α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase is a broad specificity exoglycosidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing α1-2, α1-3 and α1-6 linked mannose residues from oligosaccharides.
• Recombinant enzyme with no detectable endoglycosidase or other exoglycosidase contaminating activities
• Glycerol -free for optimal performance in HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis
• ≥95% purity, as determined by SDS-PAGE and intact ESI-MS
• Optimal activity and stability for up to 12 months
α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase, cloned from Jack Bean, and also known as JBM, is a broad specificity exoglycosidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of terminal α1-2, α1-3 and α1-6 linked mannose residues from oligosaccharides. α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase has a slight preference for α1-2 mannose residues over α1-3 and α1-6 mannose residues.
1X GlycoBuffer 4
Supplement with 1X Zinc
Incubate at 37°C
1X GlycoBuffer 4
50 mM sodium acetate
(pH 4.5 @ 25°C)
20 mM Tris-HCl
50 mM NaCl
pH 7.5 @ 25°C
Repeated freeze/thaw cycles may reduce activity. Recommended storage temperature is 4°C.
The optimal pH for α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase is 4.5. This differs from the majority of exoglycosidases, which have an optimal pH at 5.5.
Enzyme activity is enhanced by the presence of 2 mM Zn2+ in the reaction.
Using 1-2 µl is a good starting point for a 1 hr incubation of 1 µg of glycoprotein or 100 nM of oligosaccharide.
