This category comprises a lexicon of pages on key terms and concepts in CAZypedia. Specifically, the aim of the lexicon is to provide a precise definition of various specialized terms unique to carbohydrate chemistry[1, 2], as well as to provide a general overview of the catalytic mechanisms of the major CAZyme classes [3, 4, 5].
