Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
Hydrolysis of (1→6)-α-D-glucosidic branch linkages in glycogen phosphorylase limit dextrin
Systematic Name
glycogen phosphorylase-limit dextrin 6-α-glucohydrolase
Function
This enzyme hydrolyses an unsubstituted glucose unit linked by an α(1→6) bond to an α(1→4) glucose chain. The enzyme activity found in mammals and yeast is in a polypeptide chain containing two active centres. The other activity is similar to that of EC 2.4.1.25 (4-α-glucanotransferase), which acts on the glycogen phosphorylase limit dextrin chains to expose the single glucose residues, which the 6-α-glucosidase activity can then hydrolyse. Together, these two activities constitute the glycogen debranching system.
