== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/AGAD_ZOBGA AGAD_ZOBGA] Cleaves the beta-1,4-linkages between beta-D-galactose and alpha-L-3,6-anhydro-galactose residues in agarose. Cleaves agarose in a random manner with retention of the anomeric-bond configuration, producing beta-anomers that give rise progressively to alpha-anomers when mutarotation takes place. Requires at least 4 consecutive agarose units and is highly intolerant to modifications.<ref>PMID:22778272</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Zobellia galactanivorans is an emerging model bacterium for the bioconversion of algal biomass. Notably this marine Bacteroidetes possesses a complex agarolytic system comprising 4 beta-agarases and 5 beta-porphyranases, all belonging to the glycoside hydrolase family 16. While beta-agarases are specific for the neutral agarobiose motives, the recently discovered beta-porphyranases degrade the sulfated polymers found in various quantities in natural agars. Here we report the biochemical and structural comparison of five beta-porphyranases and beta-agarases from Z. galactanivorans. The respective degradation patterns of two beta-porphyranases and three beta-agarases are analyzed by their action on defined hybrid oligosaccharides. In the light of the high resolution crystal structures the biochemical results allow a detailed mapping of substrate specificities along the enzymes active site groove. While PorA displays a strict requirement for C6-sulfate in the -2 and +1 binding subsites, PorB tolerates the presence of 3-6-anhydro-L-galactose in subsite -2. Both enzymes do not accept methylation of the galactose unit in the -1 subsite. The beta-agarase AgaD requires at least five consecutive agarose units (DP10) and is highly intolerant to modifications, whereas for AgaB oligosaccharides containing C6-sulfate groups at the -4, +1 and +3 positions are still degraded. Together with a transcriptional analysis of the expression of these enzymes, the structural and biochemical results allow proposition of a model scheme for the agarolytic system of Z. galactanivorans.
