2-deoxyglucosidase

2-deoxyglucosidase

In enzymology, a 2-deoxyglucosidase (EC number|3.2.1.112) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:a 2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucoside + H2O ightleftharpoons 2-deoxy-D-glucose + an alcohol

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucoside and H2O, whereas its two products are 2-deoxy-D-glucose and alcohol.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosidases that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucoside deoxyglucohydrolase. Other names in common use include 2-deoxy-alpha-glucosidase, and 2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucosidase.
