Journal ArticleDOI
Glucuronide decomposition in the digestive tract.
TL;DR: In the rumen, omasum, cæcum and colon, the enzymes may well be of microbial origin, as has been shown for the sheep rumen enzyme1, and therefore surrounded by membranes of varying toughness and permeability.
Journal ArticleDOI
α-Mannosidase as a Zinc-dependent Enzyme
Sybil M. Snaith,G. A. Levvy +1 more
TL;DR: Observations that the active zinc–protein complex is readily dissociable at pH 5, the pH of optimum enzyme activity and the zinc ion can be displaced by cadmium, cobalt and other bivalent ions, with almost complete loss of enzyme activity are applied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mammalian glycosidases. 3. The intracellular localization of β-glucuronidase in different mammalian tissues

Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of glycosidases by aldonolactones of corresponding configuration. The specificity of α-l-arabinosidase
TL;DR: The effects of the different lactones on the barley preparation suggest that alpha-l-arabinosid enzyme activity is associated with the beta-galactosidase rather than with the enzyme that hydrolyses beta-glucosides and beta-d-fucoside.
