Figure 1. Hydrolysis reaction catalyzed by GA amidase. GA
cleaves the β-N-aspartylglucosylamine bond (indicated by the
bold arrow) of its natural substrate NAcGlc-Asn during
proteolytic processings of asparagine-linked glycoproteins,
resulting in the release of apartic acid and aminoglycan. The
latter product is then further hydrolyzed non-enzymatically to
release ammonia and oligosaccharide. Figure 1. Hydrolysis
