α2-3 Neuraminidase S is a highly specific exoglycosidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of α2-3 linked N-acetylneuraminic acid residues from oligosaccharides and glycoproteins.

  • 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 24 months
Neuraminidase is the common name for Acetyl-neuraminyl hydrolase (Sialidase). α2-3 Neuraminidase S is a highly specific exoglycosidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of α2-3 linked N-acetylneuraminic acid residues from glycoproteins and oligosaccharides.

Properties & Usage

Unit Definition

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave > 95% of the terminal α-Neu5Ac from 1 nmol Neu5Acα2-3Galβ1- 3GlcNAcβ1-3Galβ1-4Glc-AMC, in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 10 μl.

Reaction Conditions

1X GlycoBuffer 1
Incubate at 37°C

1X GlycoBuffer 1
5 mM CaCl2
50 mM sodium acetate
(pH 5.5 @ 25°C)

Storage Buffer

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

Heat Inactivation

65°C for 10 minutes

Molecular Weight

Unit Assay Conditions

Two fold dilutions of α2-3 Neuraminidase S are incubated with 1 nmol AMClabeled substrate and 1X GlycoBuffer 1 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
  • Reactions may be scaled-up linearly to accommodate larger reaction volumes.
  • The amount of exoglycosidase enzyme required varies when different substrates are used. Start with 1–2 μl for 1 μg of glycoprotein or 100 nM of oligosaccharide for one hour in a 10–25 μl reaction. If there is still undigested material, let the reaction go overnight.
  • If α2-3 Neuraminidase S is used in excess, or subjected to longer incubation times (24hr+), minor α2-6 Neuraminidase activity may occur.
