Substrate specificities
Alpha-galactosidase and alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase activity has been demonstrated in archaeal, bacterial, and eukaryotic members of this family. Additionally, certain plant members of this family possess stachyose synthase or raffinose synthase activity.
Kinetics and Mechanism
Family GH36 alpha-galactosidases are anomeric configuration-retaining enzymes, like their Family GH27 relatives in Clan GH-D, as first shown by NMR [1]. In addition to NMR data, mutagenesis and azide rescue experiments in this study [1] established that Clan GH-D enzymes in both GH27 and GH36 use a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism. Enzymes that have been well-studied kinetically include the Cellulomonas fimi endo-glycanase (Cex)*, for which a detailed kinetic study involving both steady state and pre-steady state kinetic analyses was performed [2]. Recent studies of the roles of each substrate hydroxyl in catalysis have also been described [3]. Detailed analyses of substrate and subsite specificities of the Pseudomonas cellulosa xylanase have also been described [4].
