| Analysis Note: | An undefined mixture of glycolytic enzymes usually containing xylanase, mananase and other activities. |
| Application: | Hemicellulase from Aspergillus niger has been used in enzyme digestions. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Hemicellulase is a group of enzymes that catalyzes the breakdown of heteropolysaccharides. It includes glucanases that act on glucan. Similarly, xylanases and mannanases breakdown xylan and mannan respectively. Hemicellulase is prevalent among various bacteria, fungi and plants. |
