CAZypedia needs your help!
We have many unassigned pages in need of Authors and Responsible Curators. See a page that's out-of-date and just needs a touch-up? - You are also welcome to become a CAZypedian. Here's how.
Scientists at all career stages, including students, are welcome to contribute.

Polysaccharide Lyase Families
This pages lists all the Polysaccharide Lyase (PL) Family pages in CAZypedia that have been given Curator Approved status, as well as those that are currently under construction.
The Lexicon entry Polysaccharide Lyases contains an introduction and overview to this class of enzymes. The classification mirrors that of the CAZy database [1], which itself is based on the sequence-based families of polysaccharide lyases as described by Lombard et al. [2].
Curator Approved
These pages have been approved by the Responsible Curator as essentially complete. CAZypedia is a living document, so further improvement of these pages is still possible; please see the individual pages for more information.
There are currently 17 Curator approved Polysaccharide Lyase (PL) Family pages in CAZypedia.
Under construction
These pages are currently under construction in CAZypedia. As such, the Responsible Curator has deemed that the page's content is not quite up to CAZypedia's standards for full public consumption. All information on these pages should therefore be considered to be under revision and may be subject to major changes.
There are currently 9 Polysaccharide Lyase Family pages Under construction in CAZypedia.
Unassigned pages
The following Unassigned pages are currently lacking a Responsible Curator and one or more Authors. If you are an expert on any of these families and would like to help us improve CAZypedia by getting involved with the production and maintenance of the corresponding page(s), please contact a member of the Board of Curators directly, or via this form.
There are currently 18 Polysaccharide Lyase Family pages in CAZypedia that have not been assigned to a Responsible Curator.
Deleted families
The following Polysaccharide Lyase families have been deleted from the CAZy database. Please see the individual CAZypedia pages and links to the corresponding CAZy DB pages for specific explanations.
There are currently 2 pages in CAZypedia that describe families deleted from the CAZy DB.
