KEGG   ENZYME: 4.2.2.25
Entry
EC 4.2.2.25                 Enzyme                                 
Name
gellan lyase
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-oxygen lyases;
Acting on polysaccharides
Sysname
gellan beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1->4)-D-glucopyranosyluronate lyase
Reaction(IUBMB)
Eliminative cleavage of beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucopyranosyluronate bonds of gellan backbone releasing tetrasaccharides containing a 4-deoxy-4,5-unsaturated D-glucopyranosyluronic acid at the non-reducing end. The tetrasaccharide produced from deacetylated gellan is beta-D-4-deoxy-Delta4-GlcAp-(1->4)-beta-D-Glcp-(1->4)-alpha-L-Rhap-(1->3)-beta-D-Glcp.
Comment
The enzyme is highly specific to gellan, especially deacetylated gellan.
