| Description: | |
| Interpro abstract (IPR003610): | The carbohydrate-binding domain (CBD) is a short domain found in many different glycosyl hydrolase enzymes, such as the C-terminal cellulose-binding domain of endoglucanase Z (PUBMED:9405041). The domain has a core structure consisting of a 3-stranded meander beta-sheet, which contains six aromatic groups that may be important for binding. The overall topology of the CBD is structurally similar to the C-terminal chitin-binding domains (ChBD) of chitinase A1 and chitinase B, however the binding mechanism for the ChBD may be different from that of the CBD (PUBMED:10788483). |
| GO process: | carbohydrate metabolic process (GO:0005975) |
| GO component: | extracellular region (GO:0005576) |
| GO function: | carbohydrate binding (GO:0030246), hydrolase activity, hydrolyzing O-glycosyl compounds (GO:0004553) |
| Family alignment: |
