Chondroitin ABC lyase
Chondroitin ABC lyase (EC 4.2.2.4, chondroitinase, chondroitin ABC eliminase, chondroitinase ABC) is an enzyme with system name chondroitin ABC lyase.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- Eliminative degradation of polysaccharides containing 1,4-beta-D-hexosaminyl and 1,3-beta-D-glucuronosyl or 1,3-alpha-L-iduronosyl linkages to disaccharides containing 4-deoxy-beta-D-gluc-4-enuronosyl groups
This enzyme acts on chondroitin 4-sulfate, chondroitin 6-sulfate and dermatan sulfate.
