Dual biological role of glycoside hydrolase family fifty-seven
glycogen branching enzymes

To shed some light on the substrate specificities and biological roles of GH57 GBEs, an extensive investigation including bioinformatics and in-depth biochemical characterization of a selected number of GH57 GBEs was performed. The results of these studies are included in this thesis.
