Substrate specificities
Glycoside hydrolases of family 80 include bacterial proteins. They were characterized from proteobacteria [1] of from species belonging to the Bacteroidetes/Chlorobi group [2, 3]. They are beta-1,4-chitosanases with endo-splitting activity. Chitin or cellulose are not hydrolyzed [1, 3]. Chitosan hexamer (GlcN)6 is preferentially hydrolyzed into two trimeric molecules [4]. The chitosanases from family GH80 share a PROSITE signature motif with the chitosanases from family GH46 [5, 6].
Kinetics and Mechanism
No detailed studies available yet.
Catalytic Residues
A site-directed mutagenesis study of the chitosanase A from Matsuebacter chitosanotabidus 3001 (new name: Mitsuaria chitosanitabida [7]) identified two residues as essentiel for catalysis: Glu-121 (in the sequence YPENG)and Glu-141 (in the sequence DYEAA) [4].
Three-dimensional structures
No three-dimensional structure has been solved for this family.
