6-aminohexanoate-oligomer exohydrolase EC#: 3.5.1.46; ChemWhat Code: 1381234
| Product Name | 6-aminohexanoate-oligomer exohydrolase |
| Example Structure |  |
| Synonyms | 6-aminohexanoate oligomer hydrolase, 6-aminohexanoate-dimer hydrolase, 6-aminohexanoic acid oligomer hydrolase, EII, EII’, Hyb-24DN, N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate amidohydrolase, NylB, NylCA, NylCK, NylCP2, nylon oligomer hydrolase, Nylon oligomers degrading enzyme EII, Nylon oligomers degrading enzyme EII’, nylon-oligomer degrading enzyme |
| EC Number | 3.5.1.46 |
| CAS Registry Number | 75216-15-8 |
| Comments | The enzyme is involved in degradation of nylon-6 oligomers. It degrades linear oligomers of 6-aminohexanoate with a degree of polymerization of 2-20 by exo-type cleavage, removing residues sequentially from the N-terminus. Activity decreases with the increase of the polymerization number of the oligomer.?cf. EC?3.5.1.117, 6-aminohexanoate-oligomer endohydrolase and EC?3.5.2.12, 6-aminohexanoate-cyclic-dimer hydrolase. |

| History | |
| Reactions | (1) (N-(6-aminohexanoyl))(n) + H(2)O = (N-(6-aminohexanoyl))(n-1) + 6-aminohexanoate. (2) N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate + H(2)O = 2 6-aminohexanoate. |
