Product Description
Sialidase, N-acetylneuraminate glycohydrolase, Exo-alpha-sialidase
α(2-3) Neuraminidase Sp cleaves exclusively the non-reducing terminal α(2-3) unbranched sialic acid residues from complex carbohydrates and glycoproteins. There is no detectable activity on α(2-6) or α(2-8) linkages or on branched α(2-3) linkages . To cleave all non-reducing terminal sialic acid residues including branched sialic acids (linked to an internal residue) from complex carbohydrates and glycoproteins, use α(2-3,6,8,9) Neuraminidase Au (E-S001).

5x Reaction Buffer 250 mM sodium phosphate, pH 6.0
Specific Activity ≥ 250 U/mg
Activity ≥ 10 U/ml
Molecular weight~75,000 daltons
pH optimum 6.0
Suggested usage 1. Add up to 100 μg of glycoprotein or 1 nmol of oligosaccharide to tube.
2. Add water to 14 μL

Desialylation may be monitored by SDS-PAGE if the size differential between native and desialylated protein is sufficient for detection.
Specifictity Cleaves the non-reducing terminal alpha-(2-3) unbranched sialic acid residues from complex carbohydrates and glycoproteins.
Specific Activity Defined as the amount of enzyme required to produce 1 µmole of methylumbelliferone in 1 minute at 37˚C, pH 5.0 from MU-NANA [2′-(4-methylumbelliferyl)-alpha-D-N-acetylneuraminic acid].
Storage Store enzyme at 4˚C.
