Glycoside hydrolases EC 3.2.1. are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycoside hydrolases, based on sequence similarity, has led to the definition of >100 different families.[1][2][3] This classification is available on the CAZy web site,[4][5] and also discussed at CAZypedia, an online encyclopedia of carbohydrate active enzymes.[6][7]

Glycoside hydrolase family 2[8] comprises enzymes with several known activities: beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23); beta-mannosidase (EC 3.2.1.25); beta-glucuronidase (EC 3.2.1.31). These enzymes contain a conserved glutamic acid residue which has been shown,[9] in Escherichia coli lacZ (P00722), to be the general acid/base catalyst in the active site of the enzyme.

The catalytic domain of Beta-galactosidases have a TIM barrel core surrounded several other largely beta domains.[10] The sugar binding domain of these proteins has a jelly-roll fold.[10] These enzymes also include an immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwich domain.[10]
