β-Galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) is a glycoside hydrolase that breaks down β-glycosidic bonds between galactose and its organic parts. In E. coli, the lacZ gene is the structural gene for β-galactosidase, forming part of the lac operon's induction system. This enzyme can hydrolyze lactose into glucose and galactose, which then enter glycolysis.
Can catalyze the transgalactosylation of lactose into allolactose
Allolactose can further be broken into monosaccharides
