Expression and Characterization of a β-Galactosidase from the Pacific Oyster, <i>Crassostrea gigas,</i> and Evaluation of Strategies for Testing Substrate Specificity

β-Galactosidases (EC 3.2.1.23) are exoglycosidases that catalyze the cleavage of glycoconjugates with terminal β-D-galactose residues in β1,3-, β1,4- or β1,6-linkage. Although this family of exoglycosidases has been extensively studied in vertebrates, plants, yeast, and bacteria, little information...
