.com)
- EC 4.2.2.5 acts on chondroitin sulfate A and C. (lookformedical.com)
- Derivatives of chondroitin which have a sulfate moiety esterified to the galactosamine moiety of chondroitin. (lookformedical.com)
- Chondroitin sulfate A, or chondroitin 4-sulfate, and chondroitin sulfate C, or chondroitin 6-sulfate, have the sulfate esterified in the 4- and 6-positions, respectively. (lookformedical.com)
- DERMATAN SULFATE) is a misnomer and this compound is not a true chondroitin sulfate. (lookformedical.com)
- It differs from CHONDROITIN SULFATE A (see CHONDROITIN SULFATES) by containing IDURONIC ACID in place of glucuronic acid, its epimer, at carbon atom 5. (lookformedical.com)
- Proteoglycans consisting of proteins linked to one or more CHONDROITIN SULFATE-containing oligosaccharide chains. (lookformedical.com)
- Enzymes which catalyze the elimination of glucuronate residues from chondroitin A,B, and C or which catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfate groups of the 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-D-galactose 6-sulfate units of chondroitin sulfate. (lookformedical.com)
Enzymes2
- Enzymes which catalyze the elimination of delta-4,5-D-glucuronate residues from polysaccharides containing 1,4-beta-hexosaminyl and 1,3-beta-D-glucuronosyl or 1,3-alpha-L-iduronosyl linkages thereby bringing about depolymerization. (lookformedical.com)
- These enzymes catalyze the breakage of a carbon-oxygen bond in polysaccharides leading to an unsaturated product and the elimination of an alcohol. (lookformedical.com)
Dermatan1
- Characterization of oligosaccharides from the chondroitin/dermatan sulfates. (wikipedia.org)
Catalyzes1
- An enzyme that catalyzes the eliminative degradation of polysaccharides containing 1,4-beta-D-hexosaminyl and 1,3-beta-D-glucuronosyl or 1,3-alpha-L-iduronosyl linkages to disaccharides containing 4-deoxy-beta-D-gluc-4-enuronosyl groups. (lookformedical.com)
