CAS 9024-13-9
:Chondroitin-sulfate-ABC endolyase
Description:
Chondroitin-sulfate-ABC endolyase, with the CAS number 9024-13-9, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans, specifically chondroitin sulfate. This enzyme catalyzes the endolytic cleavage of chondroitin sulfate chains, resulting in the production of oligosaccharides. It is classified as a lyase, which means it facilitates the breaking of chemical bonds by means other than hydrolysis or oxidation. Chondroitin-sulfate-ABC endolyase is typically derived from bacterial sources and is utilized in various biotechnological applications, including the study of glycosaminoglycan metabolism and the development of therapeutic agents for conditions such as osteoarthritis. The enzyme exhibits specificity for the glycosidic bonds in chondroitin sulfate, making it valuable for research in enzymology and carbohydrate chemistry. Its activity can be influenced by factors such as pH and temperature, and it is often studied in the context of its potential health benefits and applications in regenerative medicine.

Chondroitinase abc from proteus vulgaris
CAS:<p>Chondroitinase ABC is a bacterial enzyme, which is derived from Proteus vulgaris with the ability to degrade glycosaminoglycans, specifically targeting chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, and hyaluronic acid. This enzyme's mode of action involves the enzymatic cleavage of β-1,4 linkages between N-acetylgalactosamine and glucuronic acid residues in chondroitin sulfate, resulting in the breakdown of these polyanionic molecules into disaccharides.</p>
