name: chitin disaccharide deacetylase activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "Catalysis of the reaction: 2-(acetylamino)-4-O-[2-(acetylamino)-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl]-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranose + H2O = 2-(acetylamino)-4-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranose + acetate." [EC:3.5.1.105, GOC:imk]
comment: In contrast to EC:3.5.1.41 (chitin deacetylase) this enzyme is specific for the chitin disaccharide.
