Enzyme Commission Number
EC 3.2.1.40
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products. Well-defined strains can be also provided for our clients to manufacture fermented products in a cost-effective way.
Features
Ready-to-use product, accelerating research progress, enhancing application performance.
Synonyms
α-L-rhamnosidase T; α-L-rhamnosidase N
Function
The enzyme, found in animal tissues, plants, yeasts, fungi and bacteria, utilizes an inverting mechanism of hydrolysis, releasing β-L-rhamnose. Substrates include naringin, rutin, quercitrin, hesperidin, dioscin, terpenyl glycosides and many other natural glycosides containing terminal α-L-rhamnose.

Fermentation
Unit Definition
One unit (U) of enzyme activity is the amount that leads to the release of 1 µmol of p-nitro-phenyl-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (pnpR) per minute
Reaction
Hydrolysis of terminal non-reducing α-L-rhamnose residues in α-L-rhamnosides
