Substrate specificities

The two known members of glycoside hydrolase family 82 enzymes cleave the β-1,4 galactosidic bond of the marine algal polysaccharide iota-carrageenan [1] yielding products of the neocarrabiose series.

Kinetics and Mechanism

Family 82 enzymes are inverting enzymes, as first shown by NMR [1] on the iota-carrageenase from Alteromonas fortis.

Family Firsts

First sterochemistry determination

GH82 enzymes are inverting as shown by NMR [1].

First general acid residue identification

First general base residue identification

First 3-D structure

iota-carrageenase from Alteromonas fortis [2]. The structure belongs to the β-helix fold (PDB 1h80 and PDB 1ktw).
