Substrate specificities
Thus far only one member of the family has been characterised, BT1012 from bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. BT1012 displays apiosidase activity targeting apiose in the complex glycan rhamnogalacturonan ii (RGII). The apiose is found at the base of Chains A and B in RGII and linked α1,2 to the galacturonic acid backbone. Cleavage of the backbone must occur for BT1012 to then act.
Kinetics and Mechanism
GH140 uses a, retaining, double displacement mechanism. This was shown by methanolysis and analysis of the methyl-apiose product was done by HPLC and mass spectrometry.
Catalytic Residues
The catalytic residues are an aspartate and glutamate located on beta strands 4 and 7 respectively.
