Quercitrinase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, a quercitrinase (EC 3.2.1.66) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

quercitrin + H₂O L-rhamnose + quercetin

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are quercitrin and H₂O, whereas its two products are L-rhamnose and quercetin.

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 quercitrin 3-L-rhamnohydrolase.
