Substrate specificities
Carbohydrate esterase family 6 (CE6) comprises only acetylxylan esterases (EC 3.1.1.72) - an activity also found in families CE2, CE3, CE4, CE5, CE7, and CE12 [1].
Kinetics and Mechanism
CE6 acetyl xylan esterases target the 2-, 3- or 2,3-linked O-acetyl substituents on the β-1,4-linked xylopyranosyl moieties that comprise the xylan backbone.
