- Glycosphingolipid deacylase
In
enzymology , a glycosphingolipid deacylase (EC number|3.5.1.69) is anenzyme that catalyzes achemical reaction that cleavesganglioside s and neutralglycosphingolipid s, releasingfatty acid s to form the lyso-derivatives.This enzyme belongs to the family of
hydrolase s, specifically those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in linear amides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is glycosphingolipid amidohydrolase. This enzyme is also called glycosphingolipid ceramide deacylase.References
