The enzyme glucuronosyl-disulfoglucosamine glucuronidase (EC 3.2.1.56) catalyzes the following chemical reaction:

3-D-glucuronosyl-N2,6-disulfo-β-D-glucosamine + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] D-glucuronate + N2,6-disulfo-D-glucosamine

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 3-D-glucuronsyl-N2,6-disulfo-β-D-glucosamine glucuronohydrolase. Other names in common use include glycuronidase, and 3-D-glucuronsyl-2-N,6-disulfo-β-D-glucosamine glucuronohydrolase.
