Abstract
The recently described rhamnogalacturonase B, which is able to degrade ramified hairy regions of pectin, was found to be a rhamnogalacturona n opyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-o-galactopyranosyluronide lyase. The cleava ge site and mechanism differ from that of the previously described rha mnogalacturonase A, which is a hydrolase and can now be termed rhamnog alacturonan topyranosyluronide-(1-->2)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl hydrola se.
