AbstractHelp

Alpha-glucuronidases belong to an ensemble of enzymes, which are central to the recycling of photosynthetic biomass. To date, all of the alpha-glucuronidases are classified as family 67 glycosidases, which catalyze the hydrolysis via the investing mechanism [1]. They hydrolyze the alpha1,2-glycosidic bond between 4-O-methyl-d-glucuronic acid (4-O-MeGlcA) and the xylan or xylooligosaccharide backbone [2]. They have three domains, the central of which is a (beta/alpha)(8) barrel, which houses the catalytic apparatus [3]. The carboxylate and methyl groups of aldobiouronic acid can act as substrate recognition determinants [1].
