In enzymology, a tannase (EC 3.1.1.20) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
digallate + H2O 2 gallateThus, the two substrates of this enzyme are digallate and H2O, whereas its product is gallate.[1]
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is tannin acylhydrolase. Other names in common use include tannase S, and tannin acetylhydrolase.
In addition to catalyzing the hydrolysis of the central ester bond between the two aromatic rings of digallate (depsidaseactivity), tannase may also have anesteraseactivity (hydrolysis of terminal ester functional groups that are attached to only one of the two aromatic rings).[2]
Tannase is a key enzyme in the degradation of gallotannins, a type of hydrolysable tannins. It is present in a diverse group of microorganisms, including rumen bacteria.
What else can I help you with?
Can tannase be added as additive for removal of tea stains in cloth fabric. Can tannase if found stable in particular detergent used for removal of tea stains in the cloth fabric?
Tannase is often used as an additive to promote the removal of stained fabric, caused by a variety of things including tea. Tannase enzymes provide additional cleaning ability when broken down.
What switchs on enzyme activity while what can switch off or reduce enzyme activity?
Enzyme activators like cofactors or substrates can switch on enzyme activity by binding to the enzyme and promoting its function. Conversely, inhibitors can switch off or reduce enzyme activity by binding to the enzyme and preventing its normal function.
What kind of molecule is an enzyme-?
The type of molecule that is an enzyme is a protein molecule.
A protein catalyst is known as an?
Enzyme.
What is the name of the enzyme that activates another enzyme?
The enzyme that activates another enzyme is called a kinase. Kinases add phosphate groups to proteins, a process known as phosphorylation, which can activate or deactivate the target enzyme.
Can tannase be added as additive for removal of tea stains in cloth fabric. Can tannase if found stable in particular detergent used for removal of tea stains in the cloth fabric?
Tannase is often used as an additive to promote the removal of stained fabric, caused by a variety of things including tea. Tannase enzymes provide additional cleaning ability when broken down.
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
Does enzyme has proteins?
An enzyme is a protein
How effective is enzyme replacement therapy in treating enzyme deficiencies?
Enzyme replacement therapy is generally effective in treating enzyme deficiencies by providing the missing enzyme to the body. It can help improve symptoms and quality of life for patients with enzyme deficiencies.
What enzyme is responsible for fat digestion?
the lipase enzyme :)
What is an angiotensin converting enzyme?
An angiotensin converting enzyme is an enzyme which catalyzes the creation of angiotensin.
What is the active site for an enzyme?
The place where the substrate and the enzyme meet to allow the enzyme to function.
What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?
When an enzyme and substrate come together, it is called the enzyme-substrate complex. This complex is a temporary intermediate state in which the enzyme binds to the substrate to catalyze a chemical reaction.
What switchs on enzyme activity while what can switch off or reduce enzyme activity?
Enzyme activators like cofactors or substrates can switch on enzyme activity by binding to the enzyme and promoting its function. Conversely, inhibitors can switch off or reduce enzyme activity by binding to the enzyme and preventing its normal function.
What enzyme speeds up a chemical reaction is known as?
All enzyme's are catalysts for certain chemical reactions. Each enzyme will only work with a certain substrate one analogy being that the enzyme is a key and the substrate is a keyhole, and each enzyme has a unique enzyme.
Is fructase an enzyme?
There is no enzyme by the name "fructase." However, an enzyme called fructosidase catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose-containing compounds.
