BioCyc:RXN-19763

This reaction describes endo-hydrolysis of a polymeric compound. The substrate should be shown as (1,4-β-D-galactosyl)(n+m), while the two products should be (1,4-β-D-galactosyl)n and (1,4-β-D-galactosyl)m, respectively. These coefficients are not displayed properly due to limitations in the software.

beta-1-4-Galactan + WATER --> 2 beta-1-4-Galactan

a (1→4)-β-D-galactan[] + H2O[H2O] = 2 a (1→4)-β-D-galactan[]
