Galactofuranose is a rare form of the well-known galactose sugar, and its occurrence in numerous pathogenic micro-organisms makes the enzymes responsible for its biosynthesis interesting targets. This review summarizes the role of these carbohydrate-related proteins with a special emphasis on the galactofuranosidases recently characterized as an efficient recombinant biocatalyst.
