Kappa-carrageenase (EC 3.2.1.83 kappa-carrageenan 4-beta-D-glycanohydrolase) is an enzyme with system name kappa-carrageenan 4-beta-D-glycanohydrolase (configuration-retaining). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction Endohydrolysis of (1->4)-beta-D-linkages between D-galactose 4-sulfate and 36-anhydro-D-galactose in kappa-carrageenansThe main products of hydrolysis are neocarrabiose-sulfate and neocarratetraose-sulfate.
