Acts on starch, glycogen and related polysaccharides and oligosaccharides in a random manner; reducing groups are liberated in the alpha-configuration. The term "alpha" relates to the initial anomeric configuration of the free sugar group released and not to the configuration of the linkage hydrolysed.

4-alpha-D-glucan glucanohydrolase

maltooligosaccharide bind to the carbohydrate-binding domain, CBM58, of SusG. SusG is flexible in its carbohydrate selectivity because it binds to and degrades pullulan, amylopectin, and amylose. It shows low activity on alpha- and beta-cyclodextrins
determination of the structure of carbohydrate binding CBM58-binding site, the active site, and the surface starch-binding site, directly adjacent to the reducing end of the active site
SusG is composed of A, B, and C domains that share structural features with other amylases. The A domain, residues 43-152 and 364-607, has an eight-stranded alpha/beta barrel that contains the catalytic site, with the B domain, residues 153-215 and 336-363, inserted between beta3 and alpha3 of the A domain. The B domain consists of two two-stranded antiparallel beta sheets, two alpha helices, and three 310 helices that pack against the A domain and contribute to the size and accessibility of the active site. The C domain, residues 608-692, folds into an eight-stranded beta sandwich, structure model, overview
