Substrate specificities

Glycoside hydrolases of GH139 family ([www.cazy.org/GH139.html CAZy]) display the novel a-2-O-methyl-L-fucosidase activity (EC…….). The enzyme BT0984 from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron is the only member of this family that has been characterized. This exo-enzyme targets the a-2-O-methyl-L-fucose at chain B of the complex rhamnogalacturonan-II present in the plants cell wall. All of genes encoding family 139 members are found in bacteria.
