Cellobiose is a disaccharide with the formula (C 6 H 7 (OH) 4 O) 2 O. It is classified as a reducing sugar - any sugar that possesses the ability or function of a reducing agent. The chemical structure of cellobiose is derived from the condensation of a pair of β-glucose molecules forming a β(1→4) bond. It can be hydrolyzed to glucose ...
This enzyme catalyses the hydrolysis of (1→4)-β-D-glucosidic linkages in cellulose and cellotetraose, releasing cellobiose from the non-reducing ends of the chains. CBH1 from yeast, for example, is composed of a carbohydrate binding site, a linker region and a catalytic domain. [ 6 ]
In enzymology, a cellobiose dehydrogenase (acceptor) (EC 1.1.99.18) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction cellobiose + acceptor ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } cellobiono-1,5-lactone + reduced acceptor
In enzymology, a cellobiose phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.20) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. cellobiose + phosphate alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate + D-glucose. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are cellobiose and phosphate, whereas its two products are alpha-D-glucose 1-phosphate and D-glucose.
In enzymology a cellobiose epimerase (EC 5.1.3.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction cellobiose ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } D-glucosyl-D-mannose Hence, this enzyme has one substrate , cellobiose , and one product , D-glucosyl-D-mannose .
Hydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-D-glucosidic linkages in cellulose and similar substrates, releasing cellobiose from the reducing ends of the chains. The CelS enzyme from Clostridium thermocellum is the most abundant subunit of the cellulosome formed by the organism.
The molecular form C 12 H 22 O 11 (molar mass: 342.29 g/mol, exact mass : 342.116212) may refer to: . Disaccharides. Allolactose; Cellobiose; Galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose; Gentiobiose (amygdalose)
In the case of the Christmas Island red crab β-glucosidase not only produces glucose, but also removes cellobiose. [15] This is important as cellobiose is an inhibitor for a number of enzymes including endo-β-1,4-glucanase and cellobiohydrolase. β-Glucosidase is also capable of hydrolysis on small oligomers that are produced by other enzymes ...
