Description: | O-Glycosyl hydrolases () 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.Glycoside hydrolase family 56 comprises enzymes with only one known activity; hyaluronidase .The venom of Apis mellifera(Honeybee) contains several biologically-active peptides and two enzymes, one of which is a hyaluronidase []. The amino acid sequenceof bee venom hyaluronidase contains 349 amino acids, and includes four cysteines and a number of potential glycosylation sites []. The sequenceshows a high degree of similarity to PH-20, a membrane protein of mammalian sperm involved in sperm-egg adhesion, supporting the view that hyaluronidasesplay a role in fertilisation [].PH-20 is required for sperm adhesion to the egg zona pellucida; it is located on both the sperm plasma membrane and acrosomal membrane []. Theamino acid sequence of the mature protein contains 468 amino acids, and includes six potential N-linked glycosylation sites and twelve cysteines,eight of which are tightly clustered near the C terminus []. | Short Name: | Hyaluronidase |
