The Polysaccharide Lyases (PLs) have been grouped into families and subfamilies within the Carbohydrate-Active Enzyme (CAZy) classification framework [1]. Presently, this class of enzymes has not received specific attention in CAZypedia. However, if you are an expert on one or more PL families and would like to contribute to the creation of entries in CAZypedia, please contact the Board of Curators directly, or via this form.

Current information on PL families and members may be found on the Polysaccharide Lyase page in the CAZy database. Please also see the following reviews on PL classification, specificities, and structures [1, 2]
