Cat No.
NATE-0341
Description
A Thermostable α-L-rhamnosidase that catalyzes the cleavage of the bond between terminal L (+)-rhamnose and the aglycone of rhamnose-containing glycosides. The enzyme is also very active on naringin. L-Rhamnose or its derivatives is a suitable chiral structural component and can be used for the synthesis of pharmaceutical products, plant protection agents and the preparation of fragrances in the foodstuffs and perfume industries.
Abbr
Hesperidinase, Native (Thermomicrobia sp.)
Species
Thermomicrobia sp.
Specificity
Hydrolysis of terminal non-reducing α-L-rhamnose residues in α-L-rhamnosides, Naringin, Hesperdin and Rutin.
Unit Definition
One unit (U) of enzyme activity is the amount that leads to the release of 1 μmol of p-nitro-phenyl-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (pnpR) per minute.
Optimum temperature
The enzyme in relatively active in a rather broad temperature range (45-75°C)with optimum around 65°C
Synonyms
Hesperidinase; α-L-rhamnosidase T; α-L-rhamnosidase N; α-L-rhamnosidase
