β-Glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21; systematic name β-D-glucoside glucohydrolase) is an enzyme that catalyses the following reaction: [2] Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing β- D -glucosyl residues with release of β- D -glucose
Beta-glucosidase # EC 3.2.1.21 : is associated with Gaucher's disease: Lactase: EC 3.2.1.23 : one member of the β-galactosidase family, breaks down milk sugars, and its absence in adulthood causes lactose intolerance: Debranching enzyme # EC 3.2.1.33: in mammals, yeast and some bacteria, combines transferase and glucosidase activity in ...
The enzyme 6-phospho-β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.86) catalyzes the following reaction: . 6-phospho-β-D-glucosyl-(1,4)-D-glucose + H 2 O D-glucose + D-glucose 6-phosphateThis enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosidases that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds.

Inverting enzymes utilize two enzymic residues, typically carboxylate residues, that act as acid and base respectively, as shown below for a β-glucosidase. The product of the reaction has an axial position on C1, but some spontaneous changes of conformation can appear.
β-Glucocerebrosidase (also called acid β-glucosidase, D-glucosyl-N-acylsphingosine glucohydrolase, or GCase) is an enzyme with glucosylceramidase activity (EC 3.2.1.45) that cleaves by hydrolysis the β-glycosidic linkage of the chemical glucocerebroside, an intermediate in glycolipid metabolism that is abundant in cell membranes (particularly skin cells).

β-Glucuronidases are members of the glycosidase family of enzymes that catalyze breakdown of complex carbohydrates. [2] Human β-glucuronidase is a type of glucuronidase (a member of glycosidase Family 2) that catalyzes hydrolysis of β-D-glucuronic acid residues from the non-reducing end of mucopolysaccharides (also referred to as glycosaminoglycans) such as heparan sulfate.
The systematic name of this enzyme class is amygdalin beta-D-glucohydrolase. Other names in common use include amygdalase , amygdalinase , amygdalin hydrolase , and amygdalin glucosidase . It can be completely inhibited by the action of Glucono-δ-lactone at 1 mM concentration.
