Abstract excerpt
Arthrobacter endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (Endo-A), a member of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 85, catalyses the hydrolysis and transglycosylation of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins with retention of anomeric configuration. Glu-173 of Endo-A is a catalytically essential amino acid residue, and the corresponding residue is conserved in all GH family 85 members. The catalytic activity of...
