The enzyme raucaffricine β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.125) catalyzes the following chemical reaction:

raucaffricine + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] D-glucose + vomilenine

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosidases that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is raucaffricine β-D-glucohydrolase. Other names in common use include raucaffricine β-D-glucosidase, and raucaffricine glucosidase. This enzyme participates in indole and ipecac alkaloid biosynthesis.
