Structural diversity of carbohydrate esterases
, 2017 Carbohydrate esterases (CEs) catalyze the de-O or de-N-acylation by removing the ester decorations from carbohydrates. CEs are currently classified in 15 families in the Carbohydrate-Active Enzyme (CAZy) database, which classifies a large variety of ...
