“…In recent years, novel GH70 enzymes inactive on sucrose, but displaying clear disproportionating activity on starch/ maltodextrin substrates, have been identified (Table 3) (Gangoiti et al 2015;Gangoiti, Pijning, and Dijkhuizen 2016;Gangoiti, Lamothe, et al 2017;Gangoiti, van Leeuwen, Gerwig, et al 2017;Gangoiti, van Leeuwen, Meng, et al 2017;Kralj et al 2011;Leemhuis, Dijkman, et al 2013). Regarding their substrate specificity, these starch-converting GH70 enzymes resemble GH13 family enzymes also acting on starch-like substrates, however, they share higher amino acid sequence similarity with GS from the GH70 family.…”
