Product name:Beta-glucuronidase
CAS:9001-45-0
Specification:100ku
Description:
Beta-glucuronidases are members of the glycosidase family of enzymes that catalyze breakdown of complex carbohydrates.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. Human β-glucuronidase is located in the lysosome.In the gut, brush border β-glucuronidase converts unconjugated bilirubin to the conjugated form for reabsorption. β-glucuronidase is also present in breast milk, and its action contributes to neonatal jaundice.
