In enzymology, a glycyrrhizinate beta-glucuronidase (EC 3.2.1.128) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

glycyrrhizinate + H2O 1,2-beta-D-glucuronosyl-D-glucuronate + glycyrrhetinate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are glycyrrhizinate and H2O, whereas its two products are and glycyrrhetinate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, to be specific those glycosidases that hydrolyse O- and S-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is glycyrrhizinate glucuronosylhydrolase. Other names in common use include glycyrrhizin beta-hydrolase, glycyrrhizin hydrolase, and glycyrrhizinic acid hydrolase.
