Substrate specificities
Only a single glycoside hydrolase of family GH113 has been characterized, intracellular AaManA from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius Tc-12-31 [1]. This thermoacidophilic organism was originally selected for its ability to hydrolyse konjac glucomannan [1]. The recombinantly-expressed enzyme possessed activity against polysaccharides containing β-1,4-mannosidic linkages, including significant activity against konjac glucomannan, and galactomannan from locust bean gum. Some activity was also observed against crystalline ivory nut mannan (an unsubstituted β-1,4-mannan) and guar gum (a more highly-substituted galactomannan) [1]. No activity was observed against the other polysaccharides and p-nitrophenyl glycosides tested, including p-nitrophenyl β- and α-mannosides.
