Properties
Description
α-(1-2,3,4,6)-L-Fucosidase from Homo sapiens, a glycosidase, hydrolyzes the α-1,6-linked fucose relating to the reducing-end N-acetylglucosamine on glycoproteins.
Unit Definition
One unit of α-L-fucosidase activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to release one µmole of p-nitrophenol (pNP) per minute from p-nitrophenyl-α-L-fucopyranoside (1 mM) in sodium acetate buffer (100 mM) at pH 4.0 at the temperatures indicated.
Applications
α-(1-2,3,4,6)-L-Fucosidase from Homo sapiens can be used for glycobiology research.
