Sysname
1,3-alpha-isomaltohydrolase (configuration-retaining)
Reaction(IUBMB)
cyclobis-(1->6)-alpha-nigerosyl + 2 H2O = 2 isomaltose (overall reaction) [RN:
R11788 ];
(1a) cyclobis-(1->6)-alpha-nigerosyl + H2O = alpha-isomaltosyl-(1->3)-isomaltose [RN:
R11789 ];
(1b) alpha-isomaltosyl-(1->3)-isomaltose + H2O = 2 isomaltose [RN:
R11790 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
cyclobis-(1->6)-alpha-nigerosyl;
H2O [CPD:
C00001 ];
alpha-isomaltosyl-(1->3)-isomaltose
Product
isomaltose [CPD:
C00252 ];
alpha-isomaltosyl-(1->3)-isomaltose
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the bacteria Bacillus sp. NRRL B-21195 and Kribbella flavida, participates in the degradation of starch. The cyclic tetrasaccharide cyclobis-(1->6)-alpha-nigerosyl is formed from starch extracellularly and imported into the cell, where it is degraded to glucose.
