Substrate specificities
A single report has disclosed fungal glycoside hydrolases with the ability to degrade a fungal heteropolysaccharide galactosaminogalactan (GAG) [1]. GAG is produced by Aspergillus fumigatus as an exopolysaccharide, which is α-1,4- linked galactose, N-acetylgalactosamine, and galactosamine residues, and which is found in both a secreted form and bound to the cell wall of hyphae. The recombinant protein purified and cell wall-associated GAG. While it is unclear precisely where within the GAG chain the enzyme acts, and thus whether it should be considered an α-galactosidase, α-galactosaminase or an α-galactosaminidase, and 3-D complex of the protein with N-acetylgalactosamine (see below) is suggestive that the enzyme possesses α-galactosaminidase activity.

Three-dimensional structures
Three-dimensional structures are available for one GH family 135 member, Aspergillus clavatus Sph3 [1]. This protein has a classical (β/α)8 TIM barrel fold.with similarities to glycoside hydrolase families 18,
27, and 84
