Comment

(from Interpro) This is a family of type-C feruloyl esterases. Feruloyl esterases catalyze the hydrolysis of the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamoyl (feruloyl) group from an esterified sugar, which is usually arabinose in 'natural' substrates. FaeC from Aspergillus oryzae and Emericella nidulans have been shown to display hydrolytic activity towards arabinoxylan and methyl ferulate, among other substrates. Many proteins in the family have a Cellulose Binding Motif (CBM) or a Ricin_B_lectin motif shuffled either at N-terminus or C-terminus of the core alpha/beta hydrolase sequence. These have been excluded in the sequences used in alignment and BLAST base. Other less frequent extensions include IPR013784 Carb-bd-like_fold; IPR026444 Secre_tail; IPR008969 CarboxyPept-like_regulatory. Feruloyl esterases are distributed in different sub-classes type-A B C,D and E and fall respectively in the following families. Type-A in Lipase_3, Type-B in Esterase_phb (PHB depolymerase), Type-C in Tannase, Type-D in FaeC, Type-E in A85-Feruloyl-Esterase, Type-F in BD-FAE
