| Specific Function
| Virulence factor (PubMed:17041037). Involved in the degradation of glycogen of the mammalian host cells. Hydrolyzes the alpha-1,6-branchpoints of glycogen. Hydrolyzes pullulan. Does not hydrolyze dextran. Binds to mouse lung alveolar type II cells that are rich in glycogen stores. Is an alpha-glucan-specific carbohydrate-binding protein, which binds to amylose (pure alpha-(1,4)-linked glucose), amylopectin (alpha-(1,4)-linked glucose with alpha-(1,6) branch points), pullulan (linear polymer of mixed alpha-(1,4)- and alpha-(1,6)-linked glucose) and glycogen (similar to amylopectin with more frequent alpha-(1,6) branch points) in vitro. Does not bind to dextran (a linear polymer of alpha-(1,6)-linked glucose) (By similarity). |
