General description
α-L-fucosidases is a liposomal enzyme, which belongs to glycosyl hydrolases family.
Application
α-L-fucosidase from bovine kidney has been used:
- to study their ability to alter primary cell transduction
- to examine the role of fucose residues of cell surface glycans in adhesion
- to investigate its role during fertilization
Biochem/physiol Actions
α-L-fucosidases degrades fucose-containing fucoglycoconjugates and breaks fucosidic bonds in oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. It acts as a tumor marker for hepatic and colorectal cancer. α-L-fucosidase exhibits transglycosylation property.
Unit Definition
One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of p-nitrophenyl α-L-fucoside to p-nitrophenol and L-fucose per min at pH 5.5 at 25°C.
