Glucuronan lyase
CLASS OF ENZYMES
EC 4.2.2.14; (1-4)-beta-D-glucuronan lyase
In enzymology, a glucuronan lyase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction of eliminative cleavage of (1->4)-beta-D-glucuronans. This produces either oligosaccharides with 4-deoxy-beta-D-gluc-4-enuronosyl groups at their non-reducing ends, or, if the substrate is completely degraded, glucuronans produce tetrasaccharides.
