&amp;lt;!-- This is the end of the table --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Substrate specificities ==&lt;br /&gt;
The majority of the enzymes from this family hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between L-arabinofuranosides side chains of hemicelluloses such as arabinoxylan, arabinogalactan, and L-arabinan.  A few enzymes of the family exhibit β 1-4 endoglucanase activity towards carboxy methyl cellulose and xylan &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Eckert2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;
This is an example of how to make references to a journal article &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. (See the References section below).  Multiple references can go in the same place like this &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007 He1999&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  You can even cite books using just the ISBN &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  References that are not in PubMed can be typed in by hand &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;MikesClassic&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;
--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Kinetics and Mechanism ==&lt;br /&gt;
Family GH51 L-arabinfuranosidases are [[retaining]] enzymes and follow a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism.  Due to the fast mutarotation and tautomerization rates of arabinose, the stereochemical course of the reaction was determined in presence of methanol and followed by NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996 Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. Enzymes that have been well studied kinetically include the ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' α-L-arabinofuranosidases, for which a detailed kinetic study was performed including kinetics with aryl-α-L-arabinofuranosides bearing various leaving groups, Brønsted plots for the E175A acid-base catalytic residue and azide-rescue for the E294A nucleophilc mutant &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002b Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Catalytic Residues ==&lt;br /&gt;
The catalytic acid-base was first identified in ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' (Glu176) &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Debeche2002&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 (Glu175) α-arabinofuranosidases &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; using kinetic analysis, pH dependence profiles, and azide rescue of the catalytic mutant. The catalytic nucleophile was first identified in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' α-arabinofuranosidase through detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Three-dimensional structures ==&lt;br /&gt;
Three-dimensional structures for GH51 arabinofuranosidases are available for ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Hovel2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; ''[http://www.cazy.org/b514.html Clostridium thermocellum]'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Taylor2006&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Paes2008&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  The enzyme in solution is a hexamer (can be described as a trimer of dimmers) and each monomer is organized into two domains: a ‘clan GH-A’ catalytic (β/α)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;8&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; domain and a 12-stranded β sandwich with a jelly-roll topology.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Family Firsts ==&lt;br /&gt;
;First sterochemistry determination: ''[http://www.cazy.org/e535.html Aspergillus niger]'' and ''Aspergillus aculeatus'' α-L-arabinfuranosidases carried out in the presence of 2.5 M methanol and followed by &amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;1&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;H-NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- This is the end of the table --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Substrate specificities ==&lt;br /&gt;
The majority of the enzymes from this family hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between L-arabinofuranosides side chains of hemicelluloses such as arabinoxylan, arabinogalactan, and L-arabinan.  A few enzymes of the family exhibit β 1-4 endoglucanase activity towards carboxy methyl cellulose and xylan &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Eckert2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;
This is an example of how to make references to a journal article &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. (See the References section below).  Multiple references can go in the same place like this &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007 He1999&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  You can even cite books using just the ISBN &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  References that are not in PubMed can be typed in by hand &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;MikesClassic&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;
--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Kinetics and Mechanism ==&lt;br /&gt;
Family GH51 L-arabinfuranosidases are [[retaining]] enzymes and follow a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism.  Due to the fast mutarotation and tautomerization rates of arabinose, the stereochemical course of the reaction was determined in presence of methanol and followed by NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996 Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. Enzymes that have been well studied kinetically include the ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' α-L-arabinofuranosidases, for which a detailed kinetic study was performed including kinetics with aryl-α-L-arabinofuranosides bearing various leaving groups, Brønsted plots for the E175A acid-base catalytic residue and azide-rescue for the E294A nucleophilc mutant &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002b Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Catalytic Residues ==&lt;br /&gt;
The catalytic acid-base was first identified in ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' (Glu176) &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Debeche2002&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 (Glu175) α-arabinofuranosidases &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; using kinetic analysis, pH dependence profiles, and azide rescue of the catalytic mutant. The catalytic nucleophile was first identified in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' α-arabinofuranosidase through detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Three-dimensional structures ==&lt;br /&gt;
Three-dimensional structures for GH51 arabinofuranosidases are available for ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Hovel2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; ''[http://www.cazy.org/b514.html Clostridium thermocellum]'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Taylor2006&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Paes2008&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  The enzyme in solution is a hexamer (can be described as a trimer of dimmers) and each monomer is organized into two domains: a ‘clan GH-A’ catalytic (β/α)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;8&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; domain and a 12-stranded β sandwich with a jelly-roll topology.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- This is the end of the table --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Substrate specificities ==&lt;br /&gt;
The majority of the enzymes from this family hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between L-arabinofuranosides side chains of hemicelluloses such as arabinoxylan, arabinogalactan, and L-arabinan.  A few enzymes of the family exhibit β 1-4 endoglucanase activity towards carboxy methyl cellulose and xylan &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Eckert2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;
This is an example of how to make references to a journal article &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. (See the References section below).  Multiple references can go in the same place like this &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007 He1999&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  You can even cite books using just the ISBN &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  References that are not in PubMed can be typed in by hand &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;MikesClassic&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;
--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Kinetics and Mechanism ==&lt;br /&gt;
