β-N-Acetylgalactosaminidase (EC3.2.1.53, N-acetyl-β-galactosaminidase, N-acetyl-β-D-galactosaminidase, β-acetylgalactosaminidase, β-D-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, N-acetylgalactosaminidase) is an enzyme with systematic nameβ-N-acetyl-D-galactosaminide N-acetylgalactosaminohydrolase.[1][2] It catalyses the hydrolysis of terminal non-reducing N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residues in N-acetyl-β-D-galactosaminides.
