General description
Enzyme Commission (EC) Number 4.2.2.x
Biochem/physiol Actions
Chondroitinase C acts upon chondroitin sulfate C, releasing unsaturated 6-sulfated disaccharides. The enzyme also acts on hyaluronic acid, producing unsaturated nonsulfated disaccharides. The enzyme is strongly inhibited by NaCl, Fe2+, Co2+ and phosphate ions.
Unit Definition
One unit will form 0.1 μmole of unsaturated uronic acid per hr at pH 8.0 at 25 °C using chondroitin sulfate C as substrate.
