Application

Hemicellulase from Aspergillus niger has been used in enzyme digestions.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Hemicellulase is a group of enzymes that catalyzes the breakdown of heteropolysaccharides. It includes glucanases that act on glucan. Similarly, xylanases and mannanases breakdown xylan and mannan respectively. Hemicellulase is prevalent among various bacteria, fungi and plants.
