Glycoside Hydrolase Family 88

CAZypedia needs your help: This page is currently lacking a Responsible Curator and one or more Authors. If you are an expert on this family and would like to help us improve CAZypedia by getting involved with writing and maintaining this page, please contact the Primary Curator.

Undergraduate students, (post)graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, research associates, and professors are all welcomed to contribute!

• If you are interested in contributing to CAZypedia, please see the 10th anniversary publication [1] and this page for an overview of the content and mission of our community-driven resource. Future authors of CAZypedia can include the CAZypedia article [1] and cite individual pages in their curricula vitae to reflect their contribution.
• Until this CAZypedia page is completed, current information on the composition of this family is available via the corresponding page of the CAZy database [2]:
