Properties
Description
It is a recombinant Bifidobacterium longum subsp α2,3/6 sialidase produced in E. coli. This product can be used to study the mode of action of the enzyme and its potential inhibitors, and can also be used as a glycoengineering tool to modify glycoprotein in vitro.
Unit Definition
One unit will catalyze the formation of 1 μmol Neu5Ac from Neu5Acα2,3/6 Galβ(1-4)Glc in one minute at 37°C.
Source
Bifidobacterium longum subsp
Applications
α2, 3/6 Neuraminidase catalyzes the hydrolysis of α2, 3, α2, 6 linked sialic acid residues from glycoproteins and oligosaccharides. And as a glycoengineering tool to modify glycoproteins in vitro.
