In enzymology a poly(alpha-L-guluronate) lyase (EC 4.2.2.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionEliminative cleavage of polysaccharides containing a terminal alpha-L-guluronate group to give oligosaccharides with 4-deoxy-alpha-L-erythro-hex-4-enuronosyl groups at their non-reducing endsThis enzyme belongs to the family of lyases specifically those carbon-oxygen lyases acting on polysaccharides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is poly(alpha-L-14-guluronide) exo-lyase.
