Glucan 1,6-alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.70, exo-1,6-beta-glucosidase, glucodextrinase, glucan alpha-1,6-D-glucohydrolase) is an enzyme with systematic name glucan 6-alpha-D-glucohydrolase.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

Hydrolysis of (1->6)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in (1->6)-alpha-D-glucans and derived oligosaccharides

Hydrolysis is accompanied by inversion at C-1.
