3.2.1.51	physiological function	role of this glycosidase in sperm-egg interactions in Drosophila. The oligosaccharide recognition ability of the enzyme with defined carbohydrate chains that can functionally mimic egg glycoconjugates is analzed. The enzyme binds to fucose residue and in particular it prefers N-glycans carrying core alpha1,6-linked fucose and core alpha1,3-linked fucose in N-glycans carrying only a terminal mannose residue	Drosophila melanogaster
3.2.1.51	physiological function	the enzyme interacts with the egg coats through its core fucose residues and has a potential role in sperm-egg interactions in Drosophila	Drosophila melanogaster
