== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IABF_GEOSE IABF_GEOSE] Involved in the degradation of arabinan and is a key enzyme in the complete degradation of the plant cell wall. Catalyzes the cleavage of terminal alpha-(1->5)-arabinofuranosyl bonds in different hemicellulosic homopolysaccharides (branched and debranched arabinans). It acts preferentially on aryl-alpha-L-arabinofuranosides, and is much less effective on aryl-beta-D-xylopyranosides.<ref>PMID:11943144</ref> <ref>PMID:12221104</ref> <ref>PMID:14517232</ref> <ref>PMID:7887599</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
High-resolution crystal structures of alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase from Geobacillus stearothermophilus T-6, a family 51 glycosidase, are described. The enzyme is a hexamer, and each monomer is organized into two domains: a (beta/alpha)8-barrel and a 12-stranded beta sandwich with jelly-roll topology. The structures of the Michaelis complexes with natural and synthetic substrates, and of the transient covalent arabinofuranosyl-enzyme intermediate represent two stable states in the double displacement mechanism, and allow thorough examination of the catalytic mechanism. The arabinofuranose sugar is tightly bound and distorted by an extensive network of hydrogen bonds. The two catalytic residues are 4.7 A apart, and together with other conserved residues contribute to the stabilization of the oxocarbenium ion-like transition state via charge delocalization and specific protein-substrate interactions. The enzyme is an anti-protonator, and a 1.7 A electrophilic migration of the anomeric carbon takes place during the hydrolysis.
