Inhibition of glycosidases by aldonolactones of corresponding configuration. The C-4- and C-6-specificity of beta-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase. 1967

J Conchie, and A L Gelman, and G A Levvy

1. In barley, beta-glucosidase and beta-galactosidase are separate enzymes. The former also displays beta-d-fucosidase activity. 2. In the limpet, Patella vulgata, beta-glucosidase activity is associated with the beta-d-fucosidase, previously shown to be a separate entity from the beta-galactosidase also present. 3. Almond emulsin presents all three activities as a single enzyme. Each is equally inhibited by glucono-, galactono- and d-fucono-lactone. 4. In rat epididymis, there is no significant beta-glucosidase activity, nor is there appreciable inhibition of the beta-galactosidase and beta-d-fucosidase activities of the preparation by gluconolactone.

D002523 Edible Grain SEEDS used as a major nutritional source, most often the grain from the POACEAE family. Cereals,Cereal Grain,Cereal,Cereal Grains,Edible Grains,Grain, Cereal,Grain, Edible,Grains, Cereal,Grains, Edible
D004822 Epididymis The convoluted cordlike structure attached to the posterior of the TESTIS. Epididymis consists of the head (caput), the body (corpus), and the tail (cauda). A network of ducts leaving the testis joins into a common epididymal tubule proper which provides the transport, storage, and maturation of SPERMATOZOA.
D005696 Galactosidases A family of galactoside hydrolases that hydrolyze compounds with an O-galactosyl linkage. EC 3.2.1.-. Galactosidase
D005959 Glucosidases Enzymes that hydrolyze O-glucosyl-compounds. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 3.2.1.-. Glucosidase
D006027 Glycosides Any compound that contains a constituent sugar, in which the hydroxyl group attached to the first carbon is substituted by an alcoholic, phenolic, or other group. They are named specifically for the sugar contained, such as glucoside (glucose), pentoside (pentose), fructoside (fructose), etc. Upon hydrolysis, a sugar and nonsugar component (aglycone) are formed. (From Dorland, 28th ed; From Miall's Dictionary of Chemistry, 5th ed) Glycoside
