Hypothetical glycosyl hydrolase 6. GHL6 is a family of hypothetical glycoside hydrolases.

Beta-galactosidase trimerisation domain. This is non catalytic domain B of beta-galactosidase enzymes belong to the glycosyl hydrolase 42 family. This domain is related to glutamine amidotransferase enzymes, but the catalytic residues are replaced by non functional amino acids. This domain is involved in trimerisation.

A4 beta-galactosidase middle domain: a type 1 glutamine amidotransferase (GATase1)-like domain. A4 beta-galactosidase middle domain: a type 1 glutamine amidotransferase (GATase1)-like domain. This group includes proteins similar to beta-galactosidase from Thermus thermophilus. Beta-Galactosidase hydrolyzes the beta-1,4-D-galactosidic linkage of lactose, as well as those of related chromogens, o-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (ONP-Gal) and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-beta-D-galactoside (X-gal). This A4 beta-galactosidase middle domain lacks the catalytic triad of typical GATase1 domains. The reactive Cys residue found in the sharp turn between a beta strand and an alpha helix termed the nucleophile elbow in typical GATase1 domains is not conserved in this group.

Alpha-L-fucosidase. O-Glycosyl hydrolases (EC 3.2.1.-) are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycosyl hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of 85 different families. This classification is available on the CAZy (CArbohydrate-Active EnZymes) web site. Because the fold of proteins is better conserved than their sequences, some of the families can be grouped in 'clans'. Family 29 encompasses alpha-L-fucosidases, which is a lysosomal enzyme responsible for hydrolyzing the alpha-1,6-linked fucose joined to the reducing-end N-acetylglucosamine of the carbohydrate moieties of glycoproteins. Deficiency of alpha-L-fucosidase results in the lysosomal storage disease fucosidosis.
