The enzyme vicianin β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.119) catalyzes the following chemical reaction:
- (R)-vicianin + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] mandelonitrile + vicianose
It belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosidases that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name is (R)-vicianin β-D-glucohydrolase. It is also called vicianin hydrolase.
