Function Glycosidase probably involved in the intestinal absorption and metabolism of dietary flavonoid glycosides. Able to hydrolyze a broad variety of glycosides including phytoestrogens, flavonols, flavones, flavanones and cyanogens. Possesses beta- glycosylceramidase activity and may be involved in a nonlysosomal catabolic pathway of glycosylceramide. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11784319, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12594539, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17595169}.
