Ett enzym i isomerasklassen som katalyserar den avskiljande klyvningen av polysackarider, innehållande 1,4-kopplat D-glukuronat eller L-iduronatrester och 1,4-alfakopplade 2-sulfoamin-2-deoxi-6-sulfo-D-glukosrester, till oligosackarider med 4-deoxi-alfa-D-gluk-4-enuronosylgrupper på de icke-reducerande ytterändarna. EC 4.2.2.7.
An enzyme of the isomerase class that catalyzes the eliminative cleavage of polysaccharides containing 1,4-linked D-glucuronate or L-iduronate residues and 1,4-alpha-linked 2-sulfoamino-2-deoxy-6-sulfo-D-glucose residues to give oligosaccharides with terminal 4-deoxy-alpha-D-gluc-4-enuronosyl groups at their non-reducing ends. (From Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 4.2.2.7.
