Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following are examples of hydrolytic enzymes, used in active chemical defense?
A
Cellulase
B
Chitinase
C
Glucogenase
D
Glucanase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Enzymatic hydrolysis can occur in plasma for certain drugs. A large number of enzymes are present in blood for natural functions, but can also catalyze drug decomposition. These include cholinesterase, aldolase, lipase, dehydropeptidase, alkaline and acid phosphatase, glucuronidase, dehydrogenase, and phenol sulfatase.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main function of glucanase is to catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds in polysaccharides. This function is not highly specific, and the enzymes distinguish among substrates mostly by the types of bonds present and -or -configuration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Beta Glucanase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes -glucans. The most important -glucanases for brewing are those that break down the -glucans located in the cell walls of the barley endosperm.
