An Endoglycosidase is an enzyme that releases oligosaccharides from glycoproteins or glycolipids. It may also cleave polysaccharide chains between residues that are not the terminal residue, although releasing oligosaccharides from conjugated protein and lipid molecules is more common. It breaks the glycosidic bonds between two sugar monomer in th...

Enzyme of the subclass EC 3.2 that has the ability to hydrolyze non-terminal glycosidic bonds in oligosaccharides or polysaccharides. Endoglycosidases F and H are often used as tools to determine the role of carbohydrate moiety on glycoproteins. Endo-F, the product of Flavobacterium meningosepticum , cleaves glycans of high mannose and complex type at the link to asparagine in the protein; Endo H is from Streptomyces spp . and is an endo- b-N-acetyl-glucosaminidase.
