Substrate specificities
The glycoside hydrolases of this family are exo-acting α-fucosidases from archaeal, bacterial and eukaryotic origin. No other activities have been observed for GH29 family members. Normal.dotm 0 0 1 10 62 AFMB 1 1 76 12.0 0 false 21 18 pt 18 pt 0 0 false false false So fare the only other CAZY family containing α-fucosidases is family GH95. The human enzyme FucA1 is of medical interest because its deficiency leads to fucosidosis, an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease [1].
