Function
H0868_AKKM8 Potentially capable of cleaving the specific glycoside linkages in the process of mucin degradation in human intestinal tract (Probable). Hydrolyzes chromogenic substrates pNP-beta-GlcNAc with high activity and pNP-beta-GalNAc to a lesser extent, but not pNP-beta-glucose or pNP-beta-galactose (PubMed:32819592).[1]
