Glycosylase
Glycosylases (EC 3.2) are enzymes that hydrolyze glycosyl compounds.{{cite web | title=Enzyme Nomenclature Recommendations | publisher=Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology | url=http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/EC3/2/ | accessdate=2013-06-23 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160917205637/http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/EC3/2/ | archive-date=2016-09-17 | url-status=dead }} They are a type of hydrolase (EC 3). In turn, glycosylases are divided into two groups: glycosidases—enzymes that hydrolyze O- and S-glycosyl compounds (EC 3.2.1) -- and enzymes that hydrolyze N-glycosyl compounds (EC 3.2.2).
