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.

Properties & Usage

Unit Definition

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave > 95% of the terminal mannose from 1 nmol of Man(α1,3)-Man(β1,4)-GlcNAc-7-amino-4-methyl-coumarin (AMC), in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 10 µl.

Reaction Conditions

1X GlycoBuffer 4
Supplement with 1X Zinc
Incubate at 37°C

1X GlycoBuffer 4
50 mM sodium acetate
(pH 4.5 @ 25°C)

Storage Buffer

20 mM Tris-HCl
50 mM NaCl
pH 7.5 @ 25°C

Heat Inactivation

95°C for 10 minutes

Molecular Weight

Theoretical: 110 kDa

Unit Assay Conditions

Two fold dilutions of α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase are incubated with 1 nmol AMC-labeled substrate, 1X GlycoBuffer 4 and 1X Zinc in a 10 µl reaction. The reaction mix is incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. Separation of reaction products are visualized via thin layer chromatography (1).

Notes
  • α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase is a glycosylated protein. The theoretical molecular weight is 110 kDa, with two subunits at 66 kDa and 44 kDa (2).
  • The optimal pH for α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase is 4.5. Enzyme activity is enhanced by the presence of 2 mM Zn2+ in the reaction.
  • In order to achieve complete removal of all non-reducing terminalα-linked mannose residues, it may be necessary to use an increasedenzyme concentration as well as an overnight incubation time (18 hours).
  • To achieve complete removal of α1-6 mannose residues from a complexsubstrate, a sequential digest using α1-2,3,6 Mannosidase followed byα1-6 Mannosidase (NEB #P0727) may be necessary. 
  • Reactions may be scaled-up linearly to accommodate larger reaction volumes.
  • The amount of exoglycosidase enzyme required varies when differentsubstrates are used. Start with 1-2 μl for 1 μg of glycoprotein or 100nM of oligosaccharide for one hour in a 10-25 μl reaction. If there isstill undigested material, let the reaction go overnight.