Family GH51 L-arabinfuranosidases are retaining enzymes and follow a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism.  Due to the fast mutarotation and tautomerization rates of arabinose, the stereochemical course of the reaction was determined in presence of methanol and followed by NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996 Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. Enzymes that have been well studied kinetically include the ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' α-L-arabinofuranosidases, for which a detailed kinetic study was performed including kinetics with aryl-α-L-arabinofuranosides bearing various leaving groups, Brønsted plots for the E175A acid-base catalytic residue and azide-rescue for the E294A nucleophilc mutant &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002b Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Catalytic Residues ==&lt;br /&gt;
The catalytic acid-base was first identified in ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' (Glu176) &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Debeche2002&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 (Glu175) α-arabinofuranosidases &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; using kinetic analysis, pH dependence profiles, and azide rescue of the catalytic mutant. The catalytic nucleophile was first identified in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' α-arabinofuranosidase through detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Three-dimensional structures ==&lt;br /&gt;
Three-dimensional structures for GH51 arabinofuranosidases are available for ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Hovel2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; ''[http://www.cazy.org/b514.html Clostridium thermocellum]'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Taylor2006&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Paes2008&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  The enzyme in solution is a hexamer (can be described as a trimer of dimmers) and each monomer is organized into two domains: a ‘clan GH-A’ catalytic (β/α)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;8&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; domain and a 12-stranded β sandwich with a jelly-roll topology.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- This is the end of the table --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Substrate specificities ==&lt;br /&gt;
The majority of the enzymes from this family hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between L-arabinofuranosides side chains of hemicelluloses such as arabinoxylan, arabinogalactan, and L-arabinan.  A few enzymes of the family exhibit beta 1-4 endoglucanase activity towards carboxy methyl cellulose and xylan &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Eckert2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;
This is an example of how to make references to a journal article &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. (See the References section below).  Multiple references can go in the same place like this &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007 He1999&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  You can even cite books using just the ISBN &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  References that are not in PubMed can be typed in by hand &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;MikesClassic&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;
--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Kinetics and Mechanism ==&lt;br /&gt;
Family GH51 L-arabinfuranosidases are retaining enzymes and follow a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism.  Due to the fast mutarotation and tautomerization rates of arabinose, the stereochemical course of the reaction was determined in presence of methanol and followed by NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996 Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. Enzymes that have been well studied kinetically include the ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' alpha L-arabinofuranosidases, for which a detailed kinetic study was performed including kinetics with aryl-α-L-arabinofuranosides bearing various leaving groups, Brønsted plots for the E175A acid-base catalytic residue and azide-rescue for the E294A nucleophilc mutant &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002b Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Catalytic Residues ==&lt;br /&gt;
The catalytic acid-base was first identified in ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' (Glu176) &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Debeche2002&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 (Glu175) alpha-arabinofuranosidases &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; using kinetic analysis, pH dependence profiles, and azide rescue of the catalytic mutant. The catalytic nucleophile was first identified in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' alpha-arabinofuranosidase through detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Three-dimensional structures ==&lt;br /&gt;
Three-dimensional structures for GH51 arabinofuranosidases are available for ''G. stearothermophilus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Hovel2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; ''C. thermocellum'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Taylor2006&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Paes2008&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  The enzyme in solution is a hexamer (can be described as a trimer of dimmers) and each monomer is organized into two domains: a ‘clan GH-A’ catalytic (β/α)8 domain and a 12-stranded beta sandwich with a jelly-roll topology.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Family Firsts ==&lt;br /&gt;
;First sterochemistry determination: ''Aspergillus niger'' and ''Aspergillus aculeatus'' alpha-L-arabinfuranosidases carried out in the presence of 2.5 M methanol and followed by 1H-NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
;First catalytic nucleophile identification: ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase  through detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002b&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
;First general acid/base residue identification: ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' and ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 alpha-L-arabinofuranosidases ''via'' detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue  &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- This is the end of the table --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Substrate specificities ==&lt;br /&gt;
The majority of the enzymes from this family hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between L-arabinofuranosides side chains of hemicelluloses such as arabinoxylan, arabinogalactan, and L-arabinan.  A few enzymes of the family exhibit beta 1-4 endoglucanase activity towards carboxy methyl cellulose and xylan &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Eckert2003&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is an example of how to make references to a journal article &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. (See the References section below).  Multiple references can go in the same place like this &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Comfort2007 He1999&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  You can even cite books using just the ISBN &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  References that are not in PubMed can be typed in by hand &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;MikesClassic&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Kinetics and Mechanism ==&lt;br /&gt;
Family GH51 L-arabinfuranosidases are retaining enzymes and follow a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism.  Due to the fast mutarotation and tautomerization rates of arabinose, the stereochemical course of the reaction was determined in presence of methanol and followed by NMR spectroscopy &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Pitson1996 Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;. Enzymes that have been well studied kinetically include the ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 and ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' alpha L-arabinofuranosidases, for which a detailed kinetic study was performed including kinetics with aryl-α-L-arabinofuranosides bearing various leaving groups, Brønsted plots for the E175A acid-base catalytic residue and azide-rescue for the E294A nucleophilc mutant &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002b Debeche2002 Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Catalytic Residues ==&lt;br /&gt;
The catalytic acid-base was first identified in ''Thermobacillus xylanilyticus'' (Glu176) &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Debeche2002&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; and in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' T-6 (Glu175) alpha-arabinofuranosidases &amp;lt;cite&amp;gt;Shallom2002a&amp;lt;/cite&amp;gt; using kinetic analysis, pH dependence profiles, and azide rescue of the catalytic mutant. The catalytic nucleophile was first identified in ''Geobacillus stearothermophilus'' alpha-arabinofuranosidase through detailed kinetic studies for the catalytic mutant including azide rescue.&lt;br /&gt;
