Galactan endo-16-beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.164 endo-16-beta-galactanase) is an enzyme with system name endo-beta-(1->6)-galactanase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction Endohydrolysis of (1->6)-beta-D-galactosidic linkages in arabinogalactan proteins and (1->3):(1->6)-beta-galactans to yield galactose and (1->6)-beta-galactobiose as the final productsThe enzyme specifically hydrolyses 16-beta-D-galactooligosaccharides with a degree of polymerization (DP) higher than 3.
